Abstract
The unprecedented floods devastating the agricultural region of Thessaly, Central Greece, in 2023 were a major disaster in the country’s recent history, with ongoing effects. This Euro-commentary tries to uncover the crisis-driven governmental discourse put in place after the disaster as a moment in the wider global neoliberal depoliticized manipulation of similar events.
