Some of them are Dr Vin DʼCruz, Dr Baden Offord, Mr Christopher Mcfarlane, Mr John Ryan, Dr Helen Nickas, Dr Tseen Khoo, Mrs Ada Paradissis and her son Michael, Mr Graeme Bridge, Dr Glen Phillips and his wife Rita. Some of them opened their homes and lives to me, introduced me to many of their friends and beloved ones, and all of them were generous with their time, knowledge and resources and kept in touch when I returned to Spain. Having met them has clearly widened my understanding of the world and it is one of the highlights of this process. Many people have been extremely generous to me over these years: authors who gave me or sent me some of their books, such as Dr David Carter and Dr George Kanarakis, and members of the National Centre for Hellenic Studies and Research at La Trobe University, who donated many books and guided me to the figure of Dr Aristides George Paradissis. I also want to show my appreciation to those who agreed to meet me, such as Dr Konstandina Dounis, MP Maria Vamvakinou and her husband: Dr Michalis S. Michael, and Dr Mabel Lee, as well as to those who replied to my e-mails, such as Dr Ouyang Yu, and to Dr Eugenia Tsoulis, who approved the paper I wrote about her novel. My thanks also go to the Chancellor of the Centre dʼEnsenyament Superior Alberta Giménez (CESAG), who allowed me to take a leave in order to write this thesis. As a member of the staff, I was able to use the interlibrary loan service at the Universitat de les Illes Balears (UIB). I want to express my gratitude to all the librarians and secretaries I encountered at various institutions for their professionalism and kindness.

  • An Examination of Australians of Hellenic Descent in the State Parliament of Victoria
    LOUCA.qxd 15/1/2001 3:19 ìì Page 115 Louca, Procopis 2003. An Examination of Australians of Hellenic Descent in the State Parliament of Victoria. In E. Close, M. Tsianikas and G. Frazis (Eds.) “Greek Research in Australia: Proceedings of the Fourth Biennial Conference of Greek Studies, Flinders University, September 2001”. Flinders University Department of Languages – Modern Greek: Adelaide, 115-132. An Examination of Australians of Hellenic Descent in the State Parliament of Victoria Procopis Louca Victoria, the second most populated State in Australia, is widely claimed to include as its capital the third largest Grecophone city in the world, after Athens and Thessaloniki. The Victorian State Parliament has more members of Greek and Cypriot (Hellenic) background, than any other jurisdiction in the Commonwealth of Australia. Continuing a series of analyses of the role of elected State and Federal representatives of Hellenic descent in Australia (Louca, 2001), this paper will focus on the Victorian State Parliament, but with reference also to current and former Victorian Federal parliamentarians. There is an exploration of the cultural, political, social and personal influ- ences that guided these individuals to seek election to Parliament and their experiences as politicians with a Hellenic background. As at the beginning of 2002, six sitting members in the Victorian Parliament have a Hellenic background. Four represent the Australian Labor Party (ALP), two the Liberal Party. They are: Alex Andrianopoulos ALP Peter Katsambanis Liberal Nicholas Kotsiras Liberal Jenny Mikakos ALP John Pandazopoulos ALP Theo Theophanous ALP In addition to these current members, there are also two others who have re- tired from Parliament, or are deceased, Theo Sidiropoulos ALP (deceased) 115 Archived at Flinders University: dspace.flinders.edu.au LOUCA.qxd 15/1/2001 3:19 ìì Page 116 PROCOPIS LOUCA and Dimitri Dollis ALP (retired).

  • How Has the Phenomenon of Revolutionary Groups Been Resilient in Greece? a Relational Study of Two Contentious Episodes (1965 – 2002)
    How Has the Phenomenon of Revolutionary Groups Been Resilient in Greece? A Relational Study of Two Contentious Episodes (1965 – 2002) Sotirios Karampampas Department of Politics University of Sheffield A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2017 Acknowledgements If life is a journey, then PhD is a remote island in a wild ocean. It is a solitary trip in yourself and the great world that stands beside you ready to be discovered. This trip would have been, though, impossible without the help and active support of a number of people that deserve to be named as the least sign of gratitude. First, I want to thank my supervisors, Prof. Maria Grasso, Dr Liza Stampnitzky and Dr Rhiannon Vickers. Maria has been a great inspiration throughout the process, as through her advice, guidance and comments contributed significantly to this work. Besides, through her general attitude and mentality made me want to become better as a researcher and academic. Lisa was there in the final stages of the PhD, providing highly-appreciated feedback and helping me to (re)gain a macro-level perspective to the whole project. Finally, Rhiannon provided great feedback and support during the first two crucial years of this project. Thank you all for the great support. I also want to thank those that helped with all their “paddling” to keep me and this project afloat. A big thanks, then, (in order of appearance…) to Martha, Hisham, Giannis, Dimitris and Andreas that managed to make my life in Sheffield easier. A huge thanks goes to my family: my mother, my father and my sister that believed in me, even in times – especially for those – that I did not.

  • Thesis Does Not Exceed 80,000 Words (Without Bibliography, Footnotes, and References)
    Contesting Austerity: A Comparative Approach to the Cycles of Protest in Portugal and Spain under the Great Recession (2008-2015) Tiago Miguel Lopes Carvalho This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Department of Sociology Wolfson College University of Cambridge December 2018 Preface Declarations This dissertation is the result of my own work and includes nothing which is the outcome of work done in collaboration. It is not substantially the same as any that I have submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for a degree or diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar institution. I further state that no substantial part of my dissertation has already been submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for any such degree, diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar institution. In accordance with the Department of Sociology guidelines, this thesis does not exceed 80,000 words (without bibliography, footnotes, and references). Date: December 2018 Tiago Miguel Lopes Carvalho PhD Candidate in Sociology Wolfson College 1 Contesting Austerity: A Comparative Approach to the Cycles of Protest in Portugal and Spain under the Great Recession (2008-2015) This dissertation compares the contentious responses to austerity in Portugal and Spain in the context of the Eurozone crisis and the Great Recession between 2008 and 2015. Despite many similarities in the origins and socio-economic effects of the crisis, the dynamics of contention in each country differed in terms of number, rhythm and actors. While Portugal and Spain experienced parallel protest dynamics until 2011, after that point the former falls into a pattern of “stop-and-go” with sporadic large events by social movements.
