The starting point is a speculation that institutional attempts to reform urban policy and planning throughout the period 1974-89 remained largely inactive. We hold that this inefficiency is an outcome of a compound political, economic and institutional process linked to the characteristics of residential land development. Main emphasis is paid on: the role of land policy in determining the modern forms of landownership, the impacts of a widespread small landownership upon the pattern of residential development, and, finally, the way politics and ideology are enmeshed in policies related to the residential development process. From a theoretical standpoint it is argued that the analysis of land development phenomena and the attempts to manage them should the traditional distinctions between the analysis of land development and policy analysis. This interdisciplinary approach should also embrace an understanding of structural influences, whether economic political or institutional, with individual strategies, whether of a specific agent or the final investor in - or consumer of - land. The research is largely based on a historical analysis of state land policy implemented throughout the years 1917 up to contemporary periods. Special emphasis is given to the role of land allocation programmes, which were implemented for the refugee rehabilitation in inter-war years and created a great legacy in land policy. A national account of this policy is provided and the formulation of the first town planning machinery is discussed. The problems and contradictions in urban policy formulation during 1974-89 are examined against the actual institutional practice. A detailed account of state land policy and its repercussions on the structure of urban landed property and the residential development process in Greater Thessaloniki is provided examining more closely the nature and the problems of urban policy and planning in Greater Thessaloniki. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am greatly indebted to my supervisor Professor Derek Diamond for his constant encouragement and valuable help at every stage of this long process of writing a thesis. His generous and kind support, his enormous experience, and his discreet supervision were the main impetus for me to complete this thesis. I would like to acknowledge the Greek State Scholarship Foundation, who granted me with a scholarship that made it possible to finance my studies at the London School of Economics. Special thanks are also due to the Central Research Fund of the University of London, the London School of Economics and the Schilitzi Foundation who granted me with financial support at specific stages of the research. I am deeply grateful to Lefteris Tsoulouvis, for his valuable comments and practical help on parts of this work. The resourceful and continuous debate we had over the years on various aspects of Greek urban development and planning has deeply affected my work. Many of the ideas in this research were also influenced by the stimulating discussions with my sister Tasia Yiannakou-Psaltopoulou. Although coming from the different discipline of medicine, her aspects on Greek social problems have affected my way of thinking. Special thanks are also due to my friend Orly Gilat for her comments in parts of the thesis and our brainstorming correspondence on planning. Mark Goodwin and Michael Hebbert were kind to read early drafts and offer valuable comments. During the course of the research there were many officers in various government and local government departments who helped me a lot but it is not possible to refer to them separately. However, I would like to acknowledge the prompt assistance of Spiros Tsovras, architect of the Settlement Department of Thessaloniki, who also initiated me in the complexities of the Greek Planning Law. The writing of this thesis offered me the chance to meet Wendy Hall, who was the first to correct my English in drafts of this work. I am indebted to her for bringing me also closer to a language that is not my mother tongue. I want also to thank Andy Tsoutsoulopoulou for correcting a few parts.

  • For Municipal Solid Waste Management in Greece
    Journal of Open Innovation: Technology, Market, and Complexity Article Description and Economic Evaluation of a “Zero-Waste Mortar-Producing Process” for Municipal Solid Waste Management in Greece Alexandros Sikalidis 1,2 and Christina Emmanouil 3,* 1 Amsterdam Business School, Accounting Section, University of Amsterdam, 1012 WX Amsterdam, The Netherlands 2 Faculty of Economics, Business and Legal Studies, International Hellenic University, 57001 Thessaloniki, Greece 3 School of Spatial Planning and Development, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, 54124 Thessaloniki, Greece * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +30-2310-995638 Received: 2 July 2019; Accepted: 19 July 2019; Published: 23 July 2019 Abstract: The constant increase of municipal solid wastes (MSW) as well as their daily management pose a major challenge to European countries. A significant percentage of MSW originates from household activities. In this study we calculate the costs of setting up and running a zero-waste mortar-producing (ZWMP) process utilizing MSW in Northern Greece. The process is based on a thermal co-processing of properly dried and processed MSW with raw materials (limestone, clay materials, silicates and iron oxides) needed for the production of clinker and consequently of mortar in accordance with the Greek Patent 1003333, which has been proven to be an environmentally friendly process. According to our estimations, the amount of MSW generated in Central Macedonia, Western Macedonia and Eastern Macedonia and Thrace regions, which is conservatively estimated at 1,270,000 t/y for the year 2020 if recycling schemes in Greece are not greatly ameliorated, may sustain six ZWMP plants while offering considerable environmental benefits. This work can be applied to many cities and areas, especially when their population generates MSW at the level of 200,000 t/y, hence requiring one ZWMP plant for processing.

