Infos

This expanded and enlarged third edition of Theodore Pelagidis and Michael Mitsopoulos' popular Who's to Blame for Greece? covers almost a decade of Greece's economic crisis from 2009 to 2019, as well as recent developments in the first months of 2020. It provides an overview of recent developments in the Greek economy and outlines the most important obstacles to a return to robust and sustainable growth rates.  It considers  the new optimism being developed in Greece after the crisis, but also the policy challenges facing Greece emanating from a deeply hurt economy in the aftermath of the crisis and the structural problems that persist.

The book covers the most recent issues that affect the Greek economy including, the migration crisis at the borders with Turkey as well as a faltering global economy hit by the Covid-19 pandemic. This book will appeal to researchers, practitioners and policy makers interested in the EU and the political economy of Greece and offers valuable updates on the second edition.

Theodore Pelagidis is the Deputy Governor of the Bank of Greece (since September 2020) and Professor of Economics at the University of Piraeus, Department of Shipping, Greece. He has been a NR senior fellow at the Brookings Institution during 2012-2020, a NATO scholar at the Center for European Studies at Harvard University, USA (1995); an NBG fellow at the London School of Economics, UK (2010); and an Onassis scholar and Fulbright fellow at Columbia University, USA (2008). He has also served as an expert to the IMF in the Internal Evaluation Office (2015) and to EC (Horizon, 2018).

Michael Mitsopoulos is Director in Business Environment and Regulatory Affairs at the Hellenic Federation of Enterprises, Greece. He holds a PhD in Economics from Boston University and has taught at the University of Piraeus and the Economic University of Athens. He has published extensively in academic journals and is the co-author with Pelagidis of Understanding the Crisis in Greece: From Boom to Bust (Palgrave Macmillan, 2011 & 2012 2nd ed.) and of Greece.
