 PoliticsMaria Kapsali and Joseph Butler Chapter 1 in Business and Management Practices in Greece, 2011, pp 3-25 from Palgrave Macmillan Abstract: Abstract This chapter describes the political history of the Modern Greek state since its re-establishment in the nineteenth century and the impact it has had on the economy and the business system. It should be emphasized that this is an outline, highlighting certain themes in Greek politics, economy and business, and not a political analysis. There is plenty of scientific literature on that (from which we draw on) because this chapter is intented to inform people that are unfamiliar with the history of Modern Greece and provide them with the background information that will help them understand the more analytical chapters later. We therefore provide a summary of the political events and the major economic and business trends that went along with them. It is a top-down picture that brings to the surface certain themes that will be referred to in later chapters. These themes derive from the intertwining of political, economic and social factors which results in a complex mix of choices and events.
