The system of EU Own Resources undergoes disruptive changes. The EU finalized a new Multiannual
Financial Framework decided on huge extra spending under the paramount Next Generation EU
program and took loans. These changes have been accompanied by large-scale ECB and ESCB
programs. While some observers prefer a more traditional thus more reluctant financial
framework others dream of a Hamiltonian moment or debate about the introduction of a genuine
European tax. Next to political and economic uncertainties each of these steps triggers
intri-cate legal questions.These questions are analyzed in this book. Thorough papers by Martin
Nettesheim and Edoardo Traversa as well as further clear-cut statements by prominent experts
contribute to a lively debate on the financial future of Europe.
