Europe's Last Red Terrorists
The Revolutionary Organization 17 November
George Kassimeris
"George Kassimeris has deployed his masterly knowledge of contemporary Greek politics and ideas to explain how a violent revolutionary organization can emerge in a fragile democracy, and to analyze its impact on Greek politics. His meticulous analysis of 17N's historical antecedents, ideology, strategy and terrorist attacks, and the reactions of the Greek political parties and elites, helps us to understand better why 17N's assassination campaign has proved so durable." - Professor Paul Wilkinson, Director, Centre for the Study of Terrorism and Political Violence, University of St. Andrews"An excellent analysis, perhaps the best one available, on the still active nationalist terrorist organization." - Choice
