  • Educating the Whole Person? the Case of Athens College, 1940-1990
    Educating the whole person? The case of Athens College, 1940-1990 Polyanthi Giannakopoulou-Tsigkou Institute of Education, University of London A thesis submitted for the Degree of EdD September 2012 Abstract This thesis is a historical study of the growth and development of Athens College, a primary/secondary educational institution in Greece, during the period 1940-1990. Athens College, a private, non-profit institution, was founded in 1925 as a boys' school aiming to offer education for the whole person. The research explores critically the ways in which historical, political, socio-economic and cultural factors affected the evolution of Athens College during the period 1940-1990 and its impact on students' further studies and careers. This case study seeks to unfold aspects of education in a Greek school, and reach a better understanding of education and factors that affect it and interact with it. A mixed methods approach is used: document analysis, interviews with Athens College alumni and former teachers, analysis of student records providing data related to students' achievements, their family socio-economic 'origins' and their post-Athens College 'destinations'. The study focuses in particular on the learners at the School, and the kinds of learning that took place within this institution over half a century. Athens College, although under the control of a centralised educational system, has resisted the weaknesses of Greek schooling. Seeking to establish educational ideals associated with education of the whole person, excellence, meritocracy and equality of opportunity and embracing progressive curricula and pedagogies, it has been successful in taking its students towards university studies and careers.

  • A Radical Greek Evolution Within the Eurozone
    A radical Greek evolution within the eurozone For John Milios, seen as the most hardline of Alexis Tsipras’s advisers, the country’s humanitarian crisis is the top priority John Milios’s phone rings a lot these days. There are hedge funds and financial institutions and investors, all curious to know what the German-trained professor thinks. As chief economist of Syriza, the far-left party that has sent markets into a tailspin as it edges ever closer to power in Greece, the academic has had a prominent role in devising the group’s financial manifesto. He is the first to concede the programme is radical. “I am a Marxist,” he says. “The majority [in Syriza] are.” Sipping green tea in his favourite Athens cafe, he explains: “Alternative approaches to the economy and society have been excluded by the dominant narrative of neoliberalism.” Milios, who attended Athens College, the country’s most prestigious private school – graduating in the same class as the former prime minister George Papandreou –is part of an eclectic group of experts advising Syriza’s leader, Alexis Tsipras, on the economy. Others include the Oxford-educated Euclid Tsakalotos, the political economist and shipping family heir Giorgos Stathakis, the leftwing veteran Giannis Dragasakis and the Texas-based academic Yanis Varoufakis. If the Athenian parliament fails to elect a new head of state by 29 December, the Greek constitution demands that snap polls are called. The ruling coalition’s narrow majority has made it unlikely that the government’s candidate, Stavros Dimas, will get the presidency. With the radicals in the ascent, Milios and his fellow Marxists are likely to take the reins of the EU’s weakest economy.

  • The Establishment and Development of the Metaxas Dictatorship in the Context of Fascism and Nazism, 1936–41
    23tmp09a.qxd 04/04/2002 14:43 Page 143 9 The Establishment and Development of the Metaxas Dictatorship in the Context of Fascism and Nazism, 193641 MOGENS PELT In October 1935, Italy launched a fully-fledged attack on Abyssinia, threatening Britains position in Egypt and the supremacy of the Royal Navy in the eastern Mediterranean. Three years later, in 1938, Germany established her dominance over Central Europe in a series of short-of-war operations, incorporating Austria and the Sudetenland into the Reich by Anschluss and the Munich agreement. The dismemberment of Czechoslovakia dealt a fatal blow to the French security system in south-eastern Europe, la petite entente with Prague serving as its regional power centre. While the credibility of France as a great power almost completely eroded overnight, Vienna and Prague suddenly provided ready-made platforms to an invigorated and resurgent Germany to project her power into south- eastern Europe, and to rearrange that area in line with Berlins plans for a new European Order. This, in turn, gave a boost to national vindication in the revisionist states, Bulgaria and Hungary, while it generated shock waves of national insecurity and internal instability in the status quo states, Greece, Romania and Yugoslavia. On 10 October 1935, only a week after the beginning of Mussolinis African enterprise, a military coup détat in Greece reinstated the monarchy, which had been abolished in the wake of the First World War, and some ten months later, on 4 August 1936, King George II established what was meant to be a permanent dictatorship under the leadership of General Ioannis Metaxas, a prominent royalist.

Its contribution to the historiography of the period stems from the fact that it constitutes the first academic study of the third largest resistance organisation in Greece, the 5/42 regiment of evzones. The study of this national resistance organisation can thus extend our knowledge of the Greek resistance effort, the political relations between the main resistance groups, the conditions that led to the civil war and the domestic relevance of British policies.

    Question for written answer E-004628/2015 to the Commission Rule 130 Eleftherios Synadinos (NI) Subject: State and European aid for foundations established by former Greek Prime Ministers According to recent articles,1 2 3 six foundations established by former Greek Prime Ministers, namely Eleftherios Venizelos, Georgios Papandreou, Konstantinos Karamanlis, Andreas Papandreou, Konstantinos Mitsotakis and Kostas Simitis, are currently operating in Greece. These foundations have always enjoyed absurd privileges totally out of keeping with their (non- existent) work, especially as the founders’ progeny sit on their boards of directors. One of those privileges is that they are ‘administratively and financially independent’, meaning that they can be paid government grants but are not obliged to render account or report financial data to the Greek Government. They also enjoy what can only be described as insulting tax immunity under an unprecedented and unfair system of tax relief at the Greek people’s expense. Finally, the Greek State has handed over property and land to these foundations absolutely free of charge under a completely non-transparent system. In view of the above, and given that these foundations are entitled to participate in Community programmes funded by the EU (80 %) and from national resources (20 %), will the Commission say: – whether it intends to request official figures on the amount and method of funding of these foundations and financial statements for reasons of transparency and to inform the public? 1 http://www.newsbomb.gr/ellada/apokalypseis/story/277964/lefta-gia-to-lao-haristikan-se-idrymata-proin 2 http://www.newsbomb.gr/ellada/apokalypseis/story/277645/harizoyn-ellada-kai-se-pethamenoys- prothypoyrgoys 3 http://elevengr.blogspot.be/2013/09/blog-post_9.html 1055315.EN PE 553.776 .
