  • Koliastasis P Phd 280714.Pdf
    Title The permanent campaign strategy of Greek Prime Ministers (1996–2011) Candidate Panagiotis Koliastasis Degree This thesis is submitted in fulfillment of the requirements of the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 4 Abstract Various academic authors have analysed the implementation, the causes and the impact of the permanent campaign strategy by political executives in presidential and parliamentary systems, notably the United States and United Kingdom. This study builds on this literature and extends the research on the permanent campaign in the European parliamentary majoritarian context by examining contemporary Greece as a national case study. In particular, the study addresses three questions. First, did contemporary Greek Prime Ministers adopt the permanent campaign strategy? Second, why did they do so? Third, what impact did the implementation of the permanent campaign have on their public approval? The research focuses on the cases of three successive Prime Ministers in Greece: Costas Simitis (1996–2004), Kostas Karamanlis (2004–2009) and George Papandreou (2009-2011). Simitis and Papandreou were leaders of the centre-left PASOK, while Karamanlis was the leader of the centre-right New Democracy. The study finds that all three Prime Ministers undertook the permanent campaign strategy in order to maintain public approval, aligning themselves with their British and American counterparts. They established new communication units within the primeministerial apparatus, consulted with communication professionals to form a coherent communication

  • Fergana Fergana (Uzbek: Fargʻona/Фарғона,ەناغرەف; Tajik: Фарғона
    Fergana Tajik: Фарғона, Farğona/Farƣona; P ;فەرغانە,Fergana (Uzbek: Fargʻona/Фарғона Farġāna/Farqâna; Russian: Фергана́), or Ferghana, is the capital فرغانه :ersian of Fergana Region in eastern Uzbekistan. Fergana is about 420 km east of Tashkent, about 75 km west of Andijan, and less than 20 km from the Kyrgyzstan border. While the area has been populated for thousands of years, the modern city was founded in 1876. History The fertile Fergana Valley was an important conduit on the Silk Roads (more precisely the North Silk Road), which connected the ancient Chinese capital of Xi'an to the west over the Wushao Ling Mountain Pass to Wuwei and emerging in Kashgar before linking to ancient Parthia, or on to the north of the Aral and Caspian Seas to ports on the Black Sea. It used to be called ferghana, during the Kushan empire. The ancient kingdom referred to as Dayuan (大宛, "Great Yuan", literally "Great Ionians") in the Chinese chronicles is now generally accepted as being in the Ferghana Valley. It is sometimes, though less commonly, written as Dawan (大宛). Dayuan were Greeks, the descendants of the Greek colonists that were settled by Alexander the Great in Ferghana in 329 BCE, and prospered within the Hellenistic realm of the Seleucids and Greco-Bactrians, until they were isolated by the migrations of the Yuezhi around 160 BCE. It has been suggested that the name "Yuan" was simply a transliteration of the words “Yona”, or “Yavana”, used throughout antiquity in Asia to designate Greeks (“Ionians”). Their capital was Alexandria Eschate. The earliest Chinese visitor was the ambassador Zhang Qian, who passed through on his way to secure a military alliance with the Da Yuezhi or 'Great Yuezhi' against the Xiongnu, c.

  • Commented by Siegfried BEER
    “VWI invites the Austrian Center for Intelligence, Propaganda and Security Studies (ACIPSS)” Wednesday, 16 January 2019, 3.00 pm 1010 Vienna, Rabensteig 3, 3rd Floor Benedetta CARNAGHI SPIES IN THE CONCENTRATION UNIVERSE HOW NAZI “V-MÄNNER” CONTRIBUTED TO DEPORTATION IN THE SECOND WORLD WAR The Gestapo used so-called Vertrauensmänner or V-Männer [confidence men] to spy on the political opponents of Nazism. Who were these spies and how were they recruited? What was their contribution to the persecution of the Jews throughout Europe? In Vienna, the Gestapo seemed to give top priority to the surveillance and dismantling of resistance groups, using V- Männer who had previous connections or were already inte- grated within such groups. The Gestapo in Berlin issued general guidelines for the subordinate office in Vienna, but Gestapo officials in Vienna took decisions at their own dis- cretion. What does that tell us about the Anschluss and the Austrians’ uneasy loyalty to Berlin? In Vienna, a small num- ber of Jews also served as spies and informers. The most famous of these Jewish spies was Rudolf Klinger, who was responsible for betraying and dismantling the resistance group led by Ella and Kurt Lingens and Karl Motesiczky. What can we learn by comparing Austria to Vichy and occupied France? The Nazis also used Vertrau- ensmänner in France, where many of them were identified and tried as “traitors” after the war. But to which “State” did the spies have to be loyal? Some defended themselves against the accusation of treason by arguing that

