Αυτή είναι η φωτογραφία μου που
δημοσιεύτηκε στο ημερολόγιο που τυπώθηκε στα πλαίσια του προγράμματος δια
βίου μάθησης της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης «<span lang="EN-US">Uniting</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US">Seniors</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US">through</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US">Media</span>». Είναι το τέλος του
δρόμου στο στρατόπεδο Μπιρκενάου της Κρακοβίας. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Μαθαίνω ότι η κυβέρνηση είναι
κατά της Δια Βίου Μάθησης. Ελπίζω να το
ξανασκεφτεί με 26% ανεργία και με εκατοντάδες χιλιάδες ανέργους στις
μεγαλύτερες ηλικίες. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Έχω γράψει σε πολλά ιδρύματα και
φορείς που παρέχουν υποτροφίες ότι ένα μικρό ποσοστό θα πρέπει να κατευθύνεται
σε άτομα μεγαλύτερης ηλικίας γιατί διαφορετικά μιλάμε για ένα ακόμη είδος
ρατσισμού. (Πράγμα όχι και τόσο παράξενο όταν το ίδιο το κράτος σου λέει ότι «ξόφλησες»
δίνοντας συντάξεις στα 50.)<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Προς τιμήν του το ΙΚΥ μερικά
χρόνια πριν πραγματοποίησε μέσω ΕΣΠΑ πρόγραμμα υποτροφιών χωρίς όριο ηλικίας. <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Ελπίζω προγράμματα σαν και αυτό
να συνεχίσουν να υπάρχουν, αν και δεν ξέρω τι συμβαίνει τώρα με το καινούργιο

Το εγκατέλειψα μόνο και έρημο το blog μου. Δεν ανέβασα τίποτα από τις πολλές εμπειρίες μου αυτή τη χρονιά.<br />
Δεν έγραψα τίποτα για το τριών εβδομάδων πρόγραμμα Grundtvig που παρακολούθησα στο Lodz της Πολωνίας. Πραγματική εμπειρία ζωής γεμάτη δραστηριότητα μετά την οποία χρειάστηκα μερικές εβδομάδες ξεκούρασης για να μαζέψω τα κομμάτια μου.
Η επίσκεψη στο Αουσβιτς-Μπιργκενάου καταλυτική (και σχετική με την μεταπτυχιακή μου εργασία).<br />

Ούτε στην ορκωμοσία για το μεταπτυχιακό δεν πήγα. Τόση ήταν η κούρασή μου. Ήταν και τα προβλήματα στη μέση μου βέβαια που με ταλαιπωρούσαν.<br />
<br />
Δεν έγραψα ούτε για το ότι ήμουν υποψήφια Περιφερειακή Σύμβουλος με τη Νιόβη Παυλίδου.<br />
<br />
Και τσουπ ένα άλλο workshop 10 ημερών στο Ιάσιο της Ρουμανίας. Ούτε γιαυτό είχα διάθεση να γράψω. Τέλεια διεθνής ομάδα, παράξενη η Οργάνωση (καλτ;) που φιλοξενούσε το workshop. Δεν έβγαλα καμία φωτογραφία. Οι διοργανωτές άλλωστε μας έβγαλαν χιλιάδες.

Για να ευλογήσω και λίγο τα γένια μου, η ημέρα του workshop στο Βοτανικό κήπο του Ιασίου ήταν δική μου που την δέχτηκαν οι διοργανωτές αλλά και οι συμμετέχοντες.

Στη Ρουμανία χάλασε και το ipad μου και είχα και μια περιπέτεια με αυτό όταν γύρισα με τον Κωτσόβολο και την Apple που δεν έχει τελειώσει ακόμη. Καταγγελίες, αναφορές: Μου λέει ο σύζυγος: Γιατί δεν το ανεβάζεις και στο blog σου. Βαρέθηκα πια. Όποιος θέλει λεπτομέρειες <a href="http://alexanderchalkidis.com/blog/?p=19724">εδώ:</a><br />
<br />
Δεν ξέρω τι φταίει και το παράτησα. Μάλλον το Facebook που είναι πιο άμεσο. Ίσως δεν είμαι καλή στο να γράφω, προτιμώ να διαβάζω και να κοινοποιώ ό,τι μου αρέσει. Μπορεί να φταίει και λίγο η κούραση. Τώρα βέβαια φταίει και η ζέστη που δεν την μπορώ καθόλου. Με σκοτώνει.
<br />
<br />
Α! και ξέχασα και την δημοσίευση μιας εργασίας μου σε μια συλλογική δουλειά με τo IRTEA σχετικά με τα Βαλκάνια και την συμμετοχή μου ως ζωντανό βιβλίο με μια άλλη οργάνωση <a href="http://www.usbngo.gr/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=188:2014-05-08-12-48-28&catid=35:--usb&Itemid=55">εδώ:</a><br />
<br />
Πιστεύω ότι θα επανέρχομαι και θα ξαναγράφω κάθε φορά που έχω όρεξη.<br />

Σε αυτό το hot potato όταν πατάς chek φαίνεται το σηματάκι :) όταν η απάντηση είναι σωστή.

Σόφιας και δεν το μετάνιωσα καθόλου, αντιθέτως είμαι απόλυτα ικανοποιημένη!

και ολόκληρης της γης. Για παράδειγμα όταν η Οθωμανική αυτοκρατορία έκλεισε τον

παρότι εστιάζουμε στις εθνικές εκκαθαρίσεις που ενοχλούν τις δυνάμεις της Δύσης,
ακόμη και αυτή τη στιγμή, καθώς γράφω, γίνονται εθνικές εκκαθαρίσεις για τις οποίες
κανείς δεν μιλά. Δυστυχώς η Ιστορία γράφεται πάντα από αυτούς που έχουν την

<span style="font-size: large;">Τους έχω βγάλει άπειρες φωτογραφίες. Κάθε φορά που κάθονται κάπως παράξενα ή κοιμούνται ανέμελοι θέλω να απαθανατίζω τη στιγμή. Μου φαίνεται στους περισσότερους αρέσει. Παίρνουν και πόζες σαν σταρ του σινεμά ή σαν μοντέλα. Είπα και εγώ λοιπόν να δημοσιεύσω μερικές. Δεν θέλω να αδικήσω και κανέναν γιατί τους αγαπώ όλους και όλες το ίδιο. Εντάξει λίγο παραπάνω το Ζιζού τον μοναδικό μου γάτο και τώρα τελευταία έχω και μια μικρή αδυναμία στο Βιλάκο. Ίσως γιατί η φτερούγα μας (το δεξί μας χεράκι) έχει ένα μικρό πρόβλημα από το ατύχημα που μας έφερε κοντά. </span></div>

