• Languages of publication: PL

The objective of this paper is to identify macroeconomic shocks in the euro area and to define their degree of similarity. The method of research is the analysis of time series of change in real GDP and deflator GDP. The study covers the period 1999-2013. The similarity of shocks is different in the euro area. Demand shocks were, in most ca-ses, symmetrical, while supply shocks - asymmetrical. Small open economies react more strongly to shocks. As a result of relatively high concordance of shocks, there are large differences in the response of real GDP and prices to shocks in the euro area.
