Biological Agriculture in Greece: Constraints and Opportunities for Development
BIOLOGICAL AGRICULTURE IN GREECE: CONSTRAINTS AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR DEVELOPMENT By Leonidas Louloudis Department of Agricultural Economics and Development Agricultural University of Athens Paper presented to the Seminar: “The Common Agricultural Policy and the Environmental Challenge – New Tasks for the Public Administrations? European Institute of Public Administration (EIPA) Maastricht (NL), 145-15 May 2001 2 DRAFT PAPER (not to be quoted) BIOLOGICAL AGRICULTURE IN GREECE: CONSTRAINTS AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR DEVELOPMENT Leonidas Louloudis Department of Agricultural Economics and Development Agricultural University of Athens Introduction Organic agriculture or biological agriculture, as it is called in Greece, does not account to more than 0.63% of the national agricultural output. But since the last food crisis (winter 2000) caused by the sudden re-appearance of the "mad-cow disease" in Europe, it has gained a new developmental momentum. The Greek press, although no incident of the Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy has been recorded so far within the national borders, covered this last food crisis extensively and devoted much space on the risks to human health, which were considered almost innate to the conventional agro-food system, and to the associated consumption and dietary patterns. In this historical conjuncture, biological agriculture entered the public debate through the mass media as the most immediate and radical solution to the industrial system of food production, which had lost its reliability almost entirely. The Ministry of Agriculture was not prepared to deal with such a severe crisis in the meat sector and thus to apply competently the measures against BSE, agreed upon at EU level. Thus it rushed to support that biological agriculture, and more specifically biological stockbreeding, is the only solution that guarantees a safe and healthy way out of the problem. -
Assessment of Maternal Effects and Genetic Variability in Resistance to Verticillium Dahliae in Olive Progenies

López-Escudero, Ana Gordon Bermúdez-Coronel and Concepción Muñoz Díez * Excellence Unit ‘María de Maeztu’ 2020-23, Department of Agronomy, ETSIAM, University of Córdoba, 14071 Córdoba, Spain; [email protected] (P.V.C.); [email protected] (C.T.R.); [email protected] (D.B.N.); [email protected] (F.J.L.-E.); [email protected] (A.G.B.-C.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The use of genetic resistance is likely the most efficient, economically convenient and environmentally friendly control method for plant diseases, as well as a fundamental piece in an integrated management strategy. This is particularly important for woody crops affected by diseases in which mainly horizontal resistance mechanisms are operative, such as Verticillium wilt, caused by Verticillium dahliae. In this study, we analyzed the variability in resistance to Verticillium wilt of olive trees in progenies from five crosses: ‘Picual’ × ‘Frantoio’, ‘Arbosana’ × ‘Koroneiki’, ‘Sikitita’ × Citation: Valverde Caballero, P.; ‘Arbosana’, ‘Arbosana’ × ‘Frantoio’ and ‘Arbosana’ × ‘Arbequina’ and their respective reciprocal Trapero Ramírez, C.; Barranco crosses. Additionally, seedlings of ‘Picual’ and ‘Frantoio’ in open pollination were used as controls. Navero, D.; López-Escudero, F.J.; In October 2016 and 2018, the fruits were harvested, and seeds germinated. Six-week-old seedlings Gordon Bermúdez-Coronel, A.; Díez, were inoculated by dipping their bare roots in a conidial suspension of V. dahliae, and disease progress C.M. Assessment of Maternal Effects in terms of symptom severity and mortality was evaluated weekly. -
Archaic Eretria
ARCHAIC ERETRIA This book presents for the first time a history of Eretria during the Archaic Era, the city’s most notable period of political importance. Keith Walker examines all the major elements of the city’s success. One of the key factors explored is Eretria’s role as a pioneer coloniser in both the Levant and the West— its early Aegean ‘island empire’ anticipates that of Athens by more than a century, and Eretrian shipping and trade was similarly widespread. We are shown how the strength of the navy conferred thalassocratic status on the city between 506 and 490 BC, and that the importance of its rowers (Eretria means ‘the rowing city’) probably explains the appearance of its democratic constitution. Walker dates this to the last decade of the sixth century; given the presence of Athenian political exiles there, this may well have provided a model for the later reforms of Kleisthenes in Athens. Eretria’s major, indeed dominant, role in the events of central Greece in the last half of the sixth century, and in the events of the Ionian Revolt to 490, is clearly demonstrated, and the tyranny of Diagoras (c. 538–509), perhaps the golden age of the city, is fully examined. Full documentation of literary, epigraphic and archaeological sources (most of which have previously been inaccessible to an English-speaking audience) is provided, creating a fascinating history and a valuable resource for the Greek historian. Keith Walker is a Research Associate in the Department of Classics, History and Religion at the University of New England, Armidale, Australia. -

Arrive at the Corinth Canal for a brief stop and then continue on to the Acropolis of Corinth. Acro-corinth is the citadel of Corinth. It is situated to the southwest of the ancient city and rises to an elevation of 1883 ft. [574 m.]. Today it is surrounded by walls that are about 1.85 mi. [3 km.] long. The foundations of the fortifications are ancient—going back to the Hellenistic Period. The current walls were built and rebuilt by the Byzantines, Franks, Venetians, and Ottoman Turks. Climb up and visit the fortress. Then proceed to the Ancient city of Corinth. It was to this megalopolis where the apostle Paul came and worked, established a thriving church, subsequently sending two of his epistles now part of the New Testament. Here, we see all of the sites associated with his ministry: the Agora, the Temple of Apollo, the Roman Odeon, the Bema and Gallio’s Seat. The small local archaeological museum here is an absolute must! In Romans 16:23 Paul mentions his friend Erastus and • • we will see an inscription to him at the site. In the afternoon we will drive to GREECE CRETE TURKEY Nafplion for check-in at hotel followed by dinner and overnight. (B,D) MAY 28 - JUNE 22, 2021 June 1 Tue EPIDAURAUS - MYCENAE - NAFPLION Morning visit to Mycenae where we see the remains of the prehistoric citadel Parthenon, fortified with the Cyclopean Walls, the Lionesses’ Gate, the remains of the Athens Mycenaean Palace and the Tomb of King Agamemnon in which we will actually enter. -

Rethinking Athenian Democracy.Pdf
Rethinking Athenian Democracy A dissertation presented by Daniela Louise Cammack to The Department of Government in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the subject of Political Science Harvard University Cambridge, Massachusetts January 2013 © 2013 Daniela Cammack All rights reserved. Professor Richard Tuck Daniela Cammack Abstract Conventional accounts of classical Athenian democracy represent the assembly as the primary democratic institution in the Athenian political system. This looks reasonable in the light of modern democracy, which has typically developed through the democratization of legislative assemblies. Yet it conflicts with the evidence at our disposal. Our ancient sources suggest that the most significant and distinctively democratic institution in Athens was the courts, where decisions were made by large panels of randomly selected ordinary citizens with no possibility of appeal. This dissertation reinterprets Athenian democracy as “dikastic democracy” (from the Greek dikastēs, “judge”), defined as a mode of government in which ordinary citizens rule principally through their control of the administration of justice. It begins by casting doubt on two major planks in the modern interpretation of Athenian democracy: first, that it rested on a conception of the “wisdom of the multitude” akin to that advanced by epistemic democrats today, and second that it was “deliberative,” meaning that mass discussion of political matters played a defining role. The first plank rests largely on an argument made by Aristotle in support of mass political participation, which I show has been comprehensively misunderstood. The second rests on the interpretation of the verb “bouleuomai” as indicating speech, but I suggest that it meant internal reflection in both the courts and the assembly. -
