Sommario/riassunto

""Papadogiannis offers an impressive panorama of radicalized youth cultures of the Left in post-authoritarian Greece. He manages to convey both the organizational outlook of this dense microcosm and the lived



experience of the people at the time, historicizing masterfully this transitional moment in which young 'subjects in motion' acted as a metaphor for change . . . the book uncovers the social, cultural, and political layers behind the resilience of collective action in post-1974 Greece."" ยท Kostis Kornetis, New York University
