In the post-liberalisation economy, Rallis's businesses underwent strong pushes and pulls, culminating in a phase of heavy losses in 2000-03.

  • Tourism Development in Greek Insular and Coastal Areas: Sociocultural Changes and Crucial Policy Issues
    Tourism Development in Greek Insular and Coastal Areas: Sociocultural Changes and Crucial Policy Issues Paris Tsartas University of the Aegean, Michalon 8, 82100 Chios, Greece The paperanalyses two issuesthat have characterised tourism development inGreek insularand coastalareas in theperiod 1970–2000. The firstissue concerns the socioeco- nomic and culturalchanges that have taken place in theseareas and ledto rapid– and usuallyunplanned –tourismdevelopment. The secondissue consists of thepolicies for tourismand tourismdevelopment atlocal,regional and nationallevel. The analysis focuseson therole of thefamily, social mobility issues,the social role of specific groups, and consequencesfor the manners, customs and traditionsof thelocal popula- tion.It also examines the views and reactionsof localcommunities regarding tourism and tourists.There is consideration of thenew productive structuresin theseareas, including thedowngrading of agriculture,the dependence of many economicsectors on tourism,and thelarge increase in multi-activityand theblack economy. Another focusis on thecharacteristics of masstourism, and on therelated problems and criti- cismsof currenttourism policies. These issues contributed to amodel of tourism development thatintegrates the productive, environmental and culturalcharacteristics of eachregion. Finally, the procedures and problemsencountered in sustainabledevel- opment programmes aiming at protecting the environment are considered. Social and Cultural Changes Brought About by Tourism Development in the Period 1970–2000 The analysishere focuseson three mainareas where these changesare observed:sociocultural life, productionand communication. It should be noted thata large proportionof all empirical studies of changesbrought aboutby tourism development in Greece have been of coastal and insular areas. Social and cultural changes in the social structure The mostsignificant of these changesconcern the family andits role in the new ‘urbanised’social structure, social mobility and the choicesof important groups, such as young people and women.

  • The Emigration of Muslims from the Greek State in the 19Th Century
    BALCANICA POSNANIENSIA XXVII Poznań 2020 THE EMIGRATION OF MUSLIMS FROM THE GREEK STATE 1 IN THE 19TH CENTURy. AN OUTLINE kr z y s z t o f Po P e k Abstract. Modern Greek statehood began to take shape with the War of Independence that broke out in 1821 and continued with varying intensity for the next years. As a result of these events, the Greeks cast of the foreign rule, which for many not only meant separation from the Ottoman Empire, but also the expulsion of Muslims living in these lands. During the uprising, about 25 000 Muslims lost their lives, and a similar number emigrated from the territory of the future Greek state. The next great exodus of Muslims from Greek lands was related to the an- nexation of Thessaly by the Hellenic Kingdom, which was to a larger extent spread over time. Since the region was incorporated into Greece until the beginning of the 20th century, the 40 000-strong Islamic community had virtually disappeared.

  • Greek Maritime History of the 18Th Century: a New Project
    185 K ATERINA P A P A K ONSTANTINOU / A THENS Greek Maritime History of the 18th Century: A new project In a symposium organised in memory of Professor Gunnar Hering, I feel that it is most appropriate to discuss commerce and transport in the northern Balkans, for it is pertinent to my PhD thesis, initiated at the Institut für Byzantinistik und Neogräzistik. Exactly ten years ago, at the very beginning of my PhD course, it was Professor Gunnar Hering along with Professor Olga Katsiardi-Hering who suggested that I focus my research on a particu- lar collection of documents, preserved within the National Archives of Hungary, that concerned the activities of Greek merchants in the northern Balkans and Hungary in the second half of the eighteenth century.1 How- ever, after I completed my PhD I did not have the opportunity to continue my research on this subject, and, to my surprise, I changed the area of my research from the terrestrial to the maritime commerce. One may, of course, say that where the roads end the sea routes begin, and that commerce cannot be limited by borders of any kind. Products from the hinterland were carried on donkeys and horses to ports, wherefrom they were loaded on ships to be transported to other ports. In certain cases, traders had the opportunity to choose between the cara- van of donkeys and the ship as means of transport. Most interesting is the case of Ragusa/Dubrovnik, which until the early eighteenth century was the main port of export of the produce of the Balkans to Italy.

    Special Edition: 200th Anniversary of the Greek War of Independence 1821-2021 18 1821-2021 A publication of the Dean C. and Zoë S. Pappas Interdisciplinary March 2021 VOLUME 1 ISSUE NO. 3 Center for Hellenic Studies and the Friends of Hellenic Studies From the Director Dear Friends, On March 25, 1821, in the city of Kalamata in the southern Peloponnesos, the chieftains from the region of Mani convened the Messinian Senate of Kalamata to issue a revolutionary proclamation for “Liberty.” The commander Petrobey Mavromichalis then wrote the following appeal to the Americans: “Citizens of the United States of America!…Having formed the resolution to live or die for freedom, we are drawn toward you by a just sympathy; since it is in your land that Liberty has fixed her abode, and by you that she is prized as by our fathers.” He added, “It is for you, citizens of America, to crown this glory, in aiding us to purge Greece from the barbarians, who for four hundred years have polluted the soil.” The Greek revolutionaries understood themselves as part of a universal struggle for freedom. It is this universal struggle for freedom that the Pappas Center for Hellenic Studies and Stockton University raises up and celebrates on the occasion of the 200th anniversary of the beginning of the Greek Revolution in 1821.

    War, Crisis and sovereign Loans: The greek War of independenCe and BriTish eConomiC expansion in The 1820s* Maria Christina Chatziioannou abstract: This article focuses on the principal actors who undertook the financial intermediation of the greek loans of 1824 and 1825 and the agents who carried it out, the financial market, the stock market exchange and the joint-stock corporate organization. The main argument is that there was an asymmetric relationship between these principal actors and agents. my research hypothesis works on the convergence of two different crises at the same time: the systemic banking crisis of 1825 in London; and the severe internal crisis for the insurgent greeks. i argue that the causes for these “hapless loans” could be more complex, beyond the known moral critique. The two loans obtained by the greeks during the course of the greek War of independence, specifically in 1824 and 1825, are important because they essentially constitute the first international recognition of the greek state. Two daunting economic challenges marked that same period, on the one hand in greece, civil strife, financial hardship and the inability to sustain and equip the insurgency, and on the other in the City of London, the 1825 bank panic. additionally, the administration of the two loans, while the struggle against ottoman rule was still at a critical stage, opened up a very important chapter in anglo-greek relations at a time when Britain’s expansionist economy was taking off. during this period, British philhellenism and political liberalism would encounter the principles of free trade and the new entrepreneurial strategy developing in Britain in the 1820s.
