Alexis Tsipras, the president of the Left-wing Syriza party in Greece, recently visited the LSE for a lecture and seminar. Bob Hancké, who attended the event, raises some questions about Syriza’s plans for recovery. He also reopens the debate on Greek exports in the tourism industry, arguing that Greece might be able to generate new growth by upgrading its tourist facilities.