Συνήθως οι φιλόζωοι είναι και φιλάνθρωποι με την έννοια ότι βοηθούν και τους ανθρώπους όπου και όσο μπορούν. Και επίσης τα ζώα δεν φταίνε για την φτώχεια που υπάρχει στην ανθρωπότητα. Φταίνε οι άνθρωποι. Ας προσπαθήσουμε λοιπόν να κάνουμε το καλύτερο για την εξάλειψη της πείνας στον πλανήτη, χωρίς να παραμελούμε και τα ζώα που και αυτά έχουν δικαίωμα να ζήσουν.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Την Φαγώσιμη Γυναίκα την έγραψε το 1965 και παρόλο που πολλοί
νομίζουν ότι είναι το πρώτο της μυθιστόρημα η ίδια λέει ότι δεν είναι . Στην Εισαγωγή της έκδοσης που διάβασα (γράμματα,
1984) η συγγραφέας λέει λίγα λόγια σχετικά με το βιβλίο. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Στον Καναδά εκδόθηκε το 1969 χρονιά που συνέπεσε με την
άνοδο του φεμινισμού στην Βόρεια Αμερική.
Πολλοί υπέθεσαν ότι το βιβλίο ήταν προϊόν του κινήματος πράγμα που η ίδια
αρνείται γιατί όταν το έγραψε το 1965 δεν υπήρχε κανένα γυναικείο κίνημα στον
ορίζοντα. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Εγώ από την μεριά μου χαίρομαι που έσωσα το βιβλίο γιατί
μάλλον τα βιβλία μας σώζουν. Ένα
ενδιαφέρον νεανικό βιβλίο, μιας άλλης εποχής μα συνάμα τόσο σύγχρονο που θα
μπορούσε να αφορά τις νέες και τους νέους της εποχής μας. Φεμινιστικό δεν θα το
έλεγα αλλά σίγουρα είναι ένα ψυχογράφημα της νεαρής γυναίκας, της εγγράμματης
που βρίσκεται ανάμεσα στο δίλλημα καριέρα ή γάμος. Βέβαια το δίλλημα σε εκείνην
την εποχή έμπαινε στη ζωή των γυναικών πολύ πιο νωρίς από ότι τώρα αλλά
παραμένει ένα δίλλημα για κάθε γυναίκα.
Και το περιβάλλον έπαιζε και συνεχίζει να παίζει αρκετά σημαντικό ρόλο
σε αυτό. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Να σας πω την αλήθεια μου είχα αρχίσει με τα φαντάσματα της Θεσσαλονίκης,
μετά διαπίστωσα ότι ο <span lang="EN-US">Mazower</span>
έχει γράψει ένα άλλο βιβλίο σχετικά με την Ευρώπη του 20<sup>ου</sup> αιώνα που
ίσως να περιλαμβάνεται στο <span lang="EN-US">syllabus</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span>ενός από τα μαθήματα του χειμερινού εξαμήνου στο
μεταπτυχιακό οπότε άρχισα εκείνο. Κάποια στιγμή που ήθελα κάτι διαφορετικό, μου
έκλεισε το μάτι αυτή η Φαγώσιμη Γυναίκα και δεν μπορούσα να της χαλάσω χατίρι. Να σας πω
δεν μετανιώνω. Ό,τι διαβάζει ο άνθρωπος καλό είναι. Έχω και μια συμπάθεια
με τον Καναδά, από το λίγο που τον έχω γνωρίσει, και το βιβλίο περιγράφει επίσης
την καθημερινότητα σε αυτή τη χώρα. Βέβαια την καθημερινότητα του 1965 αλλά δεν
πειράζει. Όποιος έχει πάει στην Ελληνική συνοικία του Τορόντο εξάλλου είναι σαν να βλέπει την Ελλάδα του
1965.</span></div>

είναι πολύ καλύτερη Σαμαρείτης των σκύλων από ότι εγώ.</span></div>

γυναικείο βιβλίο και νομίζω απευθύνεται σε ένα ευρύ γυναικείο κοινό που θα
μείνει ευχαριστημένο με την ανάγνωσή του. Η αλήθεια είναι ότι η αρχή του
υπόσχεται περισσότερα από ότι στην πραγματικότητα προσφέρει το όλο περιεχόμενο.
Μπερδεύεσαι λίγο με τα πρόσωπα και τις εποχές και το τέλος είναι ελαφρώς
ανατρεπτικό αλλά λίγο απότομο. Παρόλα αυτά το συστήνω για ανάλαφρο καλοκαιρινό
διάβασμα, ένα σήριαλ σε βιβλίο που και δεν χρειάζεται να περιμένεις την επόμενη
εβδομάδα για την συνέχειά του και, μεταξύ μας, απείρως καλύτερο το να διαβάζεις κάτι
ανάλαφρο παρά να το βλέπεις στην τηλεόραση. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">ABSTRACT: In order to answer the question of a feasible
NATO enlargement in the Black Sea Region we have to take into consideration various
factors: The willingness of NATO to advance in the region, the impact of the
enlargement to Russia, the position of Russia in this enlargement and the
attitude of the states of the region towards NATO. In this paper we will show
that although an enlargement would be feasible in the future there are certain
obstacles that impede this advancement. The paper is based in written sources.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">As it is explained in the
official NATO brochure <i>What is NATO </i>there
is an Open Door policy. This became obvious from the very beginning of the
founding of the Alliance as very soon NATO extended the membership to involve
Greece and Turkey and West Germany. Spain became a member in 1982. After the
end of the Cold War another enlargement took place. Central European countries
solicited NATO membership as they believed that their security interests were satisfied
by joining NATO. So in 1999 the Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland became members
raising the number of member countries to 19. Seven more countries became
members of the Alliance at the end of March 2004: Bulgaria, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania,
Romania, Slovakia and Slovenia. This was the most extensive enlargement in the
history of the Alliance. In April 2009 Albania and Croatia became members.
Every European democracy is welcomed to seek membership under the
presupposition that it agrees to comply with the responsibilities and
obligations that derive from the membership. The reason why NATO holds its door
open is to develop security as well as collaboration that would build peace
established on democratic morals.<span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><i> </i><a href="file:///C:/Users/%CE%9A%CE%B1%CF%84%CE%B5%CF%81%CE%AF%CE%BD%CE%B1/Downloads/Is%20NATO%20enlargement%20in%20the%20Black%20Sea%20feasible%20(1).docx#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">[1]</span></span></a></span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">On the other hand the governments
of the states that constitute NATO are clear on their perspectives. Enlargement
of the Alliance is not an end in itself; it is rather a tool to widen security
to include distant places, thus making Europe a more stable region. In the Alliance they hold that the candidacy
of a certain state would be a motivating influence for disagreements and
conflicts between neighboring countries to be resolved. Countries that want to

