These researchers, who come from all branches of the economic and social sciences, the huma- nities and law, implement an integrated, multidisciplinary and interna- tionally comparative research program that focuses on Europe’s migra- tion and integration challenges. Within the program, existing research is integrated and new re- search lines are developed that involve issues crucial to European-level policy-making and provide a theory-based design to implement new re- search. The publication program of IMISCOE is based on five distinct publication profiles, designed to make its research and results available to scien- tists, policymakers and the public at large. High-quality manuscripts written by IMISCOE members, or in cooperation with IMISCOE members, are published in these five series. An Editorial Committee coordinates the review process of the manuscripts. The five series are: 1. Joint Studies 2. Research 3. Dissertations 4. Reports 5. Textbooks More information on the network can be found at: www.imiscoe.org IMISCOE Dissertations include dissertations of IMISCOE members. There are more than 100 Ph.D. candidates in the various affiliated institu- tions working on doctoral research within the IMISCOE framework.

This book involves many stages of my own ‘migrant- hood’ and an evolving process that explores issues that have been both fascinating and troubling over the years but always of great impor- tance. This manuscript is the product of over a decade’s challenging work, and I have been extremely fortunate that many friends and col- leagues shared my agonies, stimulated my thinking, inspired my writ- ing and above all provided continuous support and generous assis- tance. This is a group of people from several countries whose contribu- tions to this book have been fundamental. But first and foremost to my parents and brother, migrants them- selves, return migrants of different generations but similar reasons, I am grateful for all your emotional support and love. Thank you for be- lieving in me, respecting and tolerating my dreams, decisions and life choices and always having to pay the price of missing me. I know I wasn’t there where you were most of the time but you were always with me. From the very beginning of my research, the unconditional help, friendship, love, patience, support and guidance of Dr. D. Mentzenio- tis, which constantly increased as my fears and anxieties reached ‘dan- gerously’ high peaks, are clearly more than any utopian idealised Pla- tonic perspective could capture but nonetheless coming from an in- credible philosopher and person. Thank you for generously sharing your genius with me, abundantly providing honesty, a wealth of re- search material, time and timeless wisdom. I will never be the same since I met you…! I am also greatly indebted to the numerous people who have accom- panied and guided me throughout my research journey. My supervisor at the University of Sussex, Professor Russell King, who guided my doctoral research so expertly; I owe my warmest gratitude for his valu- able feedback, comments and suggestions that have shaped my re- search and study and made it possible to develop into a complete the- 10 NARRATIVES OF PLACE, CULTURE AND IDENTITY sis. His constant presence – at the University and at a distance – his patience, support, stimulating contributions and his trust in me went beyond anything I could have possibly wished for. Through his work he introduced me to the richness of geography and migration studies and instilled in me an appreciation for interdisciplinary perspectives. I will always be inspired by his example of engagement with the subject matter, the breadth of his knowledge and scholarship, the quality of his research and above all his modesty and integrity. I shall forever be in- debted to him. I am grateful to Professor Richard Black and the academic commit- tee for selecting me and offering me a prestigious Marie Curie Re- search Fellowship in Migration Studies as part of the Migration and Asylum Research Training Initiative of the Sussex Centre for Migration Research. Professor Black’s support has been instrumental and highly appreciated. My fellowship at the University of Sussex was an excep- tional academic experience. Many colleagues and fellow researchers generously offered their time and friendship. The list is long and I am genuinely grateful to all. Special thanks go to Jenny Money and Clare Rogers who always saved the day, no matter how challenging it was! To Nayla Mourkabel and Antigoni Papanikolaou, thanks for their support, love, understanding, patience, generous hospitality and making the friendship last beyond Brighton.

  • Panel 3 CIVIL SOCIETY-ORGANISATIONS
    Greek Ethical Identities in Continuity and Change: A Social Networks Approach of Applied Philotimo in Economo-scape of Local Communities; the Case of Cooperative Banking Theodoros A. Katerinakis, MSc, PhD Candidate Tel: +215 895 6143, e-mail: [email protected] Department of Culture & Communication, Drexel University, 3141 Chestnut St., Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA Μail Address: 106A North 21st St., Philadelphia, PA 19103, USA Abstract: The core value of Greek philotimo derives from the root concept of kalokagathia and is manifested in the institutional and transactional ethos of Cooperative Banks in Greece. A major case study of Cooperative Bank of Chania (CBC) is presented to introducing the analytical approach of social network analysis, via UCINET, to represent membership ties and managerial ties in the second largest Greek cooperative bank. The concept of ethics in doing business is extended in a deliberate tendency to build transactional networks that enforce pre-existing social networks and stay tuned with sustainable local economies, a notion consistent with locality in multicultural Europe. Cooperative banking operates in intersection of emotional capitalism and social enterprise, as a cultural process through which new interactional- emotional scripts of economic relationships are illustrated by the cultural frames of cooperation or team work. The case of CBC of Chania shows how non-commercial ties of buyers- sellers matter in “major purchases” and insulate from crisis. Most such transactions take place among kin, friends, or acquaintances that substitute impersonal markets, especially when decisions involve high uncertainty; so common values like philotimo promote connectedness and builds trust that prevails in dealing with risk in order to make financial decisions, sustain and support them.

  • National Origin (Mis)Identification Among Latinos in the 2000 Census: the Growth of the “Other Hispanic Or Latino” Category
    National Origin (Mis)Identification Among Latinos in the 2000 Census: The Growth of the “Other Hispanic or Latino” Category. Matt A. Barreto University of California, Irvine Harvard Journal of Hispanic Policy Volume 15, June 2003 Abstract. The 2000 Census revealed unprecedented population growth among Latinos in the United States with the total Latino population growing to over 35 million. However, the census also revealed its inability to accurately count and distinguish between countries of ancestry among the Latino population. Over fifteen percent of all Latinos living in the United States indicated “other Hispanic or Latino” when asked for specific country of origin for their family heritage. This misclassification has lead many groups of Latinos to question the validity and accuracy of the census instrument, and has frustrated others, expecting to find big gains in their population. Using data from the Census 2000 Summary File 1 (SF1) I model identification as “other” Latino at the county level. Not surprising, I find that Dominicans, Colombians, Salvadorans, and Guatemalans were among the top nationalities miscounted by the 2000 census. In sum, nearly 2 million Central and South Americans were misidentified by the census putting their numbers and clout in question. Through OLS regression analysis I can identify which groups are most misrepresented and what regional variations exist. This research holds great promise not just for advocacy groups, eager to see a more accurate count of their population, but also for policy makers responsible

The anchorage is excellent, vessels of the largest size being able to tie so near shore as to land goods without lightering. The back country, including the Napa and Sonoma Valleys, is one of the finest agriculture districts in California. Notwithstanding these advantages, Benicia must always remain inferior in commercial advantages, both to San Francisco and Sacramento City.”1 So wrote Bayard Taylor in 1850, less than three years after Benicia’s founding, and another three years before the city would—at least briefly—serve as the capital of California. In the century that followed, Taylor’s assessment was echoed by many authors—that although Benicia had all the ingredients for a great metropolis, it was destined to remain in the shadow of others. Yet these assessments only tell a half truth. While Benicia never became the great commercial center envisioned by its founders, its role in Northern California history is nevertheless one that far outstrips the scale of its geography or the number of its citizens. Benicia gave rise to the first large industrial works in California, hosted the largest train ferries ever constructed, and housed the West Coast’s primary ordnance facility for over 100 years.
