“Revolutionary movements” with guest Yiannis Balabanidis | 16 Nov. 2024, 10:00

What is revolution, and why is it so important that we celebrate on November 17 the heroic days of the students’ spontaneous uprising against the oppressive regime of the junta?

From the social processes that led to the Polytechnic Uprising to the big bang of the new left, hybridization, and altermodernism, on Saturday, November 16, 2024, at 10:00 AM Athens time, we will explore in “Ariadne’s Thread” how the movements that shape our contemporary political culture emerged, and what it (probably) means to make a revolution today, with the multifaceted Doctor of Comparative Politics and author Yiannis Balabanidis.

Produced and presented by Ariadni-Sofia Kouri