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">NATO is facing today difficult
choices regarding the democratic transformation and security in the Black Sea
region. States that wish to be fellow members are investigated as to whether
their qualifications are connected and adequate to NATO. As it is easily
understood Russia comes on the scene as a decisive component in this
discussion. This means that any thought about NATO enlargement would
potentially irritate Russia. We have to bear in mind that today’s Russia is
stronger and more self-confident. Its influence in particular in the economic
field is greater in the Black Sea region. Another contributing factor is that
there is a controversy in the very confines of NATO about the “identity” of the
Black Sea region countries. For example can we consider Georgia and Ukraine as
European countries? And what we can say about Moldova, Armenia and Azerbaijan?
The later countries although have not immediate access to the Black Sea they
are considered part of the region.<a href="file:///C:/Users/%CE%9A%CE%B1%CF%84%CE%B5%CF%81%CE%AF%CE%BD%CE%B1/Downloads/Is%20NATO%20enlargement%20in%20the%20Black%20Sea%20feasible%20(1).docx#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">[2]</span></span></span></a><o:p></o:p></span></div>

if NATO has the aptitude to deal with the future security situations of the

and local governments are corrupted thus making the Afghans turn to extremists,
something that raises fears of civil war after the withdrawal of NATO forces.<a href="file:///C:/Users/%CE%9A%CE%B1%CF%84%CE%B5%CF%81%CE%AF%CE%BD%CE%B1/Downloads/Is%20NATO%20enlargement%20in%20the%20Black%20Sea%20feasible%20(1).docx#_ftn3" name="_ftnref3" title=""><sup><sup><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">[3]</span></sup></sup></a><o:p></o:p></span></div>

the wider Black Sea region was a region of the periphery concerning the
Westerns, now has become the next frontier in NATO’s strategy. In the light of
the increasing energy prices, a more confident Russia and the instability in
the wider area of Middle East, the strategy makers moved their attention
towards the Black Sea region as a whole. So from a periphery Black Sea became a
central strategic area and an important crossroad. Its strategic significance
is a perspective as well as a challenge in the same time. Since there are
various disputes in the region they have to be adjudicated in a peaceful way.
The various states in the region have to be governed in the rule of law and
they have to fight against corruption and trafficking. Another prerequisite is
the security of the energy production and transportation and more healthy and
well-healed markets. If all these goals can be achieved the region would play
the role of a bridge between East and West. If they fail to cope with their
problems there is the risk of destabilization of the whole area with

to assimilate the new situation, Ukraine out of necessity turned towards
Russia. Finally in February 1995 Ukraine entered the NATO’s Partnership for

from them to reform their state, give political freedoms and fight the
corrupted country they preferred to cooperate with Russia and in 1998 they even

In many cases Ukraine shows that vacillates between molding itself according to
Western standards and to its Russian/Soviet past. In the recent years under

same time Russia expressed its opposition to NATO’s enhancement plans. There
are speculations that Russia in its efforts to prevent Ukraine of joining NATO
prepared and concluded the Ukrainian-Russian Treaty of Friendship. Also there
were implications when in 1997 the US and Ukrainian naval held together the
exercise Sea Breeze. In the beginning, Russia which was invited, agreed to
participate. Soon this decision was changed by the Russian naval officers and

discussion. The other, as it happens with other former Soviet Union Republics,
is the negative disposition of Russia with regard to the NATO enlargement.

these territories and want to incorporate them into their sphere of influence. Although
NATO wants to play a role in the area, it has to take into consideration the
particular dynamics of the region as well as the international correlations.
Given that strategic attention is not so focused on Europe but is extended to
regions such as Iraq, Iran, etc, enlargement of the Alliance in not as
important as in previous years. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">Russia on the other hand continues
to focus on Black Sea as its key get away to the “hot waters” of the
Mediterranean Sea. At the dawn of the 21<sup>st</sup> century Russia comes back
as a great power and wants to play a role of both the rival as well as the
partner of Europe and USA. It also appears as the all-powerful neighbor for the
former Soviet nations.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">Under these circumstances NATO
enlargement although technically a feasible task it requires at the same time a
very delicate handling. NATO can act in the region as a power of political
reformation, as an influence for peace and as a provider of security. In this process NATO has to pay heed to the
areas of turbulence such as Abkhazia and South Ossetia in Georgia and the area
of Nagorno-Karabakh between Armenia and Azerbaijan. As Russia withstands to the
enlargement of NATO these animosities can fuel instability in the region. USA and the other NATO allies from their part
want to involve Russia in the European missile-defense system and to establish
a form of engagement of Russia to the Alliance. However decades of Cold War and
the distrust it generated make both parties suspicious of one another and of
hidden agendas and unwilling to grant concessions. <b><i><o:p></o:p></i></b></span></div>

