The economic crisis has left indelible marks on the political, economic, and social life of Greece and continues to affect its relations with the member states of the European Union and European institutions, while simultaneously eroding - slowly but steadily - the relationship between the state, governments, and citizens.

Alongside the economic crisis, significant events have occurred in recent years that have influenced the country's path toward economic development, particularly the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, which not only interrupted the country's trajectory toward growth but also worsened its economic and political prospects.

This collective volume, through an interdisciplinary approach, seeks to redefine the economic situation in Greece in order to assess the extent to which its path toward modernization and development within the Eurozone has been affected. Some of the leading researchers on the subject of political economy and the economic crisis in Greece analyze in depth the social and political-economic impacts of the economic crisis and the Covid-19 pandemic in the country.
