Will voters turn out in the 2014 European
parliamentary elections? – Bruegel
The next European
parliament will be the most fragmented ever. Don't expect it to accomplish much
of anything. On the other hand, look for center-left and center-right blocs to
align, if only for the purpose of stopping the fragmented groups of Eurosceptics
from achieving any real power. Meanwhile, absolutely nothing in the EU has been
fixed or will be fixed. At some point, this simmering stew will boil over in a
major way.

As Europe experiences disinflation and worries about
deflation risks, a number of policymakers have advanced the idea that deflation
is not necessarily a bad thing. Deflation, it is sometimes argued, increases

associated with positive supply shocks as several historical episodes suggest.