<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Το βιβλίο το είχα στο ράφι της
βιβλιοθήκης για να το διαβάσω κάποια στιγμή. Έχει εκδοθεί το 2008. Θα είχα
διαβάσει κάποια σχόλια για αυτό ή θα το αγόρασα σαν ιστορικό μυθιστόρημα επειδή
μου αρέσουν. Πρέπει να σημειώσω εδώ ότι η ίδια αρνείται αυτόν τον όρο. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Ποτέ δεν ξέρεις πώς τα
φέρνει η ζωή. Για τους Μογγόλους δεν ήξερα τίποτα. Ο Τζέγκιζ Χαν νόμιζα ότι
είναι μυθικό πρόσωπο. Πάντα είμαστε προσκολλημένοι στην ιστορία της Δύσης και της
Ευρώπης. Άντε και λόγω σπουδών γνωρίζω σε γενικές γραμμές και αυτήν της Λατινικής
Αμερικής και λίγο τους Άραβες ως κατακτητές της Ισπανίας. Με το μεταπτυχιακό
φέτος ανακάλυψα ότι υπάρχει και η ιστορία της Ανατολής. Και οι Μογγόλοι έγιναν
πραγματικοί άνθρωποι, φυλές, κατακτητές και εκατοντάδες χρόνια ιστορίας. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Που να ήξερα όταν διάβαζα
στο πρώτο εξάμηνο για αυτές τις καινούργιες για μένα φυλές το βιβλίο της Μαριάννας
Κορομηλά και τον πλούτο των γνώσεων που θα μου πρόσφερε. Με αφορμή το ιστορικό
πρόσωπο της Μαρίας των Μογγόλων, κόρης του Μιχαήλ Παλαιολόγου που την έστειλε ο
πατέρας της να παντρευτεί με κάποιον Χαν, κατά την δημοφιλή πρακτική των
βυζαντινών αυτοκρατόρων για καλές σχέσεις με τους γείτονες και για διασφάλιση
των συνόρων, η Μαριάννα Κορομηλά γράφει και την αυτοβιογραφία της και αποκαλύπτει
τη βαθειά αγάπη της για την έρευνα των Ελλήνων της Μαύρης Θάλασσας αλλά και την
σχέση των Ελλήνων της Κωνσταντινούπολης με τους Ορθόδοξους της Συρίας. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Το βιβλίο της είναι ένας πλούτος
γνώσης σχετικά με αυτά τα θέματα. Μια άλλη ματιά στον Ελληνισμό, μακριά από τα
στενά όρια του Κράτους που δημιουργήθηκε τον 19ο αιώνα κατά τις Δυτικές
επιταγές. Του Ελληνισμού που άνθισε και επιβίωσε για χιλιετηρίδες γύρω από την
Μαύρη Θάλασσα αλλά και στην Εγγύς Ανατολή. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Νομίζω με αγγίζει βαθειά η
αγωνία της για το πόσα πράγματα θέλουμε να μάθουμε και για πόσα να ερευνήσουμε
και τον απίστευτα λίγο χρόνο που έχουμε αν αφαιρέσουμε και το χρόνο που
χρειαζόμαστε για βιοπορισμό. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Κάθε φορά που κάνεις ένα
απειροελάχιστο βήμα στο απέραντο σύμπαν της γνώσης ανοίγονται μπροστά σου τόσοι
καινούργιοι τομείς διερεύνησης, τόσα καινούργια δεδομένα που αισθάνεσαι σαν
κόκκος της άμμου που δεν μπορείς παρά να αγγίξεις μόνο μερικούς άλλους κόκκους
γύρω σου αλλά αντιλαμβάνεσαι τους άπειρους άλλους που υπάρχουν στη δική σου
αλλά και σε όλες τις ακρογιαλιές του
κόσμου που ποτέ δεν θα μπορέσεις να αγγίξεις. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Δεν έχω τελειώσει το βιβλίο,
αλλά κοντεύω να το τελειώσω, το συστήνω όμως σαν ένα βιβλίο που ανοίγει
καινούργιους ορίζοντες, που προσφέρει άλλη μια ζωή που όποιος δεν το διαβάσει
δεν θα έχει την ευκαιρία να τη ζήσει.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Σας ευχαριστώ κ. Κορομηλά,
και χαίρομαι τόσο πολύ που κάποια στιγμή αγόρασα το βιβλίο και τώρα διαβάζοντας
το μπορώ και ταξιδεύω στο χρόνο και στην ιστορία. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Το διάβασμα είναι μαγεία. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Αυτός είναι ο Ζιζού μου. Ο "μοναδικός μου γάτος" κατά τη "μοναδική αγάπη" του Μάνθου στο σήριαλ Κωνσταντίνου και Ελένης. Είναι ο πρώτος γατούλης που πήρα όταν μετακομίσαμε στη Θεσσαλονίκη. Μετά ήρθαν οι υπόλοιποι. Τους βρήκα στη γειτονιά που μετακόμισα και σιγά-σιγά τους στείρωσα όλους και όλες. Ο γλυκούλης μου ψάχνει να βρει μια κατά δική του κρυψώνα που να μην την ανακαλύψουν και του την κλέψουν οι υπόλοιποι. Επειδή καταλαβαίνουν ότι του έχω αδυναμία, όλοι οι άλλοι και άλλες θέλουν να τρώνε το φαΐ του και να κοιμούνται όπου κοιμάται ο Ζιζού. Τελευταία βρήκε αυτό το κλουβάκι που είναι το μικρό κλουβάκι που έχουμε μέσα στο οποίο μας ήρθε η Φαίη.<br />

Εδώ είναι στο τραπεζάκι του μπαλκονιού μαζί με τον Βιλάκο μας. Ο Βιλάκος σαν πιο μικρός κάνει ό,τι κάνει και ο Ζιζού.<br />
Πάντα μου άρεσαν τα ζώα. Και τα ζώα μέσα στο σπίτι να ανεβαίνουν στα τραπέζια και στους νεροχύτες, όπως έβλεπα στις ταινίες. Μου αρέσει πολύ που κυκλοφορούν στο σπίτι. Θα μου άρεσε να είχα και ένα σκύλο για να πηγαίνουμε μαζί βόλτες με το αυτοκίνητο, αλλά προς το παρόν είναι δύσκολο.<br />

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">In this coursework we are going to deal with the “idea” of
Constantinople in the popular psyche of the Greeks. The fact is that there is a
controversy among historians to whether there is a connection between Classical
Greek period and Byzantium, if Byzantine Empire forms part of the Greek Empire
and what is the connection between modern Greeks and Byzantium. On the other
hand lays also the Great Idea which was inculcated to the Greeks of the newly
formed state through educational and cultural propaganda since the 19<sup>th</sup>
century. And among them exists a population that suffered the consequences. So
we have to view our subject from two perspectives or two angles. The one has to
do with the city itself and the Greeks that resided in it throughout history
and the concept of Constantinople in modern Greece.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"> The date of 29 May 1453 was a landmark in
history. It marked the end of the Byzantine civilization. For eleven hundred
years Constantinople was a prominent city on the Bosporus. Was founded around 660 BCE by Greeks of
Megara and sometime in the Hellenistic period became the Byzantium. Constantine
the Great rebuilt the city as the new capital of the Roman Empire in the east
(336 AD). Constantinople remained the capital of the Roman Empire for the next
millennium. There is no other city in the world with a succession of ninety-two
emperors.<a href="file:///C:/Users/%CE%9A%CE%B1%CF%84%CE%B5%CF%81%CE%AF%CE%BD%CE%B1/Desktop/%CE%9A%CE%91%CE%A4%CE%95%CE%A1%CE%99%CE%9D%CE%91/%CE%9C%CE%B5%CF%84%CE%B1%CF%80%CF%84%CF%85%CF%87%CE%B9%CE%B1%CE%BA%CF%8C/%CE%97e%20Polis%20and%20the%20myth.docx#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">[1]</span></span></span></a><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Moreover, during this millennium it was the largest as well as the most
elegant and cosmopolitan city in Europe, where the Greek Classical period was
studied and admired. We owe a lot to Byzantine scribes for the preservation of
the literature of ancient Greece. The medieval Jewish traveler, Benjamin of
Tudela, impressed by the wealth of the city wrote: `The Greek inhabitants are
very rich in gold and precious stones and they go clothed in garments of silk
with gold embroidery, and they ride horses and look like princes ... Wealth
like that of Constantinople is not to be found in the whole world.' A crusading
knight, the Sieur de Villehardouin, wrote that in 1203 his fellow Crusaders
looked with wonder at Constantinople `when they saw these high walls and these
rich towers by which it was completely enclosed and those rich palaces and
those lofty churches of which there were so many that no one could believe it
unless he had seen it with his own eyes'. The citizens of Constantinople were not
viewing themselves as members of a race but as inheritors of both Greek and
Roman civilization consecrated by the Christian faith.<span class="MsoFootnoteReference"> <a href="file:///C:/Users/%CE%9A%CE%B1%CF%84%CE%B5%CF%81%CE%AF%CE%BD%CE%B1/Desktop/%CE%9A%CE%91%CE%A4%CE%95%CE%A1%CE%99%CE%9D%CE%91/%CE%9C%CE%B5%CF%84%CE%B1%CF%80%CF%84%CF%85%CF%87%CE%B9%CE%B1%CE%BA%CF%8C/%CE%97e%20Polis%20and%20the%20myth.docx#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">[2]</span></span></a></span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

