- This 109,000-word monograph identifies the root causes of the Greek financial crisis in the practice of clientelism: the allocation of benefits by the government to politically affiliated groups. The book offers a meticulous analysis of archival and textual materials. Using game theory and the technique of analytic narratives, the author develops a theory on clientelism, which explains the persistence of poor institutions even in face of economic crisis. Published both as a hardcover and a paperback, the book received favourable reviews for demonstrating the impact of clientelism on democratic politics and policymaking, which previous literature has not fully captured.
