The Impact of the Crisis on Fundamental Rights Across Member States of the EU
註釋The impact of the crisis on Ireland was very severe. Unemployment rates have more than doubled since 2008 and GDP and inflation levels have decreased significantly. Ireland negotiated a bailout programme with the European Commission, the European Central Bank and the International Monetary Fund (the troika), which implied strict conditions. These conditions were transformed into austerity policies and concrete austerity measures which affected a large number of fundamental rights enshrined in the Irish Constitution, the ECHR, the ESC and many other human rights instruments. Ireland exited the crisis when it exited the bailout programme in December 2013. However, the conclusion that Ireland has exited the crisis has been contested by many people e.g. economists at the Central Bank of Ireland, the IMF's Managing Director Christine Lagarde and The Economist newspaper.--