the Conqueror, who captured Constantinople, had always admired Greek learning.
Furthermore as a Muslim regarded Christians as People of the Book, that is
people who had the same sacred book The Holy Bible, and so he granted them a
substantial degree of toleration. From the very beginning of his dominance of
the Byzantine Empire and Constantinople the administration was based on the
religious identity of the multicultural and multiethnic population. He adopted
an administration policy known as the millet system. Thus Greek people were
reunited under the Greek Church and Patriarch Gennadius was ruling as an
ethnarch, a religious as well as ethnic ruler. The Greeks were promised peace
and justice.</span><a href="file:///C:/Users/%CE%9A%CE%B1%CF%84%CE%B5%CF%81%CE%AF%CE%BD%CE%B1/Desktop/%CE%9A%CE%91%CE%A4%CE%95%CE%A1%CE%99%CE%9D%CE%91/%CE%9C%CE%B5%CF%84%CE%B1%CF%80%CF%84%CF%85%CF%87%CE%B9%CE%B1%CE%BA%CF%8C/%CE%97e%20Polis%20and%20the%20myth.docx#_ftn3" name="_ftnref3" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span lang="ES" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;"><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span lang="ES" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">[3]</span></span></span></span></a><span lang="ES" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;"> </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;">Of

refugees from Constantinople that were living in Greece used to speak in
present tense while they were referring to Constantinople. They were saying “We
go to Balukli, We pray at Agia Sofia, we buy fish at the bridge of Galata, we
go for a walk to Arnaoutkioi”. Findanides in the same introduction remembers of
a letter sent to Penelope Delta by Nikolaos Plastiras. In this letter Plastiras
refers to his first and maybe only visit to Constantinople, in 1919, when with
Halkokondilis were members of the battalion en route against Russia. As they
were sailing by Bosporus all the European cost of the Polis was full of Greek
flags. Thousand of Greek flags were fluttering on the balconies, on the
terraces to hail the Greek soldiers. Greeks of Constantinople cherished the
illusion that because Greek army was helping the allies in their military
campaign against the Bolsheviks they would in return give to the Greeks the
Polis and Agia Sofia as the Ottoman Empire was collapsing.<a href="file:///C:/Users/%CE%9A%CE%B1%CF%84%CE%B5%CF%81%CE%AF%CE%BD%CE%B1/Desktop/%CE%9A%CE%91%CE%A4%CE%95%CE%A1%CE%99%CE%9D%CE%91/%CE%9C%CE%B5%CF%84%CE%B1%CF%80%CF%84%CF%85%CF%87%CE%B9%CE%B1%CE%BA%CF%8C/%CE%97e%20Polis%20and%20the%20myth.docx#_ftn8" name="_ftnref8" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">[8]</span></span></span></a> <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;">At that time
about 200.000 Romioi were living in Polis and a lot of them were owners of
thriving companies, merchants and owners of banks. All were thinking that it
was the time for the marbled king to be resurrected. Of course the history is
known to everyone. The dream ended in nightmare when the Greek troops were defeated
at Saggarios in September 1922 and not only the Greeks of Constantinople but
more than 1,5 million Greeks were forced to live their ancestral homes and
become refuges in “mother” Greece. So today less than 2 thousand Greeks live in
Constantinople and the only think that has remained to connect the historical
past with the present and maybe the future is the Ecumenical Patriarchate.<a href="file:///C:/Users/%CE%9A%CE%B1%CF%84%CE%B5%CF%81%CE%AF%CE%BD%CE%B1/Desktop/%CE%9A%CE%91%CE%A4%CE%95%CE%A1%CE%99%CE%9D%CE%91/%CE%9C%CE%B5%CF%84%CE%B1%CF%80%CF%84%CF%85%CF%87%CE%B9%CE%B1%CE%BA%CF%8C/%CE%97e%20Polis%20and%20the%20myth.docx#_ftn9" name="_ftnref9" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">[9]</span></span></span></a> <o:p></o:p></span></div>

spoke of Themistocles and Pericles and tried to revive the pre-Christian past.
Many educated Greeks followed their example and undervalued the most recent
Byzantine heritage. This was to change soon. The Great Idea was to take form.
The dream was that the Greek Kingdom would integrate Constantinople and other provinces
where Greek people were living. There is no doubt that the Great Idea was
nationalistic. Of course there was a gulf that had to be filled. The “Hellenism” had to be reconciled with
Christianity since “Hellene” and its derivatives were associated with paganism. In 1852 Spyridon Zampelios propose the term
“Helleno-Christian” and in this way the Greek nationalism accomplished its task
to define Greeks and their past. Actually this word that filled the gap between
ancient Greek and Byzantium became the perfect term to describe the modern
Greek national identity.<span class="MsoFootnoteReference"> <a href="file:///C:/Users/%CE%9A%CE%B1%CF%84%CE%B5%CF%81%CE%AF%CE%BD%CE%B1/Desktop/%CE%9A%CE%91%CE%A4%CE%95%CE%A1%CE%99%CE%9D%CE%91/%CE%9C%CE%B5%CF%84%CE%B1%CF%80%CF%84%CF%85%CF%87%CE%B9%CE%B1%CE%BA%CF%8C/%CE%97e%20Polis%20and%20the%20myth.docx#_ftn10" name="_ftnref10" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">[10]</span></span></a></span>

