The Greek Military Dictatorship

“This is … collective work … focuses both on foreign relations as well as domestic matters such as economics, ideology, religion, culture, and education. Most of its contributors belong to a younger generation of Greek academics who offer a well-researched, updated account of a contested national story. Their prose is concise, clear, and fluent, and the format of their work is reader friendly.”• International Journal of Military History and Historiography

“Published in the 200th anniversary year of the revolution that launched Greece as a modern European nation-state, this book examines in unprecedented depth and breadth one of the most backward-looking episodes of the country’s history. Contributors from an impressive range of disciplines deploy their expertise to make sense of this bizarre anomaly in the history of both modern Greece and the Cold War western alliance.”• Roderick Beaton, King’s College London

“No other book on the Greek military dictatorship has taken such a multi-disciplinary approach. The volume is substantively rich, diverse in content, well-researched, and timely.”• Neovi Karakatsanis, Indiana University
