  • Banks Are Responsible for the Economic and Social Crisis in Greece
    Banks are Responsible for the Economic and Social Crisis in Greece By Eric Toussaint Region: Europe Global Research, January 09, 2017 Theme: Global Economy, Poverty & Social Coalition for the Abolition of Illegitimacy Inequality Debt 9 January 2017 The present study shows that the Greek crisis that broke out in 2010 originated in private banks, not in excessive public spending. The so-called bail-out was designed to serve the interests of private bankers and those of dominant countries in the Eurozone. Greece adopting the euro played a major role among the various factors that contributed to the crisis. The analysis developed here was first presented in Athens on 6 November 2016 during a meeting of the Truth Committee on Greek Public Debt. At first sight, between 1996 and 2008, the development of Greece’s economy looked like a success story! The integration of Greece within the EU and from 2001 on within the Eurozone seemed successful. The rate of Greece’s economic growth was higher than that of the stronger economies in Europe. This apparent success actually concealed a vicious flaw, just as had been the case in several other countries – not only Spain, Portugal, Ireland, Cyprus, the Baltic Republics and Slovenia, but also Belgium, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Austria…, countries that had been badly hit by the 2008 financial crisis.1 | Not forgetting Italy, which was caught up by the banking crisis a few years after the others. In the early 2000s, the creation of the Eurozone generated significant volatile and often speculative financial flows 2| | that went from economies of the Centre (Germany, France, the Benelux, Austria…) towards countries of the Periphery (Greece, Ireland, Portugal, Spain, Slovenia, etc.).

Passas Introduction1 This chapter focuses on the Panhellenic Socialist Movement (PASOK) and seeks to trace the origin and the content of its preferences on European integration since its establishment in 1974. It challenges the established view that – couched as it is in PASOK’s rhetoric in the immediate post-1974 era – construes PASOK as an initially instinctively anti-European political party that subsequently performed a policy U- turn, a true political transformation by turning from a vocal anti-EEC stance to a pro- European (even federalist) attitude (Tsardanidis 1998, 295, 299, 300; Kazakos 1994, 5; Verney 1987, 259-60, 263; Featherstone 1988, 178; Couloumbis 1993, 126; Featherstone 1994, 158-9).

November 2013 DEDICATION This thesis is dedicated to the memory of my beloved father, who did not make it until the end of this journey. 1 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS There are many people who have invested in my work over the past five years and I am enormously grateful. There is no way I can thank all of those who made this journey worthwhile, fun and intellectually stimulating. In short, I am greatly indebted to my friends and family. Their love, encouragement, and kind support, have raised the bar for what I expect of myself. I am truly grateful to all of them for investing in me and my ideas. I also feel the need to thank my director of studies, Professor Stephen Lacey, for being so loving and encouraging to me and for teaching me how to be a good scholar. I hope someday I will be able to be the kind of mentor he has been to me. I thank him from the bottom of my heart. Finally, I would like to thank my dear friend Lena Hadjiioannou for offering me her excellent editing skills and for the endless hours of conversations in a field which is not her own. Her brilliant skills in English language, her patient love, and unconditional support, have not only made the completion of this PhD study possible but have also made me a better person.
