When Greece's economic troubles began to threaten the stability of the European Union in 2010, the nation found itself in the center of a whirlwind of international finger-pointing. In the years prior, Greece appeared to be politically secure and economically healthy. Upon its emergence in the center of the European economic maelstrom, however, observers and critics cited a century of economic hurdles, dictatorships, revolutions, and more reasons as to why their current crisis was understandable, if not predictable. The ancient birthplace of democracy and countless artistic, literary, philosophical, and scientific developments had struggled to catch-up to its economically-thriving neighbors in Western Europe for years and quickly became the most seriously economically-troubled European country following a fiscal nosedive beginning in 2008. When the deficit and unemployment skyrocketed, the resulting austerity measures triggered widespread social unrest. The entire world turned its focus toward the troubled nation, waiting for the possibility of a Greek exit from the European Monetary Union and its potential to unravel the entire Union, with other weaker members heading for the exit as well. The effects of Greece's crisis are also tied up in the global arguments about austerity, with many viewing it as necessary medicine, and still others seeing austerity as an intellectually bankrupt approach to fiscal policy that only further damages weak economies. In Modern Greece: What Everyone Needs to Know(R), Stathis Kalyvas, an eminent scholar of conflict, Europe, and Greece combines the most up-to-date economic and political-science findings on the current Greek crisis with a discussion of Greece's history. Tracing the nation's development from the early nineteenth century to the present, the informative question-and answer format covers key episodes including the independence movement of the early nineteenth century, the massive ethnic cleansing in Turkey and Greece following World War I, the German occupation in World War II, the following brutal civil war, the conflict with Turkey over Cyprus, the military coup of 1967, democracy at long last, and the country's entry into the European Union. Written by one of the most brilliant political scientists in the academy, Modern Greece is the go-to resource for understanding both the current crisis and the historical events that brought the country to where it is today.

Worked perfectly for a long, cold run!
Color: (001) Black / Black / Reflective, Size: Medium
These worked perfectly! They aren’t the warmest but do the job for long cold runs in Texas. I ran a half marathon in 40 degree weather with these on and they kept me warm. They are a bit smaller in size, similar to what other reviewers have said. But I’m a small woman with small hands so the size medium I ordered were perfect. They were warm enough that I took them off at about mile 6. So overall, I’d definitely recommend for a light coverage, snug fit, glove.

Decent UA gloves pricey for the quality
Color: (001) Black / Black / Reflective, Size: Large
The thickness isn’t what I thought it would be. They’re ok for warmth as long as it isn’t single digits or in the negatives. They’re durable so far and grip is good. The size and fit are good for smaller to medium sized hands. It is also good for pressing your phone screen.
