Abstract
The ‘crisis elections’ of 2015-16 in Greece, Spain and Portugal revealed the political destabilisation of Southern Europe, resulting in repeat elections, unprecedented processes of government formation and uncharted government outcomes. This volume covers all five parliamentary elections, Greece’s bailout referendum and the five ‘new contender’ parties which became key players in government formation for the first time. The chapters originally published as a special issue in South European Society and Politics
