Το περιεχόμενο του αρχείου του Κωνσταντίνου Γ. Καραμανλή: Η ευρωπαϊκή του διάσταση

Every researcher, but all interested persons wishing to learn more about the European course of Greece, resorting to the sources found in Greek archives will limit themselves to the respective archival materials preserved in private collections, since to public archives there is no accessibility as of yet. Among the private archival collections the archive of Konstantinos Karamanlis occupies a primary place, given that during his personal governance the Association (1961) took place, followed by the signing of the Treaty of Accession in the E.E.C. (1979). What were the conjunctures that led to the taking of the specific decision that has comprised since then the principles basis of Greek foreign policy? Were there questionings and dilemmas? How did the political world of the country face the issues? What role did the representatives who handled the specific issues play? How decisive was the international conjuncture? Which countries and which political leaders came to the assistance of the Greek requests? What was the European credo of Konstantinos Karamanlis? The researcher will find noteworthy data in his archive in answer to these indicative questions.
