The Latins in Greece: a Brief Introduction
chapter 1 The Latins in Greece: A Brief Introduction Nickiphoros I. Tsougarakis The Fourth Crusade and the sack of Constantinople by the crusaders cast a long shadow on Greece’s subsequent history and on relations between Greeks and western Europeans down to the present day. Pope John Paul ii’s apology to the Orthodox for the events of the crusade, in 2001, and the satisfaction with which it was received by certain sections of the clergy and of wider Greek soci- ety serves to illustrate, if not the actual impact of the events themselves, at least popular perceptions of the events in Greece and the West as well as the use made of these events in 20th-century historiography. Today, the relations of the medieval western world with the Greek/Byzantine East may be more relevant than ever. The Eurozone crisis of the early 2010s has been accompa- nied by the re-emergence in segments of the press and society (both Greek and western European) of negative national stereotypes emphasising the differ- ences between Greek and western-European culture and questioning whether a union between the two is viable or indeed desirable. The terms ‘Latin Greece’, which features in the title of this volume, and ‘medieval Greece’, which also features in the book, may require some explana- tion. Here, they are used as shorthand to refer to the Latin polities that were founded on Byzantine lands in the aftermath of the Fourth Crusade. They can be taken therefore as rough synonyms for the political entity known as the Latin Empire of Constantinople or Romania, as it was more commonly called by Latin contemporaries.

And Macedonia (Pp
Summer 2018 - Greece (pp. 1-9) and Macedonia (pp. 9 -16) - Elly’s notes I traveled to Greece for a second summerschool (see here for the first). I left Arizona on a Monday morning and arrived in Thessaloniki on Tuesday afternoon before traveling on to Naxos on Wednesday. Thessaloniki is the second largest city in Greece and the capital of the Greek province of Macedonia. After Naxos, I would be traveling to the Republic of Macedonia which, under Greek pressure, may be changing its name to the Republic of Northern Macedonia (more below). Of course, some Greek nationalists don’t want the name Macedonia mentioned at all and some Macedonians don’t like the change either. When I was here, a scandal erupted of meddling by the Russians who don’t want this `deal’ either since it will pave the way for Macedonia to join NATO. Thessaloniki was built and rebuilt many times: it went from a pre-historic settlement to Macedonian, Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman rule. Its fire in 1917 made it possible to plan a new city (see picture below). It was on the Via Egnatia (as is Ohrid) which connected Rome to Istanbul and is now a footpath. Old city walls are still around. Thessaloniki’s grid Typical building 1 More varied building styles Thessaloniki citywalls From Thessaloniki, I went to Naxos for the summer school (with some 35 participants some of whom are shown below). Naxos continues to be a wonderful place: lots of history, swimming, and hiking. Some highlights follow below. Summer school (these two pictures are by Kristel Fischer) 2 Moni Chrisostomou overlooks the chora of Naxos; two nuns remain in the monastery, which has a most beautiful church.

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.

White washed houses, turquoise blue seas, olive groves and sun parched landscapes. It is here where man lived in harmony with the environment for thousands of years and we believe that hiking in Cycladic islands offers you a unique opportunity to connect with their past and present. Step by step you will get to know the secrets of the islands, each of them stamped with its own unique character. The trip starts in Naxos, the largest and one of the most extraordinary islands of the Cyclades if one can be in a position to choose. It is an island with incredible landscape interchanges, Venetian castles and traditional villages perched on the cliffs of its mountains. After spending three days there we will take the ferry to Koufonisi, the small diamond of the Cyclades, which lies within between Naxos and Amorgos. Life goes on slowly here, in a microcosm living with its own relaxed rhythms, right in the middle of the Cyclades. Different sense of time, different behaviors, different dimensions. Last destination on our trip will be the island of Amorgos, marked by tradition and history. The mountainous island is still a well-kept secret destination, and a hiker’s paradise. If you are searching for “Original Greece” you should definitely visit Amorgos.

Sustainable Tourism Development in the Greek Islands and the Role of Tourism Research and Education G
Sustainable Tourism Development in the Greek Islands and the Role of Tourism research and Education G. ZAHARATOS P. TSARTAS 1. Tourist development and labour market features - in relation to education - in the Greek islands1 In the post-war period, Greek islands have been one of the most important tourist poles of the country. Their development features, which vary considerably and form different tourist development patterns, constitute an interesting research subject, especially in the context of sustainable tourism. In the first part of our paper, we shall examine the tourist development features in the Greek islands and the characteristics of the tourist labour market in conjunction with the education level of people employed in the tourist sector. In the second part we shall elaborate on those factors which contribute towards more sustainable development patterns in the Greek islands. Finally, in the third part, we shall suggest a set of measures and interventions in tourist research and education, which can shape a positive framework for the sustainable tourism development in the Greek islands. (a) Tourist development features in the Greek islands Tourist development in the Greek islands is characterised by a wide variety of types and models of infrastructure and services supplied. The most important factors which have contributed in shaping this insular tourist development are the following: • The non-coherent nature of tourist development together with the lack of programming and planning in the islands. • The effort to adjust infrastructure and services to different demand requirements - especially those of international demand. • The post-war tourist policy at both national and regional revels.