Kingdom in the beginning of the twentieth century, like Ion Dragoumis and
Athanasios Souliotis-Nikolaidis hoped that they could revive the Eastern Empire
by promoting the Turkish-Greek mutual understanding and for this reason during
their sojourn in Constantinople they formed the “Organization of Constantinople”.
They were hoping that as it happened with the Roman Empire were the Greek
element turned the Roman Empire in a Greek state, the thriving Greek element of
Constantinople would become the dominant
factor in this new Greek-Ottoman cooperation.<a href="file:///C:/Users/%CE%9A%CE%B1%CF%84%CE%B5%CF%81%CE%AF%CE%BD%CE%B1/Desktop/%CE%9A%CE%91%CE%A4%CE%95%CE%A1%CE%99%CE%9D%CE%91/%CE%9C%CE%B5%CF%84%CE%B1%CF%80%CF%84%CF%85%CF%87%CE%B9%CE%B1%CE%BA%CF%8C/%CE%97e%20Polis%20and%20the%20myth.docx#_ftn12" name="_ftnref12" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">[12]</span></span></span></a> <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;">With the
Armistice of Mudros (Oct. 30, 1918) the defeat of the Ottoman Empire in the
World War I was marked. Being minor members of the Allied powers (Entente) the
circumstances were advantageous for the Greeks. Furthermore their Prime
Minister Eleftherios Venizelos was a reputable person among the Allies. So he
was called to Paris peace conference (1919-20) in order to propose the
territorial claims of the country upon the corpse of the Ottoman Empire.
Actually he was offered Constantinople but he refrained of this demand and
preferred to ask instead Northern Epirus, the Aegean islands, Izmir and the
whole Thrace. He proposed an international status for Constantinople because he
was sure that in the long run the Greek element of Constantinople would
prevail. By voluntary intermigration he was hoping to attain the fulfillment of
Megali Idea by creating the Greater Greece. He assured King Alexander of Greece
that “we shall take the City”.<a href="file:///C:/Users/%CE%9A%CE%B1%CF%84%CE%B5%CF%81%CE%AF%CE%BD%CE%B1/Desktop/%CE%9A%CE%91%CE%A4%CE%95%CE%A1%CE%99%CE%9D%CE%91/%CE%9C%CE%B5%CF%84%CE%B1%CF%80%CF%84%CF%85%CF%87%CE%B9%CE%B1%CE%BA%CF%8C/%CE%97e%20Polis%20and%20the%20myth.docx#_ftn13" name="_ftnref13" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">[13]</span></span></span></a><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;">Political and
religious agitation in Greece and Ottoman territory as well as readjustments of
the policies of the Entente powers resulted in a climax of the Anatolia
confrontation. During the summer of 1922 the Turkish army was victorious in
Anatolia and believing that the non-Muslims were a trouble decided to
forcefully throw them out of Anatolia. This led to the Smyrna massacre in
September 1922. After that the Constantinopolitan Greeks became very
susceptible to atrocities from the nationalist Turks who demanded the expulsion
of the minorities, considering them as instruments that the Allies were using
to accomplish their anti-Turkish purposes. Of course after the need of the accommodation
of a million refugees in the newly formed and poor country such as Greece the
expulsion of another about 300.000 Greeks of Constantinople would have been a
nightmare for the Greek government. Very hard negotiation took place and the
Greeks that lived in Constantinople finally survived the exchange of population.<a href="file:///C:/Users/%CE%9A%CE%B1%CF%84%CE%B5%CF%81%CE%AF%CE%BD%CE%B1/Desktop/%CE%9A%CE%91%CE%A4%CE%95%CE%A1%CE%99%CE%9D%CE%91/%CE%9C%CE%B5%CF%84%CE%B1%CF%80%CF%84%CF%85%CF%87%CE%B9%CE%B1%CE%BA%CF%8C/%CE%97e%20Polis%20and%20the%20myth.docx#_ftn14" name="_ftnref14" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">[14]</span></span></span></a>
Unfortunately during the coming years they underwent pressure every time the
Greek-Turkish relationships were hostile.
Because of the violation of the treaty of Lausanne from the side of
Turkey in several occasions and of the ethnic cleansing the Turkish government
had programmed and because of the anti-Greek pogroms, the Greek population
found themselves obliged to leave Constantinople leaving behind their
businesses and their realties and flee to Greece in 1955.<a href="file:///C:/Users/%CE%9A%CE%B1%CF%84%CE%B5%CF%81%CE%AF%CE%BD%CE%B1/Desktop/%CE%9A%CE%91%CE%A4%CE%95%CE%A1%CE%99%CE%9D%CE%91/%CE%9C%CE%B5%CF%84%CE%B1%CF%80%CF%84%CF%85%CF%87%CE%B9%CE%B1%CE%BA%CF%8C/%CE%97e%20Polis%20and%20the%20myth.docx#_ftn15" name="_ftnref15" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">[15]</span></span></span></a><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;">So what was
Constantinople for the modern Greeks? Was it a myth? From the above we can
conclude that it was not actually a mere myth. It was a city where the Greek
element was present throughout its history, from the very antiquity up to our
days, and this is something nobody can deny. Even under Ottoman suzerainty Greeks were
thriving in the city. Théophile Gautier in his book Constantinople speaks about
