Central Macedonia – the region at a glance Indicators per Greek Regions I. Central Macedonia – the region at a glance Strengths and weaknesses STRENGTHS Manufacturing is considerably developed in Central Macedonia. The Region is the centre of a new, but dynamic industrial complex, SMEs in the branches of food and beverage, textile and clothing, furniture, and larger companies in the industries of metal production, chemicals, and plastics. This new productive complex includes most of the 2,800 Greek firms which have invested in the Balkans. The emerging industries and Foreign Direct Investment belong to the tertiary sector, including medicine and health services, software, international retail chains, business services, and tourist services. The region has a strong education and research base, with the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and the University of Macedonia, with 4,000 staff members and 70,000 students. There are also two Technical Educational Institutes and the Thessaloniki Technology Park, which support the local industry. The Prefecture of Thessaloniki, located in Central Macedonia, is the second most important centre in Greece after Attiki: it is a major transport hub, most of the Region's industrial activity is concentrated here, and that its port and airport handle a substantial percentage of the country's imports and exports.

Central Macedonia Innovation Strategy RIS+ Implementation of the RTP Action Plan, DG Regio, 1999-2001 The main objective of "RIS+ Central Macedonia" was to fund the experimental phase of selected projects proposed in the Regional Technology Plan (RTP) Action Plan of Central Macedonia. The RTP constituted a collective effort to support innovation in the Region, through the promotion of applied research, co-operation between research institutions and industry, technology transfer, entrepreneurial capabilities, new production processes and effective competition in the global market. The RTP in Central Macedonia introduced a voluntary planning process in the Region, in the field of innovation. Due to the development of the RTP, innovation became part of the regional planning agenda. The continuous incorporation of innovative actions into regional planning mechanisms constitutes the major achievement of RIS+ in Central Macedonia. II.

Greece The education system in Greece is under the central responsibility and supervision of the state administration, and more specifically, the Ministry of Education, Research and Religious Affairs (MERRA). It consists of three levels: primary, secondary (divided in lower and upper-secondary), and tertiary (higher) education. 1. Overview of the Greek education system According to the Greek constitution, the Greek state is bound to provide all Greek citizens with access to free education at all levels of the state education system. The Greek education system2 consists of three levels: primary, secondary (divided in lower and upper-secondary), and higher (tertiary) education. a) Primary Education3 Primary education includes the pre-primary (kindergarten/‘παιδικός σταθμός’/paidikos stathmos) and the primary schools (‘δημοτικό’/dimotiko).

  • 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 Statistical Battle for the Population of Greek Macedonia
    XII. The Statistical Battle for the Population of Greek Macedonia by Iakovos D. Michailidis Most of the reports on Greece published by international organisations in the early 1990s spoke of the existence of 200,000 “Macedonians” in the northern part of the country. This “reasonable number”, in the words of the Greek section of the Minority Rights Group, heightened the confusion regarding the Macedonian Question and fuelled insecurity in Greece’s northern provinces.1 This in itself would be of minor importance if the authors of these reports had not insisted on citing statistics from the turn of the century to prove their points: mustering historical ethnological arguments inevitably strengthened the force of their own case and excited the interest of the historians. Tak- ing these reports as its starting-point, this present study will attempt an historical retrospective of the historiography of the early years of the century and a scientific tour d’horizon of the statistics – Greek, Slav and Western European – of that period, and thus endeavour to assess the accuracy of the arguments drawn from them. For Greece, the first three decades of the 20th century were a long period of tur- moil and change. Greek Macedonia at the end of the 1920s presented a totally different picture to that of the immediate post-Liberation period, just after the Balkan Wars. This was due on the one hand to the profound economic and social changes that followed its incorporation into Greece and on the other to the continual and extensive population shifts that marked that period. As has been noted, no fewer than 17 major population movements took place in Macedonia between 1913 and 1925.2 Of these, the most sig- nificant were the Greek-Bulgarian and the Greek-Turkish exchanges of population under the terms, respectively, of the 1919 Treaty of Neuilly and the 1923 Lausanne Convention.

  • Royal Power, Law and Justice in Ancient Macedonia Joseph Roisman
    Royal Power, Law and Justice in Ancient Macedonia Joseph Roisman In his speech On the Crown Demosthenes often lionizes himself by suggesting that his actions and policy required him to overcome insurmountable obstacles. Thus he contrasts Athens’ weakness around 346 B.C.E. with Macedonia’s strength, and Philip’s II unlimited power with the more constrained and cumbersome decision-making process at home, before asserting that in spite of these difficulties he succeeded in forging later a large Greek coalition to confront Philip in the battle of Chaeronea (Dem.18.234–37). [F]irst, he (Philip) ruled in his own person as full sovereign over subservient people, which is the most important factor of all in waging war . he was flush with money, and he did whatever he wished. He did not announce his intentions in official decrees, did not deliberate in public, was not hauled into the courts by sycophants, was not prosecuted for moving illegal proposals, was not accountable to anyone. In short, he was ruler, commander, in control of everything.1 For his depiction of Philip’s authority Demosthenes looks less to Macedonia than to Athens, because what makes the king powerful in his speech is his freedom from democratic checks. Nevertheless, his observations on the Macedonian royal power is more informative and helpful than Aristotle’s references to it in his Politics, though modern historians tend to privilege the philosopher for what he says or even does not say on the subject. Aristotle’s seldom mentions Macedonian kings, and when he does it is for limited, exemplary purposes, lumping them with other kings who came to power through benefaction and public service, or who were assassinated by men they had insulted.2 Moreover, according to Aristotle, the extreme of tyranny is distinguished from ideal kingship (pambasilea) by the fact that tyranny is a government that is not called to account.
