Greek Debt Crisis: Hear Today, Here Tomorrow

Stergios Skaperdas, both as a Greek national and UCI economist, covers how and why things have become so unbearable in Greece. We get some glimpses of what the erosion of democracy and the lowered standard of living look like in the current Greek political economy. Useful resources recently published by Professor Skaperdas include, The Oxford Handbook of the Economics of Peace and Conflict, and “Myths and Self-deceptions about the Greek Debt Crisis.”
