Five, almost, years since that January. Five years since Alexis Tsipras took over the governance of Greece with the slogans LEFT FIRST and HOPE IS COMING.
The youngest party leader, only 34 years old! And one of the youngest prime ministers, just 41 years old.
However, after four years in power, Alexis Tsipras is not the same politician. After four years in the prime minister's office, he has matured.
He knows, in other words, how a state like Greece is governed, within Europe, as we all know it. He now understands the European relations of power and the position of our country within them.
So what is his ideology? What is his political strategy? How did he rise to power and what were the most important positions of his tenure? Was there a kind of demobilization? And in any case, what does the future hold for the young politician?
The time has come to shed light on one of the most subversive personalities of modern Greek history. Let's talk about Alexis Tsipras and his four years.
The book by Fotis Kyzakis nicely describes the political career of Alexis Tsipras in recent years. The author's young age equips him with enthusiasm and drive, essential elements, which are, however, accompanied by an impressive maturity. I could say that, by writing the current book about the maturation of Tsipras, he is also maturing at the same time.

Through the cool, but penetrating recording of the events, Kyzakis essentially offers a first-rate study of a transition at the level of political leadership. SYRIZA, and especially its leader, is faced with the demands, pressures and dilemmas of political power within the globalized political environment, in one of the most difficult periods of the country's modern history.

The author, boldly and from the beginning, states that when he was fifteen he had Alexis Tsipras as his role model. Not some idol of the mainstream and TV talent shows. In tender and angry adolescence, he was moved by the trajectory of a young politician in the "post-colonial" socio-political situation as defined by crisis, but also by hope.
