I am looking for some information that will be helpful in writing a
research paper (3-5 pages) concerning the affects that the unification
of Europe's monetary system (conversion to the Euro) has had on the
participating countries' economies, as well as the European economy as
a whole.  A best case senario would be how the process actually took
place as well as some sort of before and after compare/contrast on how
the monetary infrastructures dealt with the conversion.
