Focusing on the formative 1974-1981 years, the central theme of this text is the building of democracy in contemporary Greece and the role played in it by the newly-emergent political parties. Special attention is payed to the conservative "New Democracy", led by Karamanlis, which held office during these years of democratic transition. The book also offers a systematic analysis of today's political system in Greece, its strengths and deficiencies, and its prospects for the future.

'This is an outstanding contribution to the comparative politics and sociology and not only to the study of Greek society and politics. It contributes to the growing field of the study of transitions to, and consolidation of, new democracies and our understanding of the role of Prime Minister Karemanlis. It is also one of the few monographic studies of a conservative party: Nea Demokretia, that has been able to institutionalize itself and to play a continuous role. It combines a theoretical approach with solid field work in a richly textured society.' - Juan J. Linz, Sterling Professor of Political and Social Science, Yale University.
