About The Edinburgh History Of The Greeks, 20th And Early
This volume deals with a tumultuous yet transformative era in Greek history. During the twentieth century, most Greeks abandoned the countryside for the cities or the expanding global diaspora. Greek and Cypriot societies became urbanised, secularised and more ‘western’. Since the Balkan Wars they have also lurched from crisis to crisis, having experienced two destructive war decades (1912–1922 and 1940–1949), the Turkish invasion of Cyprus in 1974 and the economic crises of the 2010s. Focusing on the relationship between state and society, as well as on Greeks’ place in the wider world, this book considers how Greeks have engaged with global change and the impact of international factors on their lives.
