This account of the Greek civil war employs much evidence which is either new, or has been hitherto unavailable in English. It draws together the findings of six scholars who have specialized in some aspect of the war.

The Greek Civil War, 1943-1950

A History of the Idea

The book draws extensively on research on modern Greece in recent decades, and on the many perceptive commentaries on recent events in the Greek press. It adopts both an analytical and chronological approach and shows how Greece has both converged with western Europe and remained distinctively Balkan. David Close writes clearly and forcefully, and presents a lively picture of the Greek political system, economic development, social changes and foreign relations. Aimed at readers coming to the subject for the first time, this is a readable and informative introduction to contemporary Greece.
