European Court of Human Rights rulings will shape a complex global jurisprudence on online speech. Natalie Alkiviadou deserves praise for pioneering scholarship in this challenging and evolving field.»

Alkiviadou N, ‘The Far-Right in Greece and the Law’ (Routledge 2022) 

Extract from review process:

“This is a very interesting book proposal on the Greek far right and the law. It discusses the application of relevant legislation and recent developments in this area. It examines how existing legislation applied. And it criticizes both the legal regime and its application. The author engages with legal cases that are little known internationally. In this respect, the proposal is original. It engages with important materials. Attention to the far-right has been mounting internationally especially since the economic crises. This makes the timing for this book excellent.  The approach that the author follows is very interesting. All the more so, since she discusses also international treaties that apply in Greece.
