An excellent 3 minutes clip to highlight the impact of change in government policy in Greece. This amazing footage of Greece shows riots as fire bombs, stones fly in Athens - a reaction of the people to a slash in public spending, reduction of minimum wages and benefit payments. This clip would be a great aid to those students who struggle to evaluate in any ‘effectiveness of policy’ question - Greece is a great Case Study for any IB pupil.
