<i>Kρίση</i> and <i>Μετανάστευση</i> in Greece: From Illegal Migrants to Refugees

Abstract

In this essay I outline the ways in which κρίση ( krísi – crisis) and μετανάστευση ( metanástefsi – migration) have been interrelated during the last decade in Greece. By being grounded in concrete times and places, I argue that these interrelations, far from being stable and fixed, take their form and meaning within wider social, economic and political contexts.
