This rule may be about to be broken in Greece: this particular EP election not only coincided with two rounds of local (municipal and regional) elections – therefore creating a cumulative political event – but it was also the first national contest since the historic elections of May and June 2012, which marked the breakdown of the post-1974 party system. The recent elections were important for other reasons, too:

    Tsakatika, M. (2016) SYRIZA’S electoral rise in Greece: protest, trust and the art of political manipulation.

You are advised to consult the publisher’s version if you wish to cite from it. http://eprints.gla.ac.uk/128645/ Deposited on: 20 September 2016 Enlighten – Research publications by members of the University of Glasgow http://eprints.gla.ac.uk33640 SYRIZA’s electoral rise in Greece: protest, trust and the art of political manipulation Abstract Between 2010 and 2015, a period of significant political change in Greece, the Coalition of the Radical Left (SYRIZA), a minor party, achieved and consolidated major party status. This article explores the role of political strategy in SYRIZA’s electoral success. It argues that contrary to accepted wisdom, targeting a ‘niche’ constituency or protesting against the establishment will not suffice for a minor party to make an electoral breakthrough. SYRIZA’s case demonstrates that unless a minor party is ready to claim that it is willing and able to take on government responsibility, electoral advancement will not be forthcoming. The success of SYRIZA’s strategy can be attributed to favourable electoral demand factors and apt heresthetic manipulation of issue dimensions. Keywords: SYRIZA, Tsipras, Memorandum, minor parties, radical left, Greek party system, heresthetics Word count: 11,947 From a party lifespan perspective (Pedersen 1982), over the course of the last half century a swathe of minor parties have managed to cross both the threshold of representation and that of relevance, meaning that they have become parties with an established presence in legislative politics as well as parties with coalition potential or ‘blackmail’ potential if in opposition (Sartori 1976).

Specifically, it examines the Golden Dawn, a group, which beyond engaging in vigilante activities is also the third biggest political party in the country. The Golden Dawn is distinct from a number of other European parties broadly labelled under the ‘far right’ umbrella in that in was formed as a violent grass-roots movement by far right activists, its main activities prior to 2012 confined to the streets. It can be described as a vigilante group, which frequently uses violence, engages in street politics, has a strong focus on community-based activities, and its members perceive themselves as ‘street soldiers’.

  • Greek Elections of June 17Th 2012
    DÉLKELET EURÓPA – SOUTH -EAST EUROPE INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS QUARTERLY, Vol. 3. No. 1. (Spring 2012/1 Tavasz) Greek Elections of June 17 th 2012 Through the prism of the Greek press ΑΓΓΕΛΙΚΉ ΝΕΒΣΕΧΙΡΛΊΟΓΛΟΥ (AGGELIKI NEVSERHILIOGLOU ) Abstract On June 17 th , Greece is the field for a major election process, the results of which could possiBly alter the future of the international political and financial scene. These are the second elections of the year 2012, after the inaBility of the political parties to form a coalition government after the 6 th of May. The extended pre- election period has definitely put fuel in the fire, as social instaBility Becomes all the more prominent and extreme political groups and Beliefs slowly But surely gain ground. In this environment of charged feelings and in favor of oBjectivity in a decisively liquid situation, this article has Been written at two different time periods, pre-election and post-election. As such, the review of the Greek press has Been composed without any prior knowledge of the result. This method has Been chosen Because in this kind of situations, when the most oBscure of theories come and go freely and populism and petty political amBitions Bypass any reasonaBle standard, it is of utmost importance to oBserve what was said and heard Before the facts were final and unchangeaBle. Hopefully this type of presentation will make clearer to outside oBservers the conditions in Greece in the period of austerity and political and social instaBility. In such vital times, there is nothing more destructive and dangerous than strained impressions.

  • Election Documentaries Enter Greek Cinema
    FILMICON: Journal of Greek Film Studies ISSUE 2, September 2014 Election Documentaries Enter Greek Cinema Apostolos Karakasis Aristotle University of Thessaloniki ABSTRACT Following the paradigm set by Primary, a film associated with the birth of cinema verité, documentaries on elections have appeared regularly over the last 50 years. In 2012 the sub-genre of the ‘election doc’ appeared for the first time in Greek cinema with the almost simultaneous release of two films: Ena Vima Brosta/One Step Ahead by Dimitris Athiridis and Dimokratia, o Dromos toy Stavrou/Demokratia, the Way of the Cross co-directed by five filmmakers under the coordination of Marco Gastine. As documentary film is often associated with alternative and more sophisticated representations of political reality, it is natural that the appearance of the two films raises expectations and questions regarding their positive contribution to the current public discourse. This article attempts a comparative analysis of the narrative construction as well as the form of the two films in order to reveal the views each one offers on current Greek politics and the potential for change. The construction of meaning is examined as a result of different ways each film organises its footage into a complex plot, of variations in the modes of documentary representation, as well as of different stylistic choices. KEYWORDS crisis Demokratia, the Way of the Cross election documentary One Step Ahead politics verité 117 ELECTION DOCUMENTARIES ISSUE 2, September 2014 INTRODUCTION In 1960, Robert Drew and a group of four young filmmakers, who were to be recognized as leading figures of documentary film history,1 made Primary, a film considered “a landmark in the aesthetic development of cinema verité” (Allen & Gomery 1985: 224).

  • The Greek Grassroots Challenge to the Politics of Austerity
    The Greek Grassroots Challenge to the Politics of Austerity Harrison and Landy recently returned from a trip to Greece, where they met with activists and others to gain a better understanding of the popular upsurge against the Greek government’s austerity program. The crisis in Greece began with the discovery that the Greek government had been concealing the size of its debt in order to stay within the monetary union guidelines: it was revealed to be 120 percent of GDP, one of the highest percentages in the world. This massive debt was the result of several factors: reckless borrowing, for example to finance the Olympics and to buy weaponry from Germany and the U.S. (Greece spends more on defense as a proportion of GDP than any other EU member) and flagrant tax evasion by the rich—but also the structure of the Eurozone itself, which was designed to create a market for German exports in Greece and the other weaker European economies by replacing weak local currencies with the Euro. This encouraged excessive borrowing. The “Troika” of the European Central Bank, the European Commission, and the International Monetary Fund agreed to a “rescue package”—three big chunks of bailout money—in return for Greece signing a “memorandum” promising massive privatization of public assets and harsh austerity measures—cutting government spending on wages, pensions, social welfare—to free up money for paying down the debt. In part because of the worldwide recession, government revenues fell despite the spending cuts, and the debt continued to grow. Meanwhile, the austerity program provoked massive resistance from the Greek people.
