It is considered the most iconic his political slogan post-colonial. One word h “Change”who was identified with the dominant political personality of that time, i.e. Andrea Papandreou and political party PASOKbut it ran horizontally throughout the political system, as many sought to appropriate some of its success.

Andreas Papandreou won the election 1981 with the central slogan “Change”. Perhaps by that time this word had entered the political slogans of other parties, especially from their own region. Left, but after the revolution, this concept became synonymous with PASOK. And it was also used in his election 1985 PASOK again, in what is considered perhaps the most successful and most influential political poster of the post-revolutionary period. “Yes, the joys of change,” reads the poster, which shows a smiling little girl holding a bouquet of flowers. The little girl from Peremena, little Annula, will take the stage at the PASOK campaign rally in Syntagma in May 1985 to present flowers to Andreas Papandreou, who holds them in his hands. A few years later 2019, Alexis Tsipras will be accused of copying the pioneering movement of Andreas Papandreou in 1985 when, in a speech in Kalamata, he picks up a little girl who comes on stage and offers him flowers.

The official opposition party and its president have often challenged PASOK’s memory keepers by “exploiting” images and slogans. Literally yesterday Nikos Androulakis attacked Alexis Tsipras, accusing him of becoming “the gravedigger of Andreas Papandreou”.

However, back in 1985, it was the KKE that included in its poster the slogan “I am young, I want change, I vote for the KKE”, and the KKE Esoteric issued an invitation “For a new course of change”.

1990 V N.D. depict the fall of the Berlin Wall on your poster. “The world is changing. – Us?” he asked. For the PASOK youth to answer: “Yes, the world is changing. N.D. always remains the same,” but also the Coalition, which “yes, the world is changing … with the young and the left.” PASOK returned to its almost existential slogan in 2000, when party posters said “Greece is changing” In 2004, under the leadership of George Papandreou, the slogan became “Raise Andreas to see the child of change”.In the 2007 election campaign, George Papandreou speaks of the prospect of forming a government of a new Change, and the slogan “Victory of a new Change” dominates.

PASOK, ND, SYRIZA and KKE have included this slogan on their posters from time to time.

OUR SYRIZA in 2012, he calls “change” in his slogans when he calls for a “coup in Greece – changes in Europe”. In the next elections, in 2015, on the posters of SYRIZA “Greece is moving forward. Europe is changing.”

And we are approaching 2018, when the degenerates of the heavy memorial period PASOK it is transformed so that the identification with the change is imprinted in the identity. This is how it’s born Change movement.

In the 2019 elections, it is Kyriakos Mitsotakis who is asking for the support of the citizens in order to bring about “great political change”.

This change is also being mobilized in intra-party elections to select a new PASOK leadership in 2021. George Papandreou emphasizes that “we need new changes”, and Andreas Loverdos speaks with the slogan “Change is the truth”.

In view of the forthcoming elections, PASOK is returning to its firm promise: “Together on May 21, we will make change possible.” Alexis Tsipras presented the SYRIZA program as a “Contract for Change” and provoked Harilaou Trikoupi’s “grave-digging” reaction. “Change” takes the place of Alexis Tsipras in SYRIZA’s controversial “Mitsotakis or Change” slogan, perhaps in Komunduru’s last desperate attempt to “wake up” in the anger of PASOK’s once-wide social majority rivalry between Konstantinos Mitsotakis and Andreas Papandreou.
