During the dictatorship of the Colonels in Greece, there was an
attempt at self-transformation into some form of civilian rule in
1973: the so-called 'Markezinis experiment', named after the
politician who assumed the task of heading the transition
government and lead to elections. It lasted a mere eight weeks,
faced heavy opposition from both the opposition elites and the
civil society and eventually collapsed by a military hard-liners'
coup. This book argues that the failure of the 'Markezinis
experiment' paved the way for the actual transition of 1974 as it
happened. Using British and American archival resources, as well as
unique private archives and personal interviews, the book concludes
by briefly seeking to trace some potential alternative paths for
the failed self- transformation attempt, and by accounting for the
long-term consequences of the failure of the 'Markezinis
experiment'.
