  • Reshaping Politics of the Left and Centre in Greece After the 2014 EP Election Filippa Chatzistavrou and Sofia Michalaki
    Commentary No. 21/ 10 September 2014 Reshaping politics of the left and centre in Greece after the 2014 EP election Filippa Chatzistavrou and Sofia Michalaki he European Parliament elections in Greece earlier this year highlighted a conundrum: that of minority political parties struggling to mobilise voters in the event of snap national elections in T spring 2015. The political landscape is confused and volatile; the right and extreme-right on the political spectrum are accorded a disproportionately large place in political debate, while ideological positioning by the centre and centre-left does not seem to be a major concern for political analysts. The radical left-wing SYRIZA party is attempting to maintain a ‘leftist’ profile while demonstrating its capacity to govern through a strategy of image normalisation. SYRIZA faces a profound challenge in defining a modern political programme in which policy-specific party positions will be clearly identified, and in which political engagement can be matched with concrete political proposals. This conundrum looks even more insoluble in the face of internal criticism about attempts by the party leadership to broaden its electoral base to be more inclusive. Electoral winners and political losers from across the spectrum Official electoral results showed SYRIZA to be the winner of the 2014 EP election. But if we look more closely at the results and compare them to those of the last national elections (2012), we see that despite a spectacular launch in 2012, SYRIZA recorded a loss of more than 100,000 votes in the EP election. This loss could partly be attributed to poor voter turnout, although traditionally in Greece the opposition significantly increases its vote share in EP elections.

  • The Name Dispute in the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia After the Signing of the Interim Accord
    THE NAME DISPUTE IN THE FORMER YUGOSLAV REPUBLIC OF MACEDONIA AFTER THE SIGNING OF THE INTERIM ACCORD Aristotle Tziampiris 1. Introduction The issue of the precise name of the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM)1 dominated foreign policy in both Greece and its newly constituted neighbour throughout the first half of the 1990’s. The unwillingness of both sides to a mutually acceptable solution created an explosive, emotionally charged situation. Its consequences were far-reaching for international relations and for the domestic political scene in both countries.2 –––––––––––––––––––––––––– 1. Use of the term FYROM is in conformity with UN Security Council Resolution 817 of 7 April 1993, according to which “this State [will be] provisionally referred to for all purposes within the United Nations as “the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia” pending settlement of the difference that has arisen over the name of the State”. 2. For analyses of diplomatic and political developments during this period, see Evangelos Kofos “Greek Foreign Policy Considerations over FYROM Independence and Recognition” in James Pettifer (ed.), The New Macedonia Question, London, 1999; Michalis Papakonstantinou, A Politician’s Journal, 226 Aristotle Tziampiris The signing of the Interim Accord in New York on 13 September 1995 proved to be the turning point for the subsequent rapprochement between Greece and FYROM.3 This article/ chapter analyses developments in FYROM relating to the name dispute during the period that followed the signature of the Interim Accord. The diplomatic problem and ensuing conflict began on 8 September 1991, when the Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia held a referendum on its independence.
