| KARAMANLIS AND THE
RESTORATION OF DEMOCRACY
Karamanlis faced the formidable task
of clearing the wreckage left by the seven years of military rule.
There were two major domestic missions: the restoration of a full
range of political parties and reestablishing the military as a
positive force. A new constitution and a legitimate referendum on
the monarchy were the main legislative priorities, but the new role
of the military remained more controversial in the 1970s.
