    The Radical Left: The Time for its Re-founding

    After 4 years in power, SYRIZA were defeated in both recent elections, finishing behind the conservative New Democracy party in each. In this article written in the wake of the European election but before the results were announced of the legislative election, two leading members of the Greek left Costas Lapavitsas and Stathis Kouvelakis reflect on the reasons for SYRIZA's defeat and what it would take for the radical left to once more win power.
