Putting Greece back on the cultural and political map of the "Long
1960s," this book traces the dissent and activism of anti-regime
students during the dictatorship of the Colonels (1967-74). It
explores the cultural as well as ideological protest of Greek
student activists, illustrating how these "children of the
dictatorship" managed to re-appropriate indigenous folk tradition
for their "progressive" purposes and how their transnational
exchange molded a particular local protest culture. It examines how
the students' social and political practices became a major source
of pressure on the Colonels' regime, finding its apogee in the
three day Polytechnic uprising of November 1973 which laid the
foundations for a total reshaping of Greek political culture in the
following decades.
