{"product_id":"2940150888371","title":"Alexis Tsipras: Europe's Chavez or Worse","description":"Because unemployment is so pervasive, jobless, disenchanted people are joining radical parties espousing a wide variety of ideologies. Examples include populist euro-skeptic parties, such as Italy's Five Star movement; far-right parties, such as Greece's Golden Dawn party; and anti-austerity leftist groups, such as Greece's Coalition of the Radical Left, or Syriza. With unemployment in Greece at 27 percent, it is not surprising to see both radical right-wing and radical left-wing groups gaining support from those who have become deeply disaffected by the crises.\u003cbr\u003eIn fact, Greece has a long history of left-wing radicalism inclined toward violence. The 1970s saw the rise of radical group 17 November, and more recent years marked the rise of such groups as the Revolutionary Struggle and the Conspiracy of Fire Cells.\u003cbr\u003eGiven this history and the manner in which the current crises are producing disaffected, radicalized and unemployed people, we thought it would be worth examining radical far-left groups in Greece and the types of violence they can be expected to conduct. \u003cbr\u003eIt is also important to remember that Greece is not the only country in which the population, particularly the left, is radicalizing. Italy, too, has seen increased leftist radicalism. What is happening in these two countries could herald things to come elsewhere in Europe.","brand":"BRAD POWER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47182987329776,"sku":"2940150888371","price":8.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940150888371_p0.jpg?v=1764007850","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940150888371","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
