Greece’s Painful Transition – by Nick Malkoutzi

For a useful summary of the Greek parliamentary parties standing in the election of 6 May and what they stand for, see the first half of Nick Malkoutzis’s pre-election article ‘Greece’s painful political transition’.

His analysis may be middle of the road for some (a bit like ‘The Independent’).  Certainly it is too internally focused, attributes insufficient attention to the effect of the international crisis on Greece, and therefore seems to suggest Greece can reform itself out of the crisis.

But it provides English speakers, baffled by Greek politics, with a very clear and comprehensive introduction to the parliamentary contenders and what they stand for. http://library.fes.de/pdf-files/id/09061.pdf
