In this episode of The Sound of Economics, we mark a decade since the Greek debt crisis, reflecting past hardships and the progress made and the challenges that lie ahead. Host Rebecca Christie is joined by George Papaconstantinou, former Greek Minister of Finance, and Eleni Varvitsioti, journalist and expert on European affairs. Together, they explore Greece's recovery journey, from the turbulence of the crisis to its recovery and economic growth. They discuss the cautious optimism in Greece today and the resilience of the Greek people, as well as continuing fiscal and political challenges.  The episode mentions the following books:  ‘Game Over: The Inside Story of the Greek Crisis' by George Papaconstantinou  ‘The Last Bluff: How Greece came face-to-face with financial catastrophe & the secret plan for its euro exit' by Viktoria Dendrinou and Eleni Varvitsioti  Safeguarding the Euro in Times of Crisis: The Inside Story of the ESM, by the European Stability Mechanism, lead author Rebecca Christie

On Tuesday Prime Minister Mitsotakis highlighted to German Chanellor Olaf Scholz that Greece has the fastest rate of debt reduction in the world. From around 206% of GDP in 2020, Greek debt is expected to decline this year to around 160% of GDP, and this downward trajectory is expected to continue throughout the decade. Yannis Palaiologos, a journalist at large with Kathimerini and the author of the book The 13th Labour of Hercules: Inside the Greek Crisis, joins Thanos Davelis to look at how Greece has gone from the black sheep of Europe to becoming a leader in debt reduction, discuss how to keep this momentum going, and look at what broader lessons arise for both the EU and the US from Greece's debt Odyssey.You can read the articles we discuss on our podcast here:Greece, a debt cut championWith Grexit Averted, Guess Whose Debt Outperforms?Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis' statements at the joint press conference with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz in BerlinEU countries are haggling over how to tackle high debt and deficit.

China is working to make a landmark deal with Iran, which has some far-reaching implications. China is also facing some serious pushback from the U.S., the UK and some of their allies over human rights abuses, espionage and more. Meanwhile, European leaders appear eager to draw closer to China. The U.S. attorney general made some blistering remarks yesterday about the priorities of some U.S. companies that are kowtowing to China. We also talk about Poland’s recent election, the protests rocking Israel, Bulgaria’s efforts to join the eurozone, and more.

EN - Interview with Aphrodite Bouikidis, director of the Reinventing Greece Media Project. Aired August 25, 2011.

Psychedelic Bordigist, Pavlos Roufos (@PRoufos), joins us to talk about the years leading up to, the proximate causes of, and the aftermath of the Greece sovereign debt crisis. How the post-war dictatorial regime cared more about repressing the left than economic development. How the social-democratic PASOK became more than just a party, but the agents behind both Keynesian and Neoliberal reforms. How entering the Eurozone ended up going in such a shitty direction for Greece and the rest of the PIIGS. Most importantly: we talk about the lessons from years of street actions, general strikes and mutual aid and why it was that Syriza, a parliamentary leftish formation, arose and ultimately failed to break with austerity and what that means for the future of the global working class movement. We have some hottt 'audio riot porn' bonus episode that will drop shortly.

Welcome to the 34th CONKERS’ CORNER. Recorded 25th October 2016. In this interview I have the pleasure of speaking with @themarketsniper Francis D Hunt, Blogger, Trader, Technical Analyst, Coach and Teacher of Trading. Francis grew up in South Africa. His parents inherited some money which they reinvested into Unit Trusts during the 1980’s. They would check the prices of their investments in the newspaper regularly and this piqued Francis’s interest in investing when he was around 16 years of age. As his parents often discussed how prices had increased and decreased, “the principle of investing grabbed him early”. Francis acknowledged even at a young age that his parents were making money passively. Francis quickly graduated to shares. Francis went into the South African Army in 1987 as part of the compulsory intake. He took all the savings he had and “lumped them into the stock market” just in time to be hit hard by the 35% market capitulation of October 1987. However because he was away with the Army for two years, he had no need for money. This enabled his portfolio to participate in the market’s strong rebound over the next two years. After his time in the Army, he went on to try several jobs before investigating as many trading methods that he could get access to. He then stripped everything back and put together his own winning formula: the Hunt Volatility Funnel Trading Theory (HVF). He has been successfully running his Market Sniper business since 2009, leading him to become a highly sought after trader, technical analyst and commentator globally. Francis is known for making several notable calls correctly including: 1. The China Break down in the beginning of 2016. 2. The Collapse in Oil in July 2014, that was the primary theme of markets for the next 18 months 3. The Militarisation macro bull theme since 2009, including stocks which went on to rise up to 500% 4. Precious Metals Long calls in 2001 from $256, 2009 through to 2011 $962 to $1900 with substantial Risk to Reward outcomes 5. The collapse of the Euro to the CHF (EURCHF Short Trade) in November 2009, inadvertently pre-empting the Greek Crisis trade of 2010. More recently again the floor fail was predicted for 2015 January, leading to a 30% FX move in hours that sent some brokers and trading platforms into financial distress and some into administration. Francis emphasises the need to capture profits and advises that one should have both an investing and a trading plan. http://www.themarketsniper.com/#sthash.De3uPMpX.dpbs Listen now to gain insights into how Francis invests, trades, charts, his macro calls and learn from the lessons in his successful, insightful investing and trading journey.

