The Greek Economy in the Twentieth Century

The Greek Economy, first published in 1986, presents a detailed survey of the development of the Greek economy in the twentieth century. It examines the different sectors of the economy, traces the different stages of development and relates economic development to the social, political and natural resource background. The book concludes by examining the likely future development of the Greek economy within the enlarged EEC - a key question at the time being, Will the Greek economy be transformed into a 'developed economy', or continue to be like that of a less developed country?
