In recent years, the Greek economy has become a central topic of discussion in international economic forums. This book analyzes the modern economic challenges that Greece faces, examining how and why a once-strong economy can today be flirting with total collapse.

Mihalis Mitsopoulos and Thodoros Pelagidis study the mistakes of the Greek political-economic system, the role of powerful interest groups, the dysfunctions of individual markets, and the implementation of the IMF support program.

They describe both how failed policies and corruption have led the nation to bankruptcy, and how recovery can be achieved. A book about Greece, and not only.
