Críticas:

A fascinating, humane, caustic analysis of Greece and the rebirth of its left, which contains inspiration and hazard-lights for progressives everywhere (Zoe Williams, Guardian)

Reseña del editor:

The world’s eyes are on Greece. Elected in January 2015 under the leadership of Alexis Tsipras, the radical Syriza party sought to challenge the European economic status-quo and secure a better future for the Greek people. The fierce confrontation with Greece’s creditors which followed reverberated around the world.

Kevin Ovenden tells the turbulent story of Syriza’s first six months in office. Despite the party's many defeats over the last few months, the rise (and possible fall) of Syriza is a symbolic and important story to tell. The twists and turns of the bailout negotiations with the Troika; the brief reign of iconoclastic Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis; and the surge of radical, popular support all converge to create a pivotal moment in Europe's recent history.

Based on firsthand reporting by an experienced journalist, this book is the perfect read for anyone looking to go behind the headlines and uncover the real situation in Greece.
