Greek protests as a reality show
In the news, arson and riots in Athens looked really disturbing. But I also heard the point of view of people who have already lived in Greece. My professor warned me that during his four-year stay in Athens protests on all sorts of occasions took place at least once a week. This sounded strange to me but now I know it is true. The December protests in 2008 were indeed more violent and lasted longer than usual, but generally such manifestations are not an event in Greece.
