Resumo: | The purpose of this article is to provide a reference appropriate to both current specialists in the field of International and European Studies and those delving into the subject for the first time. As Greece celebrates 200 years since the launch of the Greek Struggle for Independence (1821-2021) and the 40th anniversary of Greece's accession to the European Communities (now European Union), this article aims at a reflective analysis across the key themes that have shaped Greece’s strategic identity, from 1821 until the recent financial crisis. The current study reviews the existing literature on the subject and outlines an agenda for future research to build up knowledge and awareness on the importance of deepening our knowledge on the distinct strategic identities of the various EU Member-States. It comprises conceptual and empirical dimensions to deepen the appreciation on Greek politics, institutions, and policies and to connect them to a wider, international historical context. The main argument is that Greece has made strategic choices responding to the international political environment over time, in which the liaison between its classical legacy, Europe and the West have always been present. |

The European identity in the classical psyche of Greece: Between values and strategic visionA identidade europeia na psique clássica da Grécia: Entre valores e visão estratégicaArticlesThe purpose of this article is to provide a reference appropriate to both current specialists in the field of International and European Studies and those delving into the subject for the first time.

Enquanto a Grécia celebra 200 anos desde o lançamento da Luta Pela Independência Grega (1821-2021) e do 40.º aniversário da adesão da Grécia às Comunidades Europeias (hoje União Europeia), este artigo visa uma análise reflexiva dos principais temas do desenvolvimento que moldaram a identidade estratégica da Grécia, desde 1821 até à recente crise financeira. O presente estudo avalia a literatura existente sobre o tema e traça agendas para investigação futura, a fim de construir sensibilização sobre a importância de aprofundar os nossos conhecimentos sobre as identidades estratégicas distintas dos diferentes Estados-Membros da UE. Compreende dimensões conceptuais e empíricas para aprofundar a apreciação dos desenvolvimentos na política, instituições e políticas gregas e ligá-los a um contexto histórico internacional mais vasto. O principal argumento é que a Grécia tem feito escolhas estratégicas especificas, respondendo ao ambiente político internacional ao longo do tempo, em que a ligação entre o seu legado clássico, a Europa e o Ocidente esteve sempre presente.Research Center in Political Science (University of Minho and University of Évora, Portugal)2021-06-22T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.21814/perspectivas.3371eng2184-39021646-2157Balla, Evanthiainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2022-09-16T16:30:33Zoai:journals.uminho.pt:article/3371Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T15:48:53.379122Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
