Two traditionally conflicting views are relevant to the discussion. At one extreme is the so-called coronation theory, according to which the passage to a higher stage of monetary integration should only ratify (or "crown") the convergence that has already been achieved. The arguments used to support this position differ. Some take the view that given the existing wide differences in levels of economic welfare, premature fixing of exchange rates would lead to political pressures, not only for increased budgetary transfers from richer to poorer regions, but also for easier monetary policy to promote growth. Others argue that an early fixing of exchange rate parities would aggravate regional disparities and impart a deflationary bias to the monetary union. At the other extreme, the so-called monetarist school holds that convergence could always be achieved through adherence to exchange rate commitments, which could therefore be taken without any preceding convergence. 1980 1982 1984 1986 1988 1990 Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
