Karamouzi, E. orcid.org/0000-0002-5871-1601 (2022) Negotiating the American presence in Greece: bases, security and national sovereignty. The International History Review, 44 (1). pp. 129-144. ISSN 0707-5332
Abstract
American military bases and the political and social reactions they have solicited have had a major impact on the Greek political life. This article offers a synthetic analysis of the base negotiations in the period of democratization and rising anti-Americanism that integrates diplomatic with social history to tell for the first time how both Washington and Athens framed, understood and negotiated the status of the bases on the Greek soil and what was the role of the Turkish factor. Newly available evidence shed light on the motives of both players and unveils a dynamic and complex interchange between international and domestic pressures, the Turkish threat, the role of political parties, congress, and civil society.
