Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index.
Summary Uses and Abuses of Culture: Greece 1974-2010 presents a new perspective on the ongoing crisis and the broader debate concerning the case of Greece. It examines contemporary perceptions of Greek identity and cultural memory as salient factors of this crisis. The book focuses on the era that began with the fall of the dictatorship in Greece, in 1974, and investigates previous and current pathologies of Greek society in relation to the ways they affected the understanding of the term 'culture' up to and including the year 2010. The chapters are structured around pivotal political and social events.
