5: The Greek Paradox
Greeks have a strong sense of their cultural and historical identity. Yet Western
Europeans, who regard the traditions of ancient Greece as the core of their own civilisation, are puzzled by the profile of the modern Greek state. Geographically it is
Balkan, but its people are not
Slavs. It is Christian but neither Catholic nor Protestant. It is not Arabic or Islamic, but Middle Eastern influences are strong. Robert Fox recorded the views of Greeks on the mainland and in the islands and found them vulnerable and divided. Producer HARRY SCHNEIDER
