After the War Was over Reconstructing the Family, Nation, and State in Greece, 1943-1960

"This is an impressive collection of essays on a neglected subject. It is very useful to have a book that is focused in important ways on what happened at the local level. Very little attention has been devoted by historians to the themes under discussion in this collection. The essays are refreshingly free of ideological bias."--Richard Clogg, Oxford University "This collection of exciting essays discusses the tragedy of Greece in the wartime and postwar years. Its success is due to the widely recognized expertise of the editor, the excellence of contributors, the partial opening of the Greek archives, the more democratic atmosphere in Greece, and the end of the Cold War. The wide variety of authors--ranging from young to well-established historians and including at least one former participant in the civil war--is a further asset. It reads well and is a significant contribution to scholarship."--IstvÁn DeÁk, Columbia UniversityMazower, Mark is the author of 'After the War Was over Reconstructing the Family, Nation, and State in Greece, 1943-1960' with ISBN 9780691058429 and ISBN 0691058423.
