British opposition to joining the European Union and the imposition of a single European currency has been dubbed "Euroscepticism." Holmes (politics, St Hugh's College, Oxford, UK) presents 13 papers that present the case for Euroscepticism in the political and economic spheres. Among the topics addressed are the underperformance of the euro, the threat of the single currency to employment and growth, the lack of flexibility in the EU, and the threat to British self government.
