  • Analysis of the Cyprus Referendum on the Annan Plan* Theodore Chadjipadelis and Ioannis Andreadis† Department of Political Sciences Aristotle University Thessaloniki
    Analysis of the Cyprus referendum on the Annan plan* Theodore Chadjipadelis and Ioannis Andreadis† Department of Political Sciences Aristotle University Thessaloniki Abstract One of the most important worldwide political issues in 2004 has emerged at 24 April 2004. Cypriots have expressed their opinion about the well-known Annan plan on the reunification of Cyprus in two simultaneous referenda. In this paper we analyse how the Greek Cypriots voted in the referendum. Firstly, we present the Cypriots' attitudes towards the Annan plan and the general political scene. For many Greek Cypriots the Annan plan had a lot of disadvantages and most of the Greek Cypriot political parties were against the plan. Some Greek Cypriot political leaders also influenced the Greek Cypriot vote by strongly opposing the plan. Our analysis shows that Greek Cypriots have not voted uniformly on the Annan Plan. Their vote is strongly depended on their political ideas and theses. For instance, more than 90% of the Cyprus President supporters voted against the Annan Plan. On the other hand, the percentage of the voters who supported other candidates for the 2003 presidential elections and were against the Annan plan is lower. Another important factor for the vote seems to be the voters’ geographical location. Spatial differences seem to be very important in Cyprus referendum. For instance, a comparison between Paphos and Famagusta Districts provides enough evidence for the importance of spatial factors. Spatial differences in the Cyprus referendum results are explored using ecological inference techniques. In less than two months time, after the referendum, Cypriots voted for their first time to elect six European Parliament members.

  • Fintech and Consumer Decision-Making in the Information Age
    FinTech and Consumer Decision-Making in the Information Age Bruce Carlin∗ Arna Olafssony Michaela Pagelz November 2020 Abstract We exploit the release of a mobile application for a financial aggregation plat- form to analyze how Financial Technology (FinTech) adoption changes consumer financial decision making. Our sample consists of individuals that had been using the platform via a desktop computer long before the mobile app was released. The app reduced the cost of accessing personal financial information, and this was re- sponsible for a significant drop in the use of expensive consumer credit and late payment fees. The leading explanation for our results appears to be mistake avoid- ance, which is supported by a significant reduction in non-sufficient funds (NSF) charges after the app was released.

  • Euro-Mediterranean Peacebuilding: the Exit from the Cypriot-Greco-Turkish Labyrinth
    EURO-MEDITERRANEAN PEACEBUILDING: THE EXIT FROM THE CYPRIOT-GRECO-TURKISH LABYRINTH COSTAS MELAKOPIDES Introduction Two events of momentous significance for Cyprus occurred within a week in April 2003. Beyond multifarious domestic and regional implications, they entail a rare opportunity for the EU to prove its own peacemaking and peacebuilding role in the world. First, the Republic of Cyprus signed the Union's Treaty of Accession on April 16.1 On 23 April, Turkish Cypriot leader Rauf Denktash announced the (controlled and partial) lifting of restrictions to the free movement to and from the occupied territory of Cyprus. The latter event's developing potential for good or ill is indeterminate to date. Uninitiated non-Cypriots called it "opening of borders", revealing thereby confusion on the nature of the Cyprus puzzle. Many Greek Cypriots exploited the chance to visit for the first time their occupied homes and properties, abandoned since the 1974 Turkish invasion. As for the Turkish Cypriots, they rushed to contradict Denktash’s perennial claim on the alleged inter- communal Cypriot hostility, while he was "demanding" anew the recognition of his secessionist regime ("TRNC"), although such recognition has been denied by the world since the November 1983 UDI. The probable causes and reasons of Denktash’s strategy and tactics can be surmised. But their socio-political, psychological, politico- cultural and diplomatic implications cannot be deciphered independently of the labyrinthine processes at work in, around, and about Cyprus. As I shall argue, Denktash’s brilliant (if machiavellian) manoeuvre -which, in spite of himself,2 could stand 1 Until then, the Republic's accession had confronted a series of real and imagined obstacles, including the notorious Annan Plan (see below).

Journalists in Syria have been killed by snipers, accused of spying, and kidnapped by gunmen, and with the threats growing, many say the conflict is now too dangerous to cover. Media watchdog Reporters Without Borders (RSF) says at least 25 professional journalists and 70 citizen journalists have been killed in the conflict.

Article 11 is a lifeline for the independent press in Europe. It would give press publishers and news agencies ownership of their work online at a time when online platforms exploit this work for free, “monetizing” it to generate advertising revenues in Silicon Valley. Without the right that Article 11 would enshrine, Europe’s journalists would continue to effectively work for free for the tech giants: out of sight, out of mind and out of pocket.

  • Patrice Letulle Named Business Wire's Director, Southern Europe
    Published on Business Wire Newsroom (https://newsroom.businesswire.com) on 1/19/17 8:08 am EST Patrice LeTulle Named Business Wire’s Director, Southern Europe Release Date: Thursday, January 19, 2017 8:08 am EST Terms: Company Personnel Dateline City: PARIS PARIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Seeking to replicate his success in France, Business Wire today named Patrice LeTulle director, Southern Europe, expanding his sales portfolio to include Italy, Spain, French and Italian-speaking Switzerland, Portugal, Greece, Turkey, and Cyprus. In his new role, LeTulle will provide strategic guidance, coupled with hands-on leadership, to identify new business opportunities, and to expand Business Wire’s profile among key audiences. The region is home to many multinational companies and robust start-ups, who share a need to reach consumer markets and potential investors throughout Europe, and abroad. “Our plan is to introduce Business Wire’s global media and investor services to a region that has historically been underserved by the industry,” said LeTulle. “The Paris office has emerged as one of Business Wire’s most successful international offices. We are eager to mirror our winning approach in neighboring markets, all of which have enormous potential. An educational campaign will focus on Business Wire’s overall value proposition, and the important roles we play in the newsgathering process, and the capital markets.” LeTulle’s strategic initiatives will be supported by Business Wire’s unmatched regional distribution network, which includes Agence France-Presse, ANSA (Italy), Athens News Agency (Greece), Anadolu Agency (Turkey), and Cyprus News Agency, among other prestigious partners. LeTulle joined Business Wire in 2008 as an account executive in the Paris office, and was promoted to regional manager in 2013.
