The Greek paradox

Sinopse

As a bridge between the East and West, a pole of stability in the Balkans, and a Mediterranean crossroads, Greece could play a significant role in the post-Cold War world. But Greece's performance in domestic and international policy falls short of this promise. The essays in The Greek Paradox look at some of the reasons for this gap and suggest possible political and economic reforms. The contributors shed light on nation-building, political and economic development, modernization, and NATO and Balkan politics.
