About the Book

2015 was a landmark in the history of Greece, Europe and the Left. This book can be used as a guide for readers who are not ready to content themselves either with the mainstream narrative, or with former Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis's version in his book Adults in the Room. One of the book's major objectives is to show that at each stage of the harrowing path the government walked from February to July 2015, there were possible alternatives. The author discusses the political implications of the Greek experience for the European left and for a potential radical government that works with and for the people.

Review :

2015 will be a landmark in the history of Greece, Europe and the Left. This book can be used as a guide for readers who are content neither with the mainstream narrative spun by major media and creditors, nor with former Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis's version in his book Adults in the Room. Eric Toussaint shows that when they agreed to the Troika extending the second Memorandum of Understanding at the end of February 2015, Yanis Varoufakis and the few Syriza leaders around Tsipras never considered taking action if creditors did not yield anything. Instead of calling upon the people's support and exposing the blackmail they were faced with, Varoufakis and Tsipras spent far too much time in lengthy negotiation meetings abroad which only resulted in more concessions to the Troika, bent on destroying the hopes of the Greek people. One of the book's major objectives is to show that at each stage of the harrowing path the government walked from February to July 2015, there were possible alternatives. The author discusses the political implications of the Greek experience for the European left and for a potential radical government that works for the people.
