  • Healthcare Resources Consumed by Foreign Patients in the Public Hospitals of East Macedonia and Thrace
    International Journal of Economics & Business Administration pp. 119- 140 Volume II, Issue (2), 2014 Healthcare Resources Consumed by Foreign Patients in the Public Hospitals of East Macedonia and Thrace Georgios Tsitsakis1 Christos Batzios2, Giannoula Florou3, Anastasios Karasavvoglou4, Persefoni Polychronidou5 Abstract: The rising healthcare expenditures as percentage of GDP is a reality that all developed countries have to deal with. Epidemiologic standards have changed dramatically since the past. The rapid development of knowledge in the scientific field of medicine and the new state of the art medical technology has led to new treatments for various health problems. Prior fatal diseases have become chronic, and life expectancy has risen significantly, leading healthcare costs to explosion. Healthcare spending in Greece has been increased between 2000 and 2009 at a rapid rate of 6.1% per year, but it has dropped the following years, driven by a sharp reduction in public spending on health care as part of government-wide efforts to reduce the large budgetary deficit. This situation has caused an increasing offence sense in population. On the other hand, the last years, Greece has become an immigrant (legal and illegal) reception centre.This study presents comparative data about the consumed resources by Greek and foreign patients in the public hospitals of east Macedonia and Thrace for the years 2006-2010. Key Words: Healthcare Resources, Public Hospitals, Migrants JEL Classification: D23, D74 1Technological Educational Institute of

  • 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 Oligocene Xanthi Pluton, Northern Greece: a Granodiorite Emplaced During Regional Extension
    Journal ofthe Geological Society, London, Vol. 148, 1991, pp. 749-758, 7 figs, 1 table. Printed in Northern Ireland The Oligocene Xanthi pluton, northern Greece: a granodiorite emplaced during regional extension I. KOUKOUVELAS' & G. PE-PIPER2 Department of Geology, University of Patras, 261 10 Patras, Greece Department of Geology, St Mary 'S University, Halifax, N.S. Canada B3H 3C3 Abstract: TheXanthi pluton is one of aseries of Oligocenesubduction-related granodiorites in northern Greece. Its emplacement was controlled by major faults. It is located on the ENE-trending Kavala-Komotini fault zone, which probably originated as a strike-slip fault. Geophysical data show that the pluton is laccolith-shaped, extending many kilometres south of the fault. Andesitic dykes several million yearsolder than the pluton indicate a NE-SW-directed extensional stress field. Minerallineations plunging tothe SW reflect continuedextension during cooling of thepluton. Subsequent jointing and dykes of aplite and lamprophyre reflect continued extension. Although this could result from extensional pull-apart at a bend during dextral strike-slip motion on the Kavala- Komotini fault, there is no evidence for subsequent strike-slip deformation. Furthermore, two similar laccolithic plutonsare unrelated to the Kavala-Komotini fault and the regional extent of thick Oligocene sediments suggests an extensional environment. During the extension that created a ramp spacealong the listric faultbounding the Xanthi basin, into which thegranite was intruded, the Kavala-Komotinifault acted as a transfer fault. Reactivation of earlyjoints occurred during late Oligocene-EarlyMiocene compression. Faults within thepluton parallel to the Kavala-Komotini faultaccompanied extension during Neogene basin formation. Emplacement of subduction-related magma into ramp space developed along listric faults, to produce laccolith-like plutons, may be a common feature of back-arc extension.

  • 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.

    The trail from Palaia Kavala to Kavala This fascinating trail links the settlement of Palaia Kavala with the city of Kavala. This is a relatively gentle 10.5km trail which crosses a typical Mediterranean landscape of kermes (downy) oaks, junipers, elms, maples and oriental hornbeams. It winds along streams with lush vegetation and water dominating throughout. The trail is well signposted and provides many viewpoints with resting places allowing for a not-too-strenuous hike along a route of particular environmental and historical interest. The first part of the trail is about 5.5km long, leading to Mana tou nerou (= mother of the water ) which provided the main source of water for Kavala over the centuries. The second section of 5km, continuing from Mana tou nerou to Agios Konstantinos in the northern outskirts of the town, has long been known as “the waterway”. This follows the water channel, which conveyed water to the rocky peninsula of Panaghia , where the historic part of the city is situated. The trail crosses bridges, fountains and purifying cisterns of the medieval aqueduct of Kavala, highlighting a centuries-old water route and a great historic public construction. 1 Palaia Kavala, the starting point of the trail, has enormous historical and environmental resonance, being in close proximity to several archaeological sites such as Philippi and the prehistoric Dikili Tash . The trail’s end, Kavala, with the Kamares , the Panaghia peninsula and the castle further emphasise its cultural importance. 2 PALAIA KAVALA Distance : 5,667.5 m Time : 2-2.5 hrs Difficulty rate : easy MANA TOU NEROU From Palaia Kavala to ...”Mana tou nerou” Palaia Kavala, in the foothills of the Lekani mountain range, is the starting point of the trail and can be reached either from the Kavala-Drama road by following the signs for Zygos and Palaia Kavala or, alternatively, from the Kavala-Xanthi road by turning leſt at the Chalkero junction and following the signs for Palaia Kavala.
