Description

This volume offers an in-depth anatomy of the PASOK government in Greece between 1981 and 1989. PASOK's "socialism", under the leadership of Andreas Papandreou, assumed a distinctly populist form, markedly different from West European social democracy. Among the topics covered are political culture, civil society, the role of the presidency, parliament and the courts, the interaction between PASOK and the far left, the media, foreign and security policies, and, in particular, the critical relationship with the EC, the US and Turkey. Other works either written or edited by by Richard Clogg include "A Concise History of Greece", "A Short History of Modern Greece", "Politics and the Academy: Arnold Toynbee and the Koraes Chair", "Parties and Elections in Greece", "The Struggle for Greek Independence", "British Policy Towards Wartime Resistance in Yugoslavia and Greece" (with Phyllis Auty), "Balkan Society in the Age of Greek Independence", "The Movement for Greek Independence 1770-1821: A Collection of Documents" and "Greece in the 1980s".
