欧盟委员会、欧洲央行和国际货币基金组织在向陷入危机的欧洲国家提供金融援助时,经常在金融稳定、财政政策和结构调整等贷款条件问题上发生冲突。这是令人费解的,因为这三个组织对如何解决危机、其原因和紧缩的必要性有着共同的理解,并且受到相同的主要利益相关者的监督。我们认为,这些相互矛盾的财政援助方式是不同官僚文化的结果。根据对爱尔兰和希腊的贷款计划的经验证据,我们表明,“三驾马车”机构所表达的偏好在各国之间是一致的,并反映了一致的信贷方法。该基金扮演了“会计师”的角色,力求确保“数字相加”,以便按期偿还贷款。委员会扮演“欧洲主义者”的角色,将条件与欧洲规则和条约的兼容性解释为恢复竞争力的一种方式。欧洲央行作为“三驾马车”的“货币守护者”,致力于确保整个欧元区的金融和货币稳定。
When the European Commission, the European Central Bank and the International Monetary Fund provided financial assistance to crisis-ridden European countries, they frequently clashed over loan conditions related to financial stability, fiscal policy and structural adjustment. This is puzzling given that the three organizations shared a general understanding of how to resolve the crisis, its causes and the need for austerity and were supervised by the same major stakeholders. We argue that these conflicting approaches to financial assistance are the result of distinct bureaucratic cultures. Drawing on empirical evidence from the loan programs to Ireland and Greece we show that preferences voiced by Troika institutions were consistent across countries and reflected coherent approaches to credit lending. The Fund played the role of an ‘Accountant’, seeking to ensure that ‘the numbers add up’ so that its loans are repaid on schedule. The Commission acted as an ‘Europeanist’, interpreting the compatibility of conditions with European rules and treaties as a way to regain competitiveness. The European Central Bank, as the ‘Monetary Guardian’ of the Troika, focused on securing financial and monetary stability for the Eurozone as a whole.
