Putting Greece back on the cultural and political map of the "Long 1960s," this book traces the dissent and activism of anti-regime students during the dictatorship of the Colonels (1967-74). It explores the cultural as well as ideological protest of Greek student activists, illustrating how these "children of the dictatorship" managed to re-appropriate indigenous folk tradition for their "progressive" purposes and how their transnational exchange molded a particular local protest culture. It examines how the students' social and political practices became a major source of pressure on the Co

This edited collection explores the ways in which the 2008/2009 social and economic crisis in Southern Europe affected the interpretation of the transitional past in Spain, Greece and Portugal. Discussing topics such as public memory, Europeanism and uses of the past by grassroots movements, the volume showcases how the crisis challenged consolidated perceptions of the transitions as ‘success stories’. It revisits the dominant historical narratives around Southern European transitions to democracy more than forty years since the demise of authoritarian regimes, bringing together contributors from history, cultural studies, political science and sociology.

Consumption and Gender in Southern Europe since the Long 1960s offers an in-depth analysis of the relationship between gender and contemporary consumer cultures in post-authoritarian Southern European societies. The book sees a diverse group of international scholars from across the social sciences draw on 14 original case studies to explore the social and cultural changes that have taken place in Spain, Portugal and Greece since the 1960s. This is the first scholarly attempt to look at the countries' similar political and socioeconomic experiences in the shift from authoritarianism to democracy through the intersecting topics of gender and consumer culture. This comparative analysis is a timely contribution to the field, providing much needed reflection on the social origins of the contemporary economic crisis that Spain, Portugal and Greece have simultaneously experienced. Bringing together past and present, the v. elaborates on the interplay between the current crisis and the memory of everyday life activities, with a focus on gender and consumer practices. Consumption and Gender in Southern Europe since the Long 1960s firmly places the Southern European region in a wider European and transatlantic context. Among the key issues that are critically discussed are 'Americanization', the 'cultural revolution of the Long 1960s' and representations of the 'Model Mrs Consumer' in the three societies. This is an important text for anyone interested in the modern history of Southern Europe or the history of gender and consumer culture in modern Europe more generally.--

Navire militaire affrété par l’Institut français d’Athènes en décembre 1945, le Mataroa a permis à plus d’une centaine de jeunes Grecs de quitter la Grèce et de rejoindre Tarente, en Italie, avec pour destination finale Paris. Quittant un pays en ruine, profondément affaibli par la guerre et au seuil de la guerre civile, ceux-ci ont ainsi pu être accueillis en France, y mener leurs études et carrière dans des domaines aussi variés que la philosophie, la sculpture, l’architecture, la musique, etc. Au cœur de cette expédition, le directeur de l’Institut français d’Athènes de l’époque, Octave Merlier, qui rendit possible cette opération, aux allures d’épopée moderne. Longtemps passé sous silence, ce voyage constitue sans conteste l’un des événements les plus marquants de l’histoire franco-grecque de l’après-guerre. S’appuyant sur un matériel d’archives inédit, ce volume vise à offrir un éclairage historique et critique à cet événement, tantôt oblitéré, tantôt mythifié, part intégrante de la mémoire des échanges entre les deux pays. The Mataroa, a military vessel chartered by the French Institute at Athens in December 1945, enabled more than a hundred young Greeks to leave Greece, reaching first Taranto, Italy, and finally arriving in Paris. Leaving a country that was in ruins, deeply weakened by war and on the verge of civil war, they were thus welcomed in France, to pursue their studies and careers in fields as varied as philosophy, sculpture, architecture, music, etc. At the heart of this expedition was the director of the French Institute at Athens at that time, Octave Merlier, who made this operation, which looks like a modern epic, possible. Long overlooked, this trip is undoubtedly one of the most significant events in post-war Franco-Greek history. Based on unpublished archival material, this volume aims to shed historical and critical light on this event, sometimes obliterated, sometimes mythologized, but an integral part of the memory of the exchanges…

Bringing together over forty established and emerging scholars, this landmark volume is the first to comprehensively examine the evolution and current practice of social movement studies in a specifically European context. While its first half offers comparative approaches to an array of significant issues and movements, its second half assembles focused national studies that include most major European states. Throughout, these contributions are guided by a shared set of historical and social-scientific questions with a particular emphasis on political sociology, thus offering a bold and uncommonly unified survey that will be essential for scholars and students of European social movements.
