"After the proclamation of the Truman Doctrine in 1947, the United States became deeply
involved in Greek affairs. By 1952, however, the pro-Western government of Marshal
Papagos began to support the nationalist 'Enosis' movement in Cyprus and called for
an end to British colonial rule in the island. The opposition of the US, Britain and
Turkey to these demands brought Greece face-to-face with its closest allies at the
United Nations in 1954 and led to the outbreak of the first major crisis within NATO
since its creation. Greece and the Cold War examines these developments from the novel
perspective of critical international theory and exposes the unexplored connections
between dependence and nationalism in Greek foreign policy. Drawing on a wide range
of American, British and Greek archival sources, it argues that nationalism and compliance
with the collective interests of NATO were two irreconcilable objectives in Greek
foreign policy after 1952. At the same time, the book tells the story of how the post-Civil
War governments of Greece, for a variety of political, cultural and ideological reasons,
treated these two objectives as essentially compatible, resulting in the adoption
of a dualist policy. This self-contradictory diplomatic doctrine, which the author
refers to as "dependent nationalism", lies at the heart of Greece's post-War failures
both to emancipate its politics from US intervention and to peacefully end its regional
dispute with Turkey over Cyprus. The book deploys an interdisciplinary approach which
brings together the diverse perspectives of diplomatic history, foreign policy analysis
and political sociology"
