Is Greece exceptional or is it just a typical small Balkan or easte rn Mediterranean country? This lecture will argue that to consider what is distinctive about any nation\, one must place it in a transnational conte xt. Some topics seem unique to Greece\, such as the acrid nature of the Na tional Schism\, and the fact that Greece was the only post-World War Two c ountry to succumb to civil war\, but such developments can be made more ex plicable when global influences and developments are considered. Globalizi ng modern Greek history also means giving serious consideration to the dia spora and what its history says about Greece in the twentieth and twenty-f irst centuries.\n DTSTART:20251112T230000Z DTEND:20251113T010000Z LOCATION:Ballroom\, Faculty Club\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0E5\, 3450 rue McTavish SUMMARY:The Tom Nacos and family annual lecture: Globalizing Modern Greek h istory: What does it mean?
