On Greek Formalism: Political and Cultural Aspects of Underdevelopment

Nicos P. Mouzelis

Chapter 8 in Modern Greece, 1978, pp 134-148 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract A striking characteristic of political and cultural practices in the Greek social formation is the extent to which conflicts and debates take a formalistic-legalistic character, shifting the attention of the masses away from ‘substantive’ issues (i.e. issues related to fundamental class antagonisms and to conflicting views of the world).
