Modern Greek Studies Association
The Modern Greek Studies Association (MGSA) is a scholarly organization for modern Greek studies in North America. It was founded in 1968.
It is interdisciplinary, covering language, history, politics, economics, society, and the arts of modern Greece, broadly defined.
The MGSA sponsors the Journal of Modern Greek Studies (1983- , ISSN 0738-1727, e-ISSN 1086-3265), the only scholarly periodical to focus exclusively on modern Greece.
