Abstract
Abstract:During the Civil War in Greece (1946–1949), thousands of people were tried by Special Courts-Martial and sentenced to a range of very harsh penalties, including death. Systematic research into the complete archive of the Special Courts-Martial allows a determination of the exact number of people tried as well as the penalties imposed, filling the existing bibliographical gap. Quantitative analysis of the data highlights the primary objective of the Special Courts-Martial, which was to eliminate the Democratic Army and punish communists and their supporters rather than to deliver justice. It also lays bare the correlation between the intensity and scope of military operations and the tempo of Special Courts-Martial at the national and local levels.
