A "sacred" Fund allows hundreds of millions of drachmas to "ascend to the heavens," or rather to be collected by "savior" cronies.

    A manual that must be read by those who have doubts about the economic policy and the so-called "economic miracle" of the colonels' dictatorship.
    Those who speak of propaganda would do well to cross-check what the book writes even with foreign bibliography. I will agree that sometimes the author's tone may seem quite "hostile", however, it is an excellent work and the entire manual completely debunks the narratives about the Junta that appeared during the economic crisis and survive to this day.

    P.S. Of course, democratic governments are also full of scandals, however, there must be a stop to the false narratives about the complete lack of corruption during the seven-year period.

    What can one say, a lot of research, Eleftheratos in everything he has done, from sports to political radio, and music, excellent. The title says it all about the content, it gives you an in-depth look at what these guys have been through.

    Full of half-truths in the logic of NOT WORSE OPTIMUM. Simply an admittedly ambitious attempt to redeem the REAL junta, namely the transition. I believe it will do extremely well in sales, given the historical illiteracy of the modern Greek and the excellent censorship that, I believe, it will receive from television

Description & Specifications

A dictator resides in Onassis's villa with the "kind sponsorship" of the Public Power Corporation. A "sacred" Fund allows hundreds of millions of drachmas to "ascend to the heavens," or rather to be collected by "savior" cronies. An American company boasts about receiving abundant funds from the Greek state without doing absolutely anything. Greek banks finance the "construction" of tractors in Thessaloniki, but they are imported from Austria! Black meats have flooded the market for over two years. Fatal workplace accidents have quadrupled, industrial profits are multiplying, and the taxation of shipowners is almost nullified. "Greece of Greeks and Christians," indeed, writes history...

Dionysis Eleftheratos examines the economic, income, and social policy of the junta, from the "illusory prosperity" of 1967-71 to the complete demystification of 1973-74, in his new book. In this book, not only eloquent statistics parade, but also scandals of all kinds, dizzying "ocean loans," winners and losers, "dynasties" and "burned" ones. Contracts that make the term "gracious" sound utterly deficient. Laws and announcements that seem to have inspired the work-related "status quo" that Greece of the Memoranda experienced decades later.

Also "parading" are the words and writings of the regime's top officials. Vitriolic letters to G. Papadopoulos, "backstabbing" and denunciations, reports from the Central Intelligence Service that "docketed" the protagonists of the endless feast of the "borrowed and unreturned" - both the givers and the recipients. Furthermore, disputes among the economic "brains" of the dictatorship regarding the reasons behind the shattering of the heavily advertised "miracle," before the large wave of the international crisis of 1973 even reached Greece.

An investigation with a strong scent of the era and comparisons of the "immediate before" with the "immediate after," an incisive look at the economics of the dictatorship, in a way that takes into account the "coordinates" of the modern era, as well as many of the "persistent" far-right myths about that period.
