Anna Triandafyllidou’s article in the European Journal of Migration and Law traces the development of Greek immigration policy over the preceding two decades and examines the role of political parties, trade unions and the Church in shaping it. It describes the policy as reactive and piecemeal, identifies weaknesses in managing immigration flows and excessive bureaucracy, and concludes that political elites lacked the will to adopt a proactive and realistic migration policy plan.
