This book studies the rollercoaster first year in office of the
Coalition of the Radical Left (SYRIZA), which for many Europeans
constituted the hope for a different Europe, beyond austerity and
national egocentrism. Through a collection of sharp and short
articles and interviews that critically chronicle the rapid rise of
SYRIZA, the author argues that SYRIZA is not so much a new European
phenomenon, but rather a rejuvenated form of an old Greek
phenomenon, left populism, which overpromises and seldom delivers.
By putting the phenomenon of SYRIZA within a broader Greek and
European context, in which political extremism and populism are
increasingly threatening liberal democracy, Mudde argues that
Greece is neither a new Weimar Germany nor the future of Europe. As
SYRIZA has failed to bring the change it promised, the only
remaining question now is whether it can establish itself in the
Greek party system. This book will be of use to students and
scholars interested in Greek politics, comparative politics,
populism, and extremism.
