The Greco-German Affair in the Euro Crisis

Talking Europe: The UCL European Institute podcast

This conversation explores the highly charged relationship between Greece and Germany at the height of the Eurozone Crisis, 2009-15. Claudia Sternberg (UCL), Kalypso Nicolaïdis (Oxford) and Kira Gartzou-Katsouyanni (LSE) are in conversation with the European Institute’s Uta Staiger to discuss the many ways in which Greeks and Germans represented and often insulted one another in the media, how their self-understanding shifted in the process, and how this in turn affected their respective appraisal of the EU - and that which divides us or keeps us together as Europeans. The conversation takes its departure from the eponymous book, which the three authors brought out with Palgrave in early 2018. https://www.palgrave.com/gb/book/9781137547507
