Product Description

The scientific review New Sociology, an emblematic Magazine of panhellenic appeal, revives with a collector’s edition issue regarding the 1821 Hellenic Revolution anniversary. Editors in chief, Meletis Meletopoulos and Yiannis Sakiotis, summarize the review’s history and, through it, the history of Greece since the 1974 political transition. After an extensive chronology of the 1821 Revolution, Meletis Meletopoulos develops the topic “The vital myth of Navarino” and Yiannis Sakiotis makes the argument that “Western Civilization will exist as long as Greece exists.” The articles in this issue study significant aspects of the Greek War of Independence and its era, highlighting its complex historical framework, the way it is perceived through the ages, and its current imperative timeliness.
