  • The Politics of Privatisation: Redrawing the Public–Private Boundary
    West European Politics, Vol. 28, No. 2, 358 – 380, March 2005 The Politics of Privatisation: Redrawing the Public–Private Boundary GEORGE PAGOULATOS ABSTRACT Privatisation in Greece represented a reversal of the entire post-war and post-authoritarian interventionist policy paradigm. The privatisation decision resulted from pressures associated with the EC/EU and globalisation in general. The Simitis governments reactivated a privatisation programme comparable to that of ND in the early 1990s, but distinctly pragmatic in its reasoning, gradualist in its pace, and non- conflictual though unilateralist in its policy implementation. A central feature of the ‘Simitis privatisations’ was the flotation of successive minority stakes in public enterprises leading to retention of public control even though the government kept only a minority stake in the privatised enterprises. Privatisation was most far-reaching in the banking sector, with important broader implications for the entire economy. Despite the remarkably more favourable overall conditions under which the Simitis governments implemented privatisation as compared to the ND government in the early 1990s, privatisation policies continued to provide ad hoc opportunities for considerable socio- political opposition. Of all policies that impact on the state–market balance (financial deregulation, market liberalisation, reduction of public expenditure, etc.) privatisation is probably the most salient and direct. Not only does privatisation amount to a radical redrawing of the public–private boundary (Mu¨ ller and Wright 1994), but it also constitutes a momentous reversal of the entire post-war policy paradigm. As in most other Western economies, the public enterprise sector in Greece was built gradually during the twentieth century through successive waves of state consolidation.

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).

  • The Appropriation of the Pagan Honorary Column in Early Constan
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Christianizing the Skyline: The Appropriation of the Pagan Honorary Column in Early Constantinople A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Architecture by Pelin Yoncacı Arslan 2015 © Copyright by Pelin Yoncacı Arslan 2015 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Christianizing the Skyline: The Appropriation of the Pagan Honorary Column in Early Constantinople by Pelin Yoncacı Arslan Doctor of Philosophy in Architecture University of California, Los Angeles, 2015 Professor Diane G. Favro, Chair The freestanding column with culminating statue is generally viewed as a relatively limited genre in Roman art and architecture. The purpose of such a column varies between glorifying a victory and honoring an individual for his or her achievements. While the best-known examples were created in Rome during the Empire, such columns were common in early Byzantine Constantinople as well. This dissertation examines four such monuments: the Columns of Constantine, Theodosius I, Arcadius, and Justinian. These towering monuments were erected in imperial fora along the Mese, the main ceremonial thoroughfare passing across the city of Constantinople. The first part of the dissertation focuses on the art historical and material aspects of column monuments and illustrates the formal and urbanistic innovations applied in Constantinople. Comparison to other column monuments and monuments alike, both in the western and eastern Roman world, situates these built objects within their cultural contexts. The ii second part of the study addresses the visibility of the columns in the ritual and daily experience, focusing on secular and religious urban processions held along the branches of the Mese.

    69 Signs of Place Rebecca Döhl Julian Jansen van Rensburg (eds.) Döhl / Jansen van Rensburg (eds.) Signs of Place of Signs (eds.) Rensburg van Jansen / Döhl BERLIN STUDIES OF THE ANCIENT WORLD people have created place from within space by using an array of di erent types of signs in a multitude of di erent environments. Signs that can give insights into the very di erent ways in which ancient people have interacted with their natural surroundings and how they included it into their social and ideological realms. Within this volume we focus on di erent implementations of the concept of signs and place and the broad fi eld of meanings, associations, and defi nitions these interrelated terms cover. In so doing, the papers in this volume explore how di erent kinds of visual signs were positioned within the physical and morphological features of the landscape; how the land- scape was chosen or modifi ed to accommodate them; what value or information these signs provided for the place in which they were created; and how they have been socially, culturally, and spiritually appropriated over time. berlin studies of 69 the ancient world berlin studies of the ancient world · 69 edited by topoi excellence cluster Signs of Place a visual interpretation of landscape edited by Rebecca Döhl Julian Jansen van Rensburg Bibliographic information published by the Deutsche Nationalbibliothek The Deutsche Nationalbibliothek lists this publication in the Deutsche Nationalbibliographie; detailed bibliographic data are available on the Internet at http://dnb.d-nb.de. © 2019 Edition Topoi / Exzellenzcluster Topoi der Freien Universität Berlin und der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin Cover image: The island of Soqotra, Yemen: a superterrenean and subterranean karstic landscape of signs (Photo: J.
