ABSTRACT
This chapter examines privatisation in Greece. The country has had a privatisation programme since 1991, which has gained the support of both major political parties but has failed so far to generate any spectacular results. The aim of the chapter is to examine the history, process and progress of privatisation in Greece in the period 1991 to 1997. Following this introduction, the next section reviews the relative efficiency of alternative ownership structures (public versus private); then privatisation in Greece is examined. Concluding remarks follow in the last section of the chapter.
