Disrupted and Disrupting Consumption: Transformations in Buying and Borrowing in Greece -- Conclusion -- IndexSince its sovereign debt crisis in 2009, Greece has been living under austerity, with no apparent end in sight. This volume explores the effects of policies pursued by the Greek state since then (under the direction of the Troika), and how Greek society has responded. In addition to charting the actual effects of the Greek crisis on politics, health care, education, media, and other areas, the book both examines and challenges the “crisis” era as the context for changing attitudes and developments within Greek society.Financial crisesSocial aspectsGreeceGreeceEconomic conditions21st centuryGreeceSocial conditions21st centuryanthropology.athens.austerity measures.austerity.business.debt crisis.economic collapse.economic crisis.economics.education.elections.engaging.finance.government and governing.greece.greek crisis.greek society.greek state.health care.historical.history.human condition.media.money.page turner.political science.political.politics.power and wealth.retrospective.revolution.social issues.social sciences.troika.Financial crisesSocial aspects330.9495MS 4420DE-16/s17-21rvkDoxiadis EvdoxiosPlacas AimeeMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910796936503321Living under austerity3777422UNINA
