Syriza emerged as the largest party from the Greek parliamentary election held on 20 September 2015. Ioannis Chatziantoniou writes on what the new government should do to attempt to revive the country’s economy. He argues that the key priority should be to establish long-term prospects for its workforce instead of simply short-run opportunities of employment.
