OverviewIn this landmark study, Thanos Veremis traces the evolution of Greece's military institution up to the pivotal 1995 law redefining civil-military relations. Along the way, he opens up broader insights into Greek political life, from towering figures like Venizelos, Plastiras, Pangolos, and Metaxas to the politicized monarchy and its eventual collapse. Drawing on a wealth of personal papers, state archives, diaries, and memoirs, Veremis offers the most comprehensive account to date of the army's intervention in Greek politics?from the National Schism of 1916 to the junta of 1967. He vividly recounts the high-stakes battle for control between monarchs and elected leaders, a conflict that simmered through decades, exploded with the Metaxas dictatorship, and returned in the shadow of Cold War authoritarianism.
