The (...) texts were selected based on the criterion that they exhibit some durability over time. (...) Efforts were made to ensure that the selection process included articles that attempt, through their content, to touch upon existing and complex problems of Greek society, as these are addressed by the country's political personnel.

This edition concludes with the most recent texts on current issues (e.g. terrorism, government failures, etc.). (...) From the re-reading of the texts, one can observe the fluctuations of the entire thematic - not to mention all those involved - depending on the developments, the occasional ambitions of various parties, as well as the strategies of individual stakeholders.