From Grexit to Troika, the ongoing crisis in Greece has spawned a whole new vocabulary and dominated newspaper headlines for over five years. Now, a powerful and timely anthology offers a poetic reply to the social and economic disaster which still threatens to overturn the whole European project. Times of protest and political upheaval have always inspired poets and artists; and beyond the headlines, elections and debt agreements, a powerful Greek literary movement has been stirring. 'Futures: Poetry of the Greek Crisis' introduces a new generation of writers inspired to highlight the plight of a country in a continual state of emergency. Theodoros Chiotis, Editor of this powerful collection, exciting new voices in Greek poetry and special guests read and discussed the anthology at Free Word Centre, London's international centre for literature, literacy and free speech. The event was chaired by Maria Margaronis. This event took place at Free Word Centre on Friday 13 November 2015.

Greece's future in Europe dominated headlines throughout the summer, but can the country turn its fortunes around? While it's true that the country owes hundreds of billions of euros and is facing austerity for years to come, Frances Stonor Saunders finds that Greece has plenty going for it - and not just its idyllic islands where Brits like to holiday. Frances takes a trip to picturesque Skiathos, with its sandy beaches and boutique hotels, before exploring the 'real' Greece on the mainland of Volos. Along the way she discovers that, contrary to the popular narrative, the Greek people are accepting responsibility for the crisis that now engulfs them, and are coming up with innovative solutions to fix the future. Presenter: Frances Stonor Saunders Producer: Ben Crighton.

It’s been two weeks and we have a mini-pod for you. We basically run through the injuries of the past two weeks and lament about the Greek Crisis. Miggy, David Wright, Dee Gordon, Strasburg, etc, etc. That wanders into a little bit of closer chatter and old guy talk. There is a rookie of note that got the call to the bigs so we discuss… Robert Refsnyder! and Miguel Sano’s future prospect. Will Sano be better than our man-crush, Kris Bryant? The answer might surprise you. Alright, this coming week we should have a full podcast for y’all. Cheers! As always, check us out on Twitter @2020AllStars and iTunes. Season 3 Episode 18 (15:29)

Greece is in turmoil, and ripples are spreading around the world. What’s at the heart of the crisis, and what’s coming next?

Talks over the Greek financial crisis essentially break down to the question of who will end up with the debt. Greece doesn't want it; Germany doesn't want it. All agree on one thing: the Fed should come to the rescue! How long until they do?

Recorded on November 28, 2012 at Columbia University. The Institute for Comparative Literature and Society presents a talk by Dimitris Papanikolaou, University Lecturer in Modern Greek Studies, University of Oxford, and Visiting Fellow, Remarque Institute, NYU. This event is co-sponsored by the Program in Hellenic Studies. Dimitris Papanikolaou engages with recent cultural work produced in Greece in the context of (and as a response to) the current economic and socio-political crisis – specifically, what can be seen as a ‘turn to archive’ in recent site-specific performance and conceptual art produced in Greece. Even though not a new trend in global art, the ‘turn to archive’ in Greece is taking a much more radical and more readily political dimension. Combining reflections on archival poetics, biopolitics and precarity, while also taking theoretical cues from Derrida’s Archive Fever and Athens Still Remains, and Butler’s Gender Trouble, Papanikolaou argues that what we see emerging in Greece at the moment is a larger, conscious and embattled cultural politics of Archive Trouble. The lecture will include examples from recent Greek films, novels, and works of visual art and performance.

How are the beautiful Greek islands coping with the economic crisis?

Welcome to Bible in the News, this is David Billington with you. Greece is again descending into chaos; having a weak tottering government, the street of Athens erupting into violence with protestors revolting over the austerity measures and the banking system on the verge of collapse. Other European banks have a large exposure to Greek debt and there is again a dangerous risk of contagion. If Greece defaults on it loans, the effects could cause catastrophe for other weak Eurozone economies. These events would spread ripples throughout the financial system worldwide.
