Peter Kenen argued in the late 1960 s that without exchange rate movements as a shock absorber, a currency union requires fiscal transfers as a way to share risk.

On balance, the euro has been a success, but it does balance gains from price transparency and decreased transaction costs against the loss of independent monetary policies and a currency adjustment shock absorber.

With no separate currencies to adjust, the only shock absorber left is labor migration to areas with lower unemployment for example, from southern to northern Europe. Such migration is easier in the US than within the euro zone or even within European countries.

The case of Spain illustrates another feature of European economies that makes it difficult to argue for a federal unemployment scheme. Spanish unemployment is now close to 30 , which a priori should be a good justification for some form of shock absorber.

The other natural shock absorber is a depreciating currency, which increases competitiveness in the area hit hardest. That cannot happen with a common currency, and economic adjustment is doubly difficult when labor is not mobile enough to help mitigate regional contractions in income and unemployment.
