Reviews

'This book is an interesting and well developed consideration of an aspect of the Greek crisis that has been little studied, civil society, the voluntary sector, and NGO development, with some valuable local case studies.' James Pettifer, Oxford University, UK 'This is a timely, often very insightful, and highly accessible profile of civil society in Greece's prolonged crisis era. The main contours of civil society are traced, and the impact of the economic crisis on a broad range of sectors is provided. This is an indispensable tool for understanding the impact of the Eurozone crisis on a string of north Mediterranean countries reeling from its effects.' Tom Gallagher, University of Bradford, UK
