Abstract: The European Central Bank (ECB) is the least accountable central bank among advanced nations. Its degree of independence has only one precedence: the German Reichsbank, a central bank with one of history’s most disastrous records. The lessons of German history do not seem to be interpreted correctly by the ECB.
