Printed in Croatia ISSN 1331-5609; UDC: 33+65 Urban Dipoles in Greece: Economic Development Opportunities for Larissa-Volos Dipole in Thessaly Region Theodore Metaxas* Abstract: The article attempts to illustrate the significance of the existence of co-operation and in tandem development of an urban dipole, as well as the impact of such a dipole development on each of the two cities and on the greater region they belong. For this reason, the article focuses on a specific case of two medium size cities in Greece, Larissa and Volos, which activate in the same region by taking development actions complementary to one another. The aim of the article is to define the prospects for economic development of this dipole and examine its dynamic in relation to other cities in Greece, by using original data derived by a recent empirical research conducted among foreign firms of the region which have established in the dipole area the last 15 years. Keywords: urban dipoles, economic development, Greece JEL Classification: R11, R12, R13 Introduction Cities are the most dynamic centres of economic transformations in a global level (Harris 1997). The main argument arises through the analysis of the international practice is that regional competitiveness / attractiveness presupposes the economic development and vigorousness of the regions main cities (Cheshire and Gordon 1998; Cuadrado-Roura and Rubalcaba- Bermejo, 1998; Cuadrado-Roura, 2001). This conclusion is harmonized with the basic principles for the competition between cities, as they referred in the European Spatial Development Perspective (ESDP, 1999).

  • Women in Comedy
    WOMEN IN COMEDY BACKGROUND: MAKERS: Women In Comedy tracks the rise of women in the world of comedy, from the “dangerous” comedy of 70s sitcoms like Norman Lear’s Maude to the groundbreaking women of the 1980s American comedy club boom and building to today’s multifaceted landscape. Today, movies like Bridesmaids break box office records and the women of Saturday Night Live are often more famous than their male counterparts, but it didn’t start out that way. Early breakout female comics had to keep their jokes within the safe context of marriage, motherhood, and a man’s world. But they still found a way to be subversive. As Joan Rivers puts it, “I was furious about having to get married… It all comes out on stage. So that’s what I do onstage. I really tell them the truth.” Soon comedy became a vehicle for women to take on some of the most sensitive and controversial issues of the day. On television in the 1960s, entertainers like Carol Burnett and Mary Tyler Moore illuminated the core issues of feminism with humor that was both sly and truthful. But it took a powerful male producer to bring the most provocative feminist characters onto the screen. Maude, who Lear introduced to audiences in 1971, was a feminist firebrand on her fourth husband, strong and independent with a razor sharp wit. “When Maude was on the air,” Lear tells us, “I used to get letters from the First Lady, Betty Ford…. And she always signed every letter ‘Maude’s #1 fan’.” When Maude chose to have an abortion at 47, religious groups protested, but the episode was watched by 65 million Americans.
