  • Phoenicians in the Mediterranean: Diversified Forms of Contact Fenícios Pelo Mediterrâneo: Formas De Contato Diversificadas
    PHOENICIANS IN THE MEDITERRANEAN: DIVERSIFIED FORMS OF CONTACT FENÍCIOS PELO MEDITERRÂNEO: FORMAS DE CONTATO DIVERSIFICADAS Maria Cristina Nicolau Kormikiari Vol. XV | n°29 | 2018 | ISSN 2316 8412 Phoenicians in the Mediterranean: diversified forms of contact1 Maria Cristina Nicolau Kormikiari2 Abstract: In this article we approach the most recent developments on the research regarding the Phoenicians, a people who inhabited the coastal plains of eastern Mediterranean. We also approach the developments regarding their territorial expansion, especially towards the very opposite region in relation to their homeland: the western shores of the Mediterranean. We also discuss the pertinence of the use of such concepts as pre‐colonization and colonization and present the position of some archaeologists drawn out of the Post‐Colonial Theories. Keywords: Phoenicians, navigation, contact, Mediterranean. Resumo: Neste artigo abordamos as mais recentes sistematizações acerca dos fenícios, povo que habitouhabitando a costa oriental da Bacia do Mediterrâneo, e acerca de seus processos de expansão territorial, notadamente nas regiões central e ocidental desta mesma bacia. Discutimos a pertinência do uso de conceitos como pré‐colonização e colonização e os questionamentos que alguns arqueólogos têm feito a estes, com base nas Teorias Pós‐Coloniais. Palavras‐chave: Fenícios, navegação, contato, Mediterrâneo. The Phoenicians, who are still so mysterious to us, despite the numerous advances made by academic research, have since the beginning of the Iron Age in the Eastern Mediterranean (11th century BC) initiated a sophisticated process of territorial expansion, sailing the Mediterranean waters and reaching the land to the north and south of this basin, and beyond it, Atlantic waters, on holdings in search of raw materials for the making of products to be resold on eastern lands.

Tele-education failed to replace face-to-face education due to the lack of symmetrical policy, connectivity, infrastructure, digitalized educational materials and digital competences. Was this issue predictable and, hence, the stakeholders’ mission failed? Our qualitative research aims at analyzing, in depth, these digitalization asymmetries, with a sample formed of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) specialists working for/with Romanian 1–4 International Standard Classification of Education (ISCED) schools. The collected primary data were processed with Atlas.ti 8. The results emphasize major key areas to be addressed with future public symmetrical policy and change management strategies: equal access to infrastructure, as well as development of compulsory and complementary digital skills (for teachers and students). The necessity to support school management in accessing funding is also required to enhance digitalization.