  • The Ghikas House on Hydra: from Artists’ Haven to Enchanted Ruins
    The Ghikas House on Hydra: From Artists’ Haven to Enchanted Ruins HELLE VALBORG GOLDMAN Norwegian Polar Institute We sat on the terrace under the starry sky and talked about poetry, we drank wine, we swam, we rode donkeys, we played chess—it was like life in a novel. (Ghikas, quoted in Arapoglou 56) Introduction The Greek island of Hydra has become known for the colony of expatriate painters and writers that became established there in the 1950s and 60s (Genoni and Dalziell 2018; Goldman 2018). Two ‘literary houses,’ the homes of several of the island’s most well-known foreign residents during that era—the Australian couple, writers George Johnston and Charmian Clift, and Canadian singer-songwriter Leonard Cohen—have become places of pilgrimage for aficionados of Australian literature and popular music. Visitors wend through the maze of car- less, stone-paved lanes, asking for directions along the way, in order to stand outside the objects of their quests. Standing in the small public courtyard in front of the Johnstons’ house, or the tight laneway fronting the Cohen house, there is not much to see—the houses are quiet, the doors closed, the stone and white-washed walls surrounding the properties, which are typical of Hydra, are high. This doesn’t keep people from coming. They can picture in their minds’ eyes what is on the other side of the walls, having seen photographs of the writers at work and leisure inside the houses, and having read the books and listened to the songs that were written while the Johnstons and Cohen were in residence.

  • Music and Traditions of Thrace (Greece): a Trans-Cultural Teaching Tool 1
    MUSIC AND TRADITIONS OF THRACE (GREECE): A TRANS-CULTURAL TEACHING TOOL 1 Kalliopi Stiga 2 Evangelia Kopsalidou 3 Abstract: The geopolitical location as well as the historical itinerary of Greece into time turned the country into a meeting place of the European, the Northern African and the Middle-Eastern cultures. Fables, beliefs and religious ceremonies, linguistic elements, traditional dances and music of different regions of Hellenic space testify this cultural convergence. One of these regions is Thrace. The aim of this paper is firstly, to deal with the music and the dances of Thrace and to highlight through them both the Balkan and the middle-eastern influence. Secondly, through a listing of music lessons that we have realized over the last years, in schools and universities of modern Thrace, we are going to prove if music is or not a useful communication tool – an international language – for pupils and students in Thrace. Finally, we will study the influence of these different “traditions” on pupils and students’ behavior. Key words: Thrace; music; dances; multi-cultural influence; national identity; trans-cultural teaching Resumo: A localização geopolítica, bem como o itinerário histórico da Grécia através do tempo, transformou o país num lugar de encontro das culturas europeias, norte-africanas e do Médio Oriente. Fábulas, crenças e cerimónias religiosas, elementos linguísticos, danças tradicionais e a música das diferentes regiões do espaço helénico são testemunho desta convergência cultural. Uma destas regiões é a Trácia. O objectivo deste artigo é, em primeiro lugar, tratar da música e das danças da Trácia e destacar através delas as influências tanto dos Balcãs como do Médio Oriente.

  • Neolithic Society in Northern Greece: the Evidence of Ground Stone Artefacts
    Neolithic society in Northern Greece: the evidence of ground stone artefacts Volume I Christina Tsoraki Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Archaeology, University of Sheffield October 2008 to (j3en ABSTRACT Analysis of ground stone technology from the Neolithic of Greece rarely goes beyond incomplete descriptive accounts to focus on the activities performed with these tools and the contexts of their use. Ground stone products are seen as mundane static objects devoid of meaning and lacking significance. The aim of this thesis is to move away from incomplete accounts of ground stone technology and static typologies. Drawing upon the concepts of the chaine operatoire and 'object biographies' this thesis investigates ground stone technology as a social practice focusing on the life-cycle of artefacts from raw material selection to final deposition. The underlying premise is that a contextual approach can contribute to understanding the ways in which the production, consumption and discard of ground stone artefacts were structured within different forms and scales of social practice and the manner in which these differences articulated different meanings and social understandings. The aims of the thesis were materialised through the study of the rich ground stone assemblage from the LN settlement of Makriyalos, Greece. The analysis of the chaine operatoire of the Makriyalos ground stone assemblage revealed diverse technological choices expressed throughout the cycle of production and use. Established traditions existed according to which specific materials were considered to be appropriate for the production of different objects. Furthermore, detailed analysis suggests that the resulting objects were far from mundane artefacts but were instead active media for expressing choices informed by cultural understandings of appropriateness.

Papadopoulos, Chair This research project examines the appearance and proliferation of some of the earliest cremation burials in Europe in the context of the prehistoric north Aegean. Using archaeological and osteological evidence from the region between the Pindos mountains and Evros river in northern Greece, this study examines the formation of death rituals, the role of landscape in the emergence of cemeteries, and expressions of social identities against the backdrop of diachronic change and synchronic variation. I draw on a rich and diverse record of mortuary practices to examine the co-existence of cremation and inhumation rites from the beginnings of farming in the Neolithic period
