June 11, 2012 -- Socialist Worker (USA) -- Greece's Coalition of the Radical Left, SYRIZA, has a chance of winning parliamentary elections in Greece on June 17, which would give it an opportunity to form a government of the left that would reject the drastic austerity measures imposed on Greece as a condition of the European Union's bailout of the country's financial elite. SYRIZA rose from small-party status to a second-place finish in elections on May 6, 2012, finishing ahead of the PASOK party, which has ruled Greece for most of the past four decades, and close behind the main conservative party New Democracy. When none of the three top finishers were able to form a government with a majority in parliament, a date for a new election was set -- and SYRIZA has been neck-and-neck with New Democracy ever since. Where did SYRIZA, an alliance of numerous left-wing organisations and unaffiliated individuals, come from? Panos Petrou, a leading member of Internationalist Workers Left (DEA, by its initials in Greek), a revolutionary socialist organisation that co-founded SYRIZA in 2004, explains how the coalition rose to the prominence it has today.

  • Entre Populisme Et Marxisme-Léninisme : Le Double Discours De Syriza Sur La Question « Du Sujet Social »
    Entre populisme et marxisme-léninisme : le double discours de Syriza sur la question « du sujet social » Modestos Siotos, doctorant en science politique Centre européen de sociologie et de science politique (CESSP) Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne [email protected] 1 Introduction En raison du manque de données empiriques, les politologues désireux d’examiner le « phénomène Syriza » suivent en principe la couverture médiatique internationale, qui le qualifie de « populiste ». Le parti de la Gauche radicale grecque est considéré, souvent avec les Podemos en Espagne, comme un cas exemplaire du « populisme de Gauche » de l’Europe du Sud aux temps de l’austérité. Divisant l’ensemble social entre le « peuple » et l’« élite », le discours en noir et blanc de son leader, Alexis Tsipras, a créé un dipôle entre son parti et les partis au pouvoir traditionnels. Il s’agit d’un leader populiste, intelligent et charismatique mais, comme la majorité des dirigeants populistes, « un menteur », déformant la réalité sociale au service de sa stratégie électorale. Au-delà des jugements axiologiques, la qualification de « populiste » ne donne pas une image complète de ce qu’a été Syriza. Depuis sa fondation en 2004, il a d’abord offert un espace de rencontres, de conflits et de discussion des diverses forces politiques de la Gauche radicale grecque. Rassemblées par une volonté commune de « reconstituer la Gauche grecque », elles formulaient des questionnements auxquels la pensée marxiste-léniniste traditionnelle peinait à répondre. Parmi les interrogations posées, se distingue le « sujet social » que Syriza devait représenter. La figure du « sujet social », utilisée par les eurocommunistes grecs depuis la fin des années 1970, a constitué une tentative de substituer la notion de « prolétariat » par l’esquisse du profil sociologique du « sujet » qui va assumer le processus d’émancipation sociale dans les sociétés contemporaines.

Launched in September 2000, the Keele European Parties Research Unit (KEPRU) was the first research grouping of its kind in the UK. It brings together the hitherto largely independent work of Keele researchers focusing on European political parties, and aims: • to facilitate its members' engagement in high-quality academic research, individually, collectively in the Unit and in collaboration with cognate research groups and individuals in the UK and abroad; • to hold regular conferences, workshops, seminars and guest lectures on topics related to European political parties; • to publish a series of parties-related research papers by scholars from Keele and elsewhere; • to expand postgraduate training in the study of political parties, principally through Keele's MA in Parties and Elections and the multinational PhD summer school, with which its members are closely involved; • to constitute a source of expertise on European parties and party politics for media and other interests. The Unit shares the broader aims of the Keele European Research Centre, of which it is a part. KERC comprises staff and postgraduates at Keele who are actively conducting research into the politics of remaking and integrating Europe.
