The Ionian State, a European territorial reconļ¬gurations that followed the wars of the early nineteenth century, remains among the least understood. Xenocracy oļ¬ers a much-needed account of the region during its half-century as a Protectorate of Great Britain, a period that embodied all of the contradictions of British colonialism. A middle class of merchants, lawyers and state oļ¬cials embraced and promoted a liberal modernization project. Yet despite the improvements experienced by many Ionians, the deterioration of state ļ¬nances led to divisions along class lines and presented a signiļ¬cant threat to social stability. Sakis Gekas shows that the impasse engendered de- pendency upon and ambivalence toward Western Europe, anticipating the āneocolonial condition with which the Greek nation struggles even today.