Phanari and points out the difference for example of the Greek locality with
the Jewish one and writes that Phanari is something like the West End or the
Alsatia. He goes on to mention that in this locality the descendants of
Commenus, Ducas and Paleologus live. They live in considerable wealthy mansions
and they have diplomatic talent.<a href="file:///C:/Users/%CE%9A%CE%B1%CF%84%CE%B5%CF%81%CE%AF%CE%BD%CE%B1/Desktop/%CE%9A%CE%91%CE%A4%CE%95%CE%A1%CE%99%CE%9D%CE%91/%CE%9C%CE%B5%CF%84%CE%B1%CF%80%CF%84%CF%85%CF%87%CE%B9%CE%B1%CE%BA%CF%8C/%CE%97e%20Polis%20and%20the%20myth.docx#_ftn16" name="_ftnref16" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">[16]</span></span></span></a> <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;">But we cannot
deny that it was used as a myth or even more specifically as a symbol during
the years that the Modern Greek nation was formed. Here we can consult the ideas of Charles King about
the people of the Black Sea region and their conflicts. As King states these
conflicts are not more than in other parts of the world, in fact, he claims
that maybe they are less. The thing is that in this part of the world the ideas
of modern state, of the nation-state and the cultural defined nations came not
earlier than the beginning of the twentieth century and in some cases even
later. Nowadays in this region of South-East Europe we tend to define ourselves
in ways that were completely unknown to our ancestors.<a href="file:///C:/Users/%CE%9A%CE%B1%CF%84%CE%B5%CF%81%CE%AF%CE%BD%CE%B1/Desktop/%CE%9A%CE%91%CE%A4%CE%95%CE%A1%CE%99%CE%9D%CE%91/%CE%9C%CE%B5%CF%84%CE%B1%CF%80%CF%84%CF%85%CF%87%CE%B9%CE%B1%CE%BA%CF%8C/%CE%97e%20Polis%20and%20the%20myth.docx#_ftn17" name="_ftnref17" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">[17]</span></span></span></a><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;">So, in the case
of Greece, cultural elements that existed but were not so much stressed, had to
be used in order to form a national state that was supposedly homogeneous.
Byzantium that later became Constantinople was the ideal symbol to unify the
newly born state and to give it a Great Idea to fight for it. Thus
Constantinople played a vital role in the modern Greek culture as it nurtured its own existence as a nation. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #666699;"><strong>Προεκλογική ομιλία Στέφανου Μάνου, Προέδρου της Δράσης, στον Πολυχώρο ACRO την Τρίτη 5 Ιουνίου 2012</strong></span><br />
<br />
Αγαπητές φίλες, Αγαπητοί φίλοι,<br />
<br />
Σας ευχαριστώ για την παρουσία σας.<br />
<br />
Σε 12 μέρες θα τελειώσει η προεκλογική περίοδος. Θα πάψουμε να ακούμε στα παράθυρα της τηλεόρασης τις θεωρίες και τα ιδεολογήματα των κομμάτων που διεκδικούν την ψήφο μας. Θα σταματήσουν να μας λένε για τα λεφτά που θα μας δώσουν και δεν έχουν, για τα λεφτά που θα διεκδικήσουν, για τα λεφτά που θα απαιτήσουν. Για συμφωνητικά που θα ακυρώσουν και θα αναδιαπραγματευτούν. Στις 18/6 τα λόγια θα σταματήσουν και θα προβάλλει η πραγματικότητα.<br />
<br />
Την περασμένη εβδομάδα τα δύο κόμματα που διεκδικούν το μπόνους των 50 εδρών παρουσίασαν τις καινούργιες εκλογικές τους θέσεις. 31/5 η ΝΔ και την επομένη, 1/6 ο ΣΥΡΙΖΑ. Σε πολλά σημεία οι θέσεις τους είναι ταυτόσημες. Υπόσχονται να μας ανακουφίσουν από τα δεινά του μνημονίου. Με λεφτά όμως που δεν υπάρχουν και δεν μπορούμε πια να δανειστούμε. Η ΝΔ υπόσχεται να τα βρει κόβοντας δαπάνες. Κάτι που ποτέ δεν έκανε. Ως κυβέρνηση αύξαινε τις δαπάνες την ίδια στιγμή που υποσχόταν να τις περιορίσει. Ο ΣΥΡΙΖΑ υπόσχεται να τα βρει διπλασιάζοντας τους φόρους εισοδήματος. Ακούσατε καλά. Διπλασιάζοντας τους φόρους εισοδήματος. Κατά την άποψη του είναι απόλυτα φιλολαϊκό η χωρίς μέτρο αύξηση των φόρων και η δήμευση της περιουσίας.<br />
<br />
Αυτό που πρέπει να προσέξετε δεν είναι τόσο τα ψέματα που ως συνήθως μας λένε, αλλά ότι και τα δύο κόμματα που προσβλέπουν αποκλειστικά και μόνο στην εξουσία αλλάζουν τα προγράμματα με τα οποία κατέβηκαν στις εκλογές της 6/5. Τι αξιοπιστία μπορούν να έχουν προγράμματα για την οικονομία που αλλάζουν ανάλογα με τις εκλογικές επιδιώξεις του κόμματος που τα συντάσσει;<br />
<br />
Τα τελευταία δύο χρόνια, ως χώρα, χάσαμε και το τελευταίο ίχνος αξιοπιστίας που διαθέταμε. Δεν θα ανακτήσουμε την αξιοπιστία μας παρουσιάζοντας αναξιόπιστα προγράμματα. Δεν θα ανακτήσουμε την αξιοπιστία μας αν συμπεριφερόμαστε αναξιόπιστα. Την περασμένη εβδομάδα ο κ. Βενιζέλος, ο πρόεδρος του ΠΑΣΟΚ, διαβεβαίωσε την ΑΔΕΔΥ ότι δεν θα γίνουν απολύσεις στο Δημόσιο. Ο ίδιος κ. Βενιζέλος ήταν ο βασικός συντάκτης, υποστηρικτής και εγγυητής του Μνημονίου που προβλέπει τη μείωση κατά 150.000 του αριθμού των δημοσίων υπαλλήλων μέχρι το 2015. Όλοι, ΣΥΡΙΖΑ, ΝΔ και ΠΑΣΟΚ υποκύπτουν στον λαϊκισμό και χάνουν την αξιοπιστία τους.<br />
<br />
Η ΔΗΜΑΡ ζητεί επιμήκυνση, έως το τέλος του 2017, της δημοσιονομικής προσαρμογής. Αυτό σημαίνει μεγαλύτερο πρωτογενές έλλειμμα για φέτος, καθώς και για τα επόμενα χρόνια, δηλαδή ΝΕΑ ΔΑΝΕΙΑ. Δηλαδή περισσότερα, αλλεπάλληλα, Μνημόνια. Αντί για απαγκίστρωση και απεγκλωβισμό, όπως διατείνεται η ΔΗΜΑΡ, θα έχουμε βαθύτερο, μόνιμο εγκλωβισμό.<br />
