We chose the Acropolis Museum, as a new, emerging cultural organization in the European periphery which engages in public actions, in the form of symbolic initiatives, in order to set a specific cultural agenda for Greek and international media. We scrutinize seven symbolic initiatives publicized by the museum, as attributes that influence media content. We conclude that development of cultural/educational services, advertising and marketing, visitor/customer relations, partnerships, symbolic actions, special events, and supporting services constitute significant cultural attributes, which strategically become a part of the media agenda, thereby contributing toward the building of a museum agenda.

  • Armed Forces Intervention in Post-War Turkey: a Methodological Approach of Greek Newspapers Through Political Analyses
    PHOKION KOTZAGEORGIS ARMED FORCES INTERVENTION IN POST-WAR TURKEY: A METHODOLOGICAL APPROACH OF GREEK NEWSPAPERS THROUGH POLITICAL ANALYSES The Press as a political-social phenomenon may influence the forma­ tion of one’s conscience, make or break governments and influence public opinion in a decisive way. As an institution it may play an extremely important role in the writing of a countiy’s contemporary history. It is only recently that this last function of the Press has become the object of scientific research, resulting in the first attempts to write history using newspapers as the basic source. The present article aspires to contribute to the process of ‘deciphering’ the role played by the Press in the formulation or crystallisation of behaviours, political or other, vis-a-vis given facts or phenomena. The article aims at signposting the methodological principles in the presentation by the Greek newspapers of an external affairs event and its use by the political affairs editors of these newspapers. This article was con­ ceived in the course of study of the political game in Turkey as the prominence of the role of the army in that country became evident to the author. The actual cases of army intervention will not be dealt with here; what is of in­ terest is the reaction of the newspapers to the three military interventions in the political life of Turkey. In date order these took place on 27 May 1960, 12 March 1971 and 12 September 1980. The sources chosen are newspapers easily accessible to the public, of differing political persuasions; the time terminus of study is one month be­ fore and one after the date of intervention of the military.

In the absence of strong criticism, selected clergy, journalists, and politicians have brought their extreme views into mainstream discussion, the effect of which seeds anti-Semitic views within the larger Greek population. Manifestation of anti-Semitism in Reporting and Commentary on the Middle East Crisis Anti-Israeli sentiment regarding the ongoing Israeli/Palestinian conflict and perceived threats to the Greek Orthodox Christian culture, continue to fuel the majority of anti-Semitic comments and incidents reported in the Greek media.

The outbreak of rage knew no bounds and was not restricted to any political party. ‘Shame on the mandarins!’ was the indignant cry of the right-wing daily Vradyni, while the liberal newspaper To Vima spoke of ‘unprecedented blackmail’, and the left-wing Eleftherotypia wrote of ‘betrayal!’ On the Thursday before last, the EC Commission of the Community of the Nine had decided that it would implement the request by Athens to have Greece admitted as the tenth member of the EC only after a ‘preparatory’ phase of unspecified length.

  • 2015 Greece Country Report | SGI Sustainable Governance Indicators
    Sustainable Governance Indicators SGI 2015 Greece Report Dimitri A. Sotiropoulos, Kevin Featherstone, Roy Karadag (Coordinator) SGI 2015 | 2 Greece Report Executive Summary During the period under review, Greece made progress with regard to fiscal consolidation and structural reforms, including the liberalization of labor relations and formerly closed occupations, and the privatizations of a few state-owned enterprises. In addition, the banking system became much more stable. The quality of democracy, however, did not improve as greatly. The coalition government of the center-right New Democracy (ND) party and the center-left Panhellenic Socialist Movement (PASOK) party, pressed by the Troika (the European Commission, European Central Bank and IMF), adopted policies through decrees, circumventing the parliament. These decrees were issued in the face of strong opposition from the radical left party (Syriza) and the communist party (KKE) as well as parties on the right (both the populist- nationalist Independent Greeks party and the neo-Nazi Golden Dawn party). Moreover, reactions from disaffected interest groups and social movements continued in the form of violent demonstrations and occupations of government buildings. After the successive elections of May and June 2012, a tripartite coalition government was formed: ND, PASOK and the moderate Democratic Left (Dimokratiki Aristera, DIMAR) party. This tripartite coalition lasted only until June 2013, when the prime minister and leader of ND, Antonis Samaras, ordered the closure of the public broadcaster (ERT), including all state TV and radio stations in Greece. This abrupt move allowed the government to meet the Troika’s quota for public employee dismissals, but also provoked the exit of DIMAR from the coalition government.
