The 1970's witnessed the institution of political liberalism in
Greece, which went hand in hand with significant social and
economic advancement. Four decades later, the same country is a
latter-day 'sick man of Europe'. What went wrong? And why did the
more recent global crisis plunge Greece into abject misery? This
study provides compelling and original answers to these questions
through putting populism at center stage. By introducing new
concepts, focusing on micro-mechanisms, and empirically analyzing a
large variety of sources, the author shows how populism became
predominant in Greek politics and contaminated all major political
parties, eventually causing a major polity crisis. Besides its
particular interest in the specific case of Greece, the text offers
new insights about how states may fail, how populism develops at
single-nation level, and what could happen when it reigns supreme.
It also makes a strong statement about the corrosive power of
populism on modern liberal democracy
