The most painful consequence of the multifaceted Greek crisis is undoubtedly the triumphant entry into Parliament of an openly Nazi party.
In the gloom that has enveloped the whole country, the dark cloud of a political organization invoking Hitler as a model and applying street violence as a method of national renewal is now added.
How did we get here? And how did Greece, which prided itself on its tolerance and traditional hospitality, end up on the lowest rung of the most xenophobic European societies?
How did the box of Pandora suddenly open, allowing the previously insignificant and marginal Greek far-right to largely determine the political agenda today, imposing its extreme choices on the party system by force?
How did we forget the dictatorship? How is it possible for a Nazi party to be voted in Distomo and Kalavryta?
And how do we tolerate mockery of the Holocaust in a country that lost the overwhelming majority of its Jewish citizens in concentration camps?
The answer to these questions requires studying the history and documentation of the organization, from its foundation in the distant 1980s to today, as it claims to leave its own dark mark on political developments.
In the texts, symbols, and, above all, the actions of Golden Dawn, one can trace the reasons that allowed the re-emergence of Storm Troopers in a European country, as well as the ways to stop the descent into barbarism.
