The Golden Dawn’s ‘Nationalist Solution’: Explaining the Rise of the Far Right in Greece

by Sofia Vasilopoulou, Daphne Halikiopoulou

This book contextualizes the rise of the Golden Dawn within the Eurozone crisis. The authors argue that the movement's success may be explained by the extent to which it was able to respond to the crisis of the nation-state and democracy in Greece with its 'nationalist solution': the twin fascist myths of social decadence and national rebirth.
