One hundred and eighty years after the assassination of Governor Ioannis Kapodistrias, fourteen distinguished historians and young researchers attempt a reassessment of his personality and work. From his arrival in Greece until today, his governance has been both praised and criticized, while the different approaches of contemporary historians regarding his intentions and actions are of great interest. The book examines various aspects of his historical actions: his tenure in the Russian diplomatic service, his government work, his economic and foreign policies, the role and actions of the opposition, external interventions, his conflicts with prominent Greeks of his time, and other topics. The goal is not to deconstruct his historical role, but to reassess it. Contemporary research sometimes confirms the magnitude of his contribution and sometimes intensifies the questioning.
