Greece and EEC Membership: Was it a Mistake? <http://www.wilsoncenter.org/event/greece-and-eec-membership-was-it-mistake>
The Cold War International History Project in cooperation with the Global Europe Program, invites you to join a discussion of the European Economic Community and Greece during the Cold War

"Greece, the EEC and the Cold War, 1974-1979" by Eirini  Karamouzi explores the history of the European Economic Community (EEC)  in the turbulent decade of the 1970s with a focus on the Community’s  response to the fall of the Greek dictatorship and the country’s  application for EEC membership. The book constitutes the first  multi-archival study on the second enlargement of the EEC, drawing on  British, French, German, Irish, American, EEC and Greek sources.  Karamouzi’s work reveals the rationale behind the nine existing member  states’ acceptance of the Greek application and details the dynamics of  the accession negotiations in the evolving environment of détente and  the rise of the Left in Southern Europe.
