Youth, left‑wing voting, and radicalism in the second decade of the 2000s

Report title in the original language

Νεολαία, αριστερή ψήφος και ριζοσπαστισμός τη δεύτερη δεκαετία του 2000

Description

This paper explores whether contemporary Greek youth can be considered politically radical, examining their attitudes, behaviours, and modes of participation during the second decade of the 2000s. Building on earlier research that identified a renewed youth interest in politics, especially after 2008 and throughout the economic crisis—the study investigates the shift of many young people toward left‑wing orientations and more dynamic, participatory forms of engagement.
