The Balkan Prospect

Identity, Culture, and Politics in Greece after 1989

About this book

Winner of the Edmund Keeley Book Prize

This is the first book-length cultural studies/cultural history monograph to consider post-1989 Greece

Draws on historical, cultural, and political studies of Greece

Given its focus on Greek cultural identity and the larger project of European integration, it's of obvious significance in the context of the ongoing political and economic turmoil in Europe