  • Betraying Your Own Jewish Spies and the Deportation of Jews During the Second World War
    Vol. 7|2020|No.2 Benedetta Luciana Sara Carnaghi Betraying Your Own Jewish Spies and the Deportation of Jews during the Second World War Abstract This article shows how the Fascist and the Nazi regimes orchestrated their repression proac- tively. They took advantage of Jewish informers who betrayed their own people, with trau- matic consequences for their individual and their community’s sense of identity. No spies were needed to arrest Jewish people under normal circumstances, but spies were essential for finding Jews who had gone into hiding in large cities. This article, based on previous -re search, court trials of convicted spies, and other archival and documentary material, illus- trates this system of repression with cases in Austria, Germany, and Italy. In his study of the genocide of Italian Jews, Simon Levis Sullam devoted one chap- ter to the informers.1 He described their deeds as one of the most perverse conse- quences of “the encounter – and the clash – between executioners and victims […] which pits even victims against each other”.2 If it is true that the Italian, German, and Austrian populations were often complicit in Fascist and Nazi repression, it is im- portant to show that the Fascist and Nazi regimes had orchestrated this repression proactively. A historical argument that overemphasises the popular nature of the dictatorships is dangerous inasmuch as it minimises the Fascist and Nazi regimes’ responsibility for the terror they perpetrated. Instead, one must understand that the Fascists and Nazis adapted their repression to instrumentalise human frailty: Their spies and confidential informers often numbered among the individuals they perse- cuted.

Its share of the vote fell from 44% in 2000 to 40.5%, and the right wing New Democracy Party won a relative majority in most regions. The decline was sharper in the urban centres than in the countryside, where PASOK lost around 1.5% of its vote. In the cities, it lost around 4.8% around the Athens region, 3% in Piraeus, 4.8% in Thessalonica. [https://internationalviewpoint.org/IMG/jpg/35831.jpg] The New Democracy (ND) increased the gap, with around 45.4% of the votes and 165 seats (42.7% in 2000), but this was far from the right wing landslide predicted by some. Moreover, the reasonably respectable score of the far right (2.2% for the bunch of fascists and nostalgics known as LAOS) remains sufficiently low to show that the ND has continued to attract a whole section of the far right, from royalists to orthodox fundamentalists symbolised by the figure of Papathemelis, a nationalist leader of PASOK who went over to the ND on the eve of the elections.

Something Borrowed, Something Red –Textiles in Colonial and Soviet Central Asia Kate Fitz Gibbon Anahita Gallery Santa Fe, NM [email protected] We should like, of course, to send the paranji and chachvon to hell, but we cannot always get everything we want by issuing decrees. Nadezhda Krupskaia1 Introduction This paper traces the appropriation and manipulation of traditional textiles and textile designs for political purposes from the Russian colonial period to the present in Central Asia. It is less focused on identifying specific borrowings back and forth between the dominant Russian and dependent Central Asian geographical spheres, and more on incidents that illustrate the use of textiles and the manipulation of textile design in ways that furthered this political paradigm. Within these back and forth equations, the most important textile by far (although also the least interesting in terms of aesthetics, invention or multiplicity of use) is the chachvon, the horsehair veil, but other textiles and textile designs functioned as symbolically representative of Central Asian identity or as symbolizing a change taking place in society.
