Nation-Building and Identity in Europe Reviews

'...a refreshing critical book that complements a relatively long list of Anglophone (as well as Greek) literature on modern Greece and its nation formation endeavours. The book is innovative in its perspective, truly interdisciplinary and although much of the historical details and sources cited may attract the interest mainly of experts, its plain style makes it attractive to the general reader too.' - Nations and Nationalism
