The unequal Europeanization of public policies, the resulting insulation of monetary and financial policies, and the prevalence of intergovernmental negotiation, are generally congruent with a neo-liberal " rferntiel ' advocating a depoliticization of public regulation.The open mode of co-ordination, in its present forms, does not counterbalance the decline of the public debate induced by this reordering of the policy forums.
