Recenzii

'In this engagingly written, compellingly argued and, above all, timely book, Pappas offers a thorough account of the reasons that caused the Greek Crisis. It is a full-blown empirical study on populism at single-country level, which also helps our better understanding of why, and how, politics has contributed in crucial ways to the economic crisis that has plagued southern Europe.' - Leonardo Morlino, Professor of Political Science at LUISS Guido Carli, Rome, and IPSA past president
'With populist parties now gaining ground across the continent, Professor Pappas could become a vital and controversial authority regarding the future of European democracy.'
Nicholas Barrett, European University Institute Times
