Eckhard Janeba (@econunimannheim.bsky.social) & Martin Larch argue that while the 2024 EU fiscal framework reform represents a notable conceptual advance, its effectiveness depends on genuine political commitment and consistent enforcement.

#EconSky
Cumulative differences between medium-term fiscal-structural plans and Commission reference trajectories: Net expenditure versus nominal GDP growth (percentage points). ‘Cumulative’ refers to the programme period of 4 or 5 years. The 2024 reform of the European Union’s fiscal framework promises long-term sustainability through greater national ownership and country-specific medium-term expenditure paths. This column argues, however, that its hurried implementation, lack of transparency, and weaker multilateral oversight risk undermining both credibility and coherence. Early experience suggests that while the reform represents a notable conceptual advance, its effectiveness depends on genuine political commitment and consistent enforcement – two ingredients that have repeatedly eluded Europe’s fiscal governance.

The Kimberley Process Certification Scheme for diamonds significantly reduced armed conflict, suggesting it was successful in limiting rebel groups' ability to finance violent activities.

Natural resources, including alluvial minerals such as diamonds, have been at the centre of brutal wars in Africa. This column evaluates one of the first schemes aimed at preventing the illicit exploitation of natural resources to promote peace: the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme. The introduction of the diamond certification scheme significantly reduced armed conflict. Rebel groups were less likely to engage in armed conflict, and their operations became geographically more concentrated. This suggests that the certification scheme was successful in limiting rebel groups’ ability to finance violent activities.
