    Erasmus University Rotterdam MSc in Maritime Economics and Logistics 2019/2020 A qualitative study of the competitiveness of the port of Thessaloniki By Tsioukanaras Paraskevas Copyright Tsioukanaras Paraskevas 1 Acknowledgements I would like to express my deepest appreciation and love to my parents and my brother who did not only financed my studies but underpinned me mentally throughout the whole year and inspired me to keep on trying on pursuing a career in the maritime industry. I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to my supervisor, professor Elvira Haezendonck who entrusted me to carry out this study and facilitated me in the process of making it. I would also like to thank the MEL office and the professors of the whole program for their help during my studies. I would like to acknowledge the help of many of my fellow students with whom we spent this year and worked hard during all the academical year. Special thanks to Ioanna Christodoulou, Prithvin Leonard, Elisabeth Mathisen, Nikolas Pantagias and Alex Karalis should be attributed. Last but not least, i am extremely grateful to all the experts who participated in my study by giving out in-person interviews and contributing substantially to the current qualitative research. 2 Abstract Nowadays ports are facing a fast-changing environment which imposes many alterations to their functions. As ports are trying to adopt to these circumstances, they search for ways that can enhance their competitiveness so as to get ahead of competition. The current paper puts the second biggest port of Greece, namely the port of Thessaloniki, under scope and efforts to find out how its competitiveness can increase.

The volume is devoted to the conceptualisation and analysis of maritime history within the framework of complexity theory on various levels: the selection, construction, utilisation, maintenance or abandonment of a harbour site depended on the interactions of a multiplicity of actors (population on-site and in the hinterland; local, regional and central authorities; merchants and sailors, etc.) against the background of an equally complex interplay between society and environment (natural conditions on land and on sea and their dynamics).

  • Prayer to Jesus in the Canonical and in the Apocryphal Acts of the Apostles
    Ephemerides Theologicae Lovanienses 89/1 (2013) 49-71. doi: 10.2143/ETL.89.1.2985322 © 2013 by Ephemerides Theologicae Lovanienses. All rights reserved. Prayer to Jesus in the Canonical and in the Apocryphal Acts of the Apostles Boris PASCHKE Evangelische Theologische Faculteit, Leuven (ETF) Research Foundation – Flanders (FWO) INTRODUCTION The five major Apocryphal Acts of the Apostles (AAA), i.e., those of Andrew (AA), John (AJ), Paul (APaul), Peter (APeter), and Thomas (ATh)1, stem from the second and third centuries C.E.2 and contain about one-hundred prayers, i.e., second-person addresses to God3. With regard to the invocationes of these prayers, Hugh A.G. Houghton states, “Most prayers are addressed directly to Jesus”4. In contrast to the AAA, the canonical New Testament hardly contains prayers to Jesus. Such prayers are only found in Acts 7,59-60 (kúrie ˆIjsoÕ)5; Rev 22,20 (ˆAmßn, ∂rxou kúrie ˆIjsoÕ); and perhaps 1 Cor 16,22 (maranatha)6. 1.

  • The Importance of Inspired Scripture…Sanctified and Approved by God
    The Importance of Inspired Scripture…Sanctified and Approved by God My Critique of Extra-Biblical Writings Focus: Apocrypha By Gerald E. Cumby The Bible is an invaluable collection of “sacred, credible, factual and infallible” ancient texts, written, assembled (fitted and joined together) over several hundreds of years by numerous authors. These texts were written to particular people living at a definite time and place who shared common experiences and knowledge. However, the Bible is also written that men might: “..believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing (they) may have life in His name” (John 20:31), Come to know the Savior in a personal way…and be willing to share the “good news” and “…go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I (Jesus) have commanded you…” (Matthew 28:19-20a), Continue to “study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that does not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth” (2 Timothy, 2:15) after the initial salvation experience. It is relevant for the proper understanding of the Word of God, however, to believe that “all Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: that the man of God may be perfect, ‘thoroughly’ furnished unto all good works” (2 Timothy 3:16-17). The Bible, therefore, is inspired, approved, and “determined” by God. Man has “discovered”1 these truths and placed it in written form (the canon) to provide man with the means to know the truth and in which to live according to God’s principles.

It was led by Professor E. Earle Ellis, who later agreed to serve as my dissertation supervisor. Although I had read through Paul's letters many times, I had never noticed what still strikes me as an astounding fact. Paul, who at one time gloried in his Jewish heritage, applied to his "Lord," Jesus Christ, sacred scripture originally reserved for Yahweh (¡"HIT), the unspeakable name of God.

  • Shared Sacred Sites in the Balkans and the Mediterranean
    Thessaloniki, 6 September 2017 Press Release Shared Sacred Sites in the Balkans and the Mediterranean SATURDAY 23.09.2017, opening The exhibition will be inaugurated by the Mayor of Thessaloniki, Yiannis Boutaris: 20:00 / Macedonian Museum of Contemporary Art 22:00 / Yeni Camii – Concert of Savina Yannatou SUNDAY 24.09.2017 International Workshop 09.30‐19.00 / Thessaloniki Museum of Photography TUESDAY 26.09.2017 20.00 / Yeni Camii, Performance by Marios Chatziprokopiou: “In a corner of the corridor”: a performative lecture on lament and love. The three‐part exhibition is being organized by the Macedonian Museum of Contemporary Art and the Thessaloniki Museum of Photography, in collaboration with the City of Thessaloniki. Venues Macedonian Museum of Contemporary Art Thessaloniki Museum of Photography Yeni Camii Duration: 23 September – 31 December 2017 The exhibition As they have done for centuries, Christians, Jews and Muslims pray today in sanctuaries belonging to another religion. Shared sacred sites are a well–established phenomenon in the Mediterranean, revealing the permeability of the frontiers between religious communities. Despite theological differences, the three religions share a number of elements in terms of beliefs, rites, holy figures and sites. These crossovers, however, are not devoid of ambiguity and can sometimes also lead to conflict. The Mediterranean world thus offers many examples of sharing, but also of partition and division. The three–part exhibition “Shared Sacred Sites” explores this phenomenon by locating it through various examples in different contexts and by bringing forward the entangled places and practices, symbols and figures that define it. Thessaloniki, is ideally positioned to tell the story of “Shared Sacred Sites”, not only because the three monotheistic religions have historically flourished here, but also because today the city finds itself at the Mediterranean crossroads of migration.
