Syriza. Escaping the Labyrinth

The world´s eyes are on Greece. Elected in January 2015 under the leadership of Alexis Tsipras, the radical Syriza party sought to challenge the European economic status-quo and secure a better future for the Greek people. The fierce confrontation with Greece´s creditors which followed reverberated around the world.
Kevin Ovenden tells the turbulent story of Syriza´s first six months in office. Despite its recent setbacks and the steapping down of hardball finance minister Yanis Vaoufakis, he argues that the party remains poular with the people, and that the party remains popular with the people, and that there is a determination to carve out a better and more democratic future for Greece and for Europe.
Based on first-hand reporting, this is the perfect read for anyone who wants the real story of what´s happening on the ground in Greece.
