  • Object Omission in Contact: Object Clitics and Definite Articles in the West Thracian Greek (Evros) Dialect
    journal of language contact 12 (2019) 141-190 brill.com/jlc Object Omission in Contact: Object Clitics and Definite Articles in the West Thracian Greek (Evros) Dialect Nikolaos Lavidas National and Kapodistrian University of Athens [email protected] Ianthi Maria Tsimpli University of Cambridge [email protected] Abstract We examine spontaneous production data from the dialect of Modern West Thracian Greek (mwtg) (the local dialect of Evros) with regard to a hypothesis of syntactic borrowing of verbal transitivity. We argue that mwtg allows omission of the direct object with specific reference, in contrast to Standard Modern Greek (smg) and other Modern Greek (mg) dialects (spoken in Greece), but similar to Turkish. Object omis- sion in mwtg is possible only in contexts where smg and other mg dialects show obligatory use of the 3rd-person clitic. We argue that syntactic borrowing in the case of language contact follows the transfer with second language learners: the relevant elements that host uninterpretable features are used optionally. Moreover, the defi- nite article, in contrast to the indefinite article, is also affected by language contact. The 3rd-person clitic and the definite article are affected by contact as uninterpretable clusters of features. We claim that interpretability plays a significant role in transitivity in cases of language contact.

The generalized practice of judicial authorities to convict newcomers with the offense of illegal entry. 3. The militarization of the Borders 4. Monitoring, advocating, and pursuing strategic litigation on the illegal practices at the land border of Evros. 5. Reception and Identification Center’s (RIC) of Fylakio, Orestiada operation is challenged by the strict measures taken by the government against COVID-19 I. Specific Considerations II.

The new EU pact on the European Common Asylum System 7. An alarming increase in racist speech and acts of racist violence 8. An eye to the Future: a constant need for vigorous and collective advocacy of Human Rights Introduction On the 28th of February 20201 President Erdogan announced that “Turkey will no longer stop Syrian refugees from reaching Europe”, causing diplomatic disputes, violent clashes between newcomers and Greek governmental actors, and an aggressive political response. Since then, the EU Member States continue to enforce highly problematic policies of externalization and militarization of border security. These policies have created a volatile environment, generating fear, distress, and the rise of xenophobic rhetoric in the area. HumanRights360 has identified that such policies have paved the way for persons affiliated with far-right beliefs to exploit and manipulate public opinion in order to purposefully create irrational suspicions for refugees. Aside from the policies enforced due to those incidents, there has also been a significant strengthening of the already strict border politics under the pretense of preventing the dissemination of COVID-19.

    Western Thrace Minority University Graduates Association Egnatias 75, 69100 Komotini-Greece Tel/Fax: +302531029705 E-mail: [email protected] URL: www.btaytd.com MARCH 2009 HATE CRIMES IN WESTERN THRACE In all nation states, the points of view of dominant cultures to people with different ethnic, religious and linguistic backgrounds are mainly based on discrimination. In today’s Europe, more than a 300 million population with different backgrounds and languages are obliged to live together. However, discrimination based on religion and belief, ethnic identity and different culture seems to be more of a threat rather than strength. It is worth to note that communities and minorities who live for centuries in the Balkans differ from the other minorities living across Europe. While most people with different ethnic religious and linguistic background living in north Europe are immigrants, people belonging to national, ethnic or religious and linguistic minorities in the Balkans are indigenous populations. In the Balkans, especially the Muslim communities use ethnicity and religion as an inseparable single identity. In many Balkan countries, the perception of Turkish Minority is also a Muslim Minority and vice versa. Therefore, persons belonging to these minorities are often subject to hate crimes. THE MUSLIM TURKISH MINORITY OF WESTERN THRACE An estimate number of 150.000 ethnic Turks live in the North East part of Greece. Members of the Muslim Turkish Minority who have been living in this region for centuries identify themselves as ethnic Turks. The legal statute of this minority was established with the Peace Treaty of Lausanne which was signed in 1923, the bilateral agreements signed between Greece and Turkey and the international instruments concerning human and minority rights which Greece has signed and ratified.

  • (11.5.2006) the Commission Shares the Concern Expre
    P-1339/06EN P-1348/06EN Answer given by Mr Dimas on behalf of the Commission (11.5.2006) The Commission shares the concern expressed by the Honourable Members in relation to floods. Whilst recognising the importance of adopting appropriate measures at national and local level, the Commission has already taken or proposed a series of initiatives at Community level. In this context, the Commission adopted a Proposal for a Flood Risks Directive1 on 18 January 2006. This Proposal is based on the Commission Communication of July 2004 on flood risk management, flood prevention, protection and mitigation,2 on the conclusions of the Council of October 2005, and on the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee3 and of the Committee of the Regions.4 Moreover, it has taken into consideration the results of a broad consultation exercise with Member States, candidate countries, stakeholders and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) as well as the scientific community. The Proposal aims at legally binding cooperation on flood prevention/protection in shared river basins, on the development of flood maps and of flood risk management plans for those areas where the current flood risk is considered too high. Parliament and Council are currently engaged in a political debate5 on the Proposal. The Commission perceives this legislative proposal as part of an EU Flood Action Plan, which has three distinct, but interlinked, elements: (a) a proposal for a directive; (b) funding instruments6 and the promotion of their best use; (c) further research efforts and facilitation of exchange of experience and knowledge. Measures for flood prevention/protection are already eligible under the current Cohesion Policy instruments 1999-2006.
