The long story of Greek terrorism was meant to have ended in the
summer of 2002 with the collapse of the country's premier terrorist
organisation and one of Europe's longest-running gangs, the
notorious 17 November group (17N). However, rather than
demoralising and emasculating the country's armed struggle
movement, the dismantling of 17N and the imprisonment of its
members led to the emergence of new urban guerrilla groups and an
upsurge in and intensification of revolutionary violence. Given the
sheer longevity of the 17N terrorist experience, George Kassimeris
sets out to analyse the life histories of the group's imprisoned
members. Their stories, told through their own words, offer us a
clearer picture than we have ever had of the political and
ideological environment that provided the foundations upon which
revolutionary terrorism took root in the mid-1970s. This book also
brings up to date the gritty story of Greek terrorism, by analysing
the country's post-17N generation of ur- ban guerrilla groups,
placing their extremism and violence in a broader political and
cultural perspective.
