Political parties
PASOK Panhellenic Socialist Movement In power now. Once a leftist party, now more neo-liberal a la Blair and Clinton. (Posted 1/27/02)
ND New Democracy. Main oposition party. More conservative and business oriented, but feeling the same pinch as in UK and USA that traditional conservatives have now to separate themselves from the neo-liberals. Not much English on their web site. (Posted 1/29/02)
KKE Communist Part of Greece. Workers still trying to unite. Gets 3-6% of the vote. (Up 1/17/04)
  [Under construction: see various sources on the government page for links to other parties.]