<br />
Στο περιβάλλον της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης, όλα αποφασίζονται μετά από εξαντλητικό διάλογο και διαπραγμάτευση. Η σωστή και επιτυχημένη διαπραγμάτευση προϋποθέτει καλή πίστη και ξεκάθαρο στόχο. Ούτε το ένα διαθέτουμε ούτε το άλλο. Ο μόνος στόχος μέχρι σήμερα ήταν πως να πάρουμε τα λεφτά. Πολλοί μάλιστα πρόβαλλαν ως έξυπνη εθνική πολιτική την ιδέα: "τώρα που τα πήραμε, να μη τους τα γυρίσουμε!". Για αξιοπιστία και καλή πίστη καλύτερα να μη μιλάμε.<br />
<br />
Η Δράση παρουσίασε τις δεσμεύσεις της και τις βασικές θέσεις της για την οικονομία λίγα χρόνια πριν από τις εκλογές του Μαϊου. Τις επανέλαβε προεκλογικά τον περασμένο Απρίλιο και σήμερα θα σας τις ξαναθυμίσω. Δεν αλλάζουμε για να προσαρμοστούμε στο ακροατήριο μας, ή για να αρέσουμε περισσότερο. Θα αλλάζαμε αν άλλαζαν οι περιστάσεις. Αλλά δυστυχώς οι περιστάσεις δεν άλλαξαν, έγιναν πιο δύσκολες. Επιβεβαίωσαν όλες μας τις προβλέψεις. Μπορεί να μην είμαστε ευχάριστοι, αλλά είμαστε πάντως αξιόπιστοι. Λέμε ακριβώς ότι πιστεύουμε και θα κάνουμε ακριβώς ότι λέμε. Είμαστε οι μόνοι που έχουμε διαφορετική πρόταση, δεν είμαστε φερέφωνο κανενός. Ζητάμε την ψήφο σας. Για να μπορούμε να δουλέψουμε ουσιαστικά για αυτά που πρέπει να γίνουν. Για να έχουμε την Ελλάδα που μας αξίζει.<br />
<br />
Δεσμευόμαστε ότι αν κάποιος από εμάς συμμετάσχει στην μετεκλογική κυβέρνηση θα παραιτηθεί από τη Βουλή. Διότι θεωρούμε ότι, με τα σημερινά δεδομένα, είναι χρήσιμο να μη ταυτίζεται η εκτελεστική με τη νομοθετική εξουσία. Κάτι παρόμοιο λέει και η ΝΔ αλλά θέλει να το επιβάλλει με νόμο για να ισχύει και για τους άλλους στο μέλλον. Εμείς δεν χρειαζόμαστε νόμο και δεν μας ενδιαφέρει τι θα κάνουν οι άλλοι. Δεσμευόμαστε να επιβάλλουμε τον κανόνα στον εαυτό μας αμέσως.<br />
<br />
Τα κόμματα χρηματοδοτούνται ετησίως από τον προϋπολογισμό με περίπου 10 € για κάθε ψήφο που πήραν στις εκλογές. Το ποσό είναι υπέρογκο και προκλητικό και πάντως πολύ υψηλότερο από ότι ισχύει στα άλλα πιο πλούσια κράτη της Ευρώπης. Η Δράση δεσμεύεται να κρατήσει 0,70 € και να επιστρέψει το υπερβάλλον ποσό. Γιατί 0,70 € ανά ψήφο; Διότι τόσα δίνει η "φτωχή" Γερμανία στα δικά της κόμματα, ποσό πουη θεωρούμε δικαιολογημένα αρκετό. Αν δηλαδή λάβουμε 250.000 ψήφους και βάσει του νόμου δικαιούμεθα 2.500.000 € ετησίως θα επιστρέψουμε τα 2.325.000 € και θα κρατήσουμε 175.000 €. Όποιος ψηφίσει Δράση αντί π.χ. για ΔΗΜΑΡ ή κάποιο άλλο κόμμα βοηθάει το κράτος να εξοικονομήσει 9,30 €. Με τα ποσοστά που δίνουν οι δημοσκοπήσεις στον ΣΥΡΙΖΑ, οι φορολογούμενοι θα καταβάλλουν ετησίως στο ταμείο του, ποσό μεγαλύτερο από 15.000.000 €. Με τη δική μας δέσμευση θα εξοικονομούσαν 13.950.000 €.<br />
<br />
Αναφέρθηκα στην αρχή της ομιλίας μου στην πραγματικότητα που θα εμφανιστεί μπροστά μας την επομένη των εκλογών. Μερικές πτυχές της έχουν ξεφύγει από το κουκούλωμα και φανερώνονται. Απειλούνται οι άνθρωποι που χρειάζονται ιατροφαρμακευτική φροντίδα. Γιατί; διότι έχουν σωθεί τα λεφτά! Απειλούμαστε με ενεργειακό black-out. Γιατί; διότι έχουν σωθεί τα λεφτά! Το κράτος χρωστάει και δεν πληρώνει. Διότι δεν έχει λεφτά. Επειδή χρωστάει και δεν πληρώνει, το ίδιο κάνουν και οι προμηθευτές του. Και αυτοί δεν πληρώνουν. Ούτε τους δικούς τους προμηθευτές τους, ούτε τους εργαζόμενούς τους, ούτε τους φόρους τους. Όλη η παραγωγική διαδικασία οδηγείται σε παύση. Οι άνεργοι του ιδιωτικού τομέα ξεπερνούν το εκατομμύριο. Η Ελλάδα σε στάση.<br />
<br />
Θα σας παρακαλούσα να σκεφτείτε τι σημαίνει αυτή η συμπεριφορά του δημοσίου προς τους πολίτες: Το Κράτος δεν πληρώνει τα φάρμακα όχι διότι δεν έχει καθόλου λεφτά αλλά επειδή επιλέγει να δώσει τα περιορισμένα λεφτά κάπου αλλού! Προτιμά να πληρώνει χρυσούς μισθούς στον ΗΣΑΠ και σε άλλες ΔΕΚΟ παρά τα φάρμακα των καρκινοπαθών. Ο ΣΥΡΙΖΑ υπόσχεται να το συνεχίσει αυτό. Ίσως υπολογίζει ότι ο καρκινοπαθής έτσι και αλλιώς δεν θα μπορέσει να πάει να ψηφίσει ενώ ο εργαζόμενος στον ΗΣΑΠ μπορεί... Εμείς λέμε ότι αυτό είναι ανήθικο και πρέπει να σταματήσει. Δεν έχουμε κάτι εναντίον των δημοσίων υπαλλήλων όπως πολλοί προσπαθούν να μας προσάψουν. Απλά λέμε ότι τα λεφτά δεν φτάνουν και πρέπει να μπουν προτεραιότητες. Ο αληθινός πολιτικός ηγέτης είναι κάποιος που μπορεί να πάρει αυτές τις αποφάσεις για να στηριχθούν αυτοί που πραγματικά έχουν ανάγκη.<br />
<br />
Πώς θα ανασυγκροτηθεί παραγωγικά η χώρα; Με τα ευχολόγια και τις διακηρύξεις της Ν.Δ., του ΠΑΣΟΚ, του ΣΥΡΙΖΑ ή μήπως της ΔΗΜΑΡ; Χωρίς κόπο και σκληρή δουλειά, χωρίς θυσίες; Με τα κεκτημένα, κεκτημένα και αδιαπραγμάτευτα; Το πιστεύει κανείς; Όχι θα μου πείτε. Αλλά αν όχι, γιατί λέει ότι θα τους ψηφίσει; Είναι αυτό το Ελληνικό πολιτικό παράδοξο;<br />
<br />
Απέναντι στην πραγματικότητα που θα φανερωθεί απειλητικά αμέσως μετά τις εκλογές δηλώνουμε ότι είμαστε ανεπιφύλακτα υπέρ της παραμονής της χώρας μας στο Ευρώ και στην Ευρωζώνη. Διότι αν φύγουμε από το Ευρώ θα μας συμβεί αυτό που μάλλον ρόδινα περιέγραψε την περασμένη εβδομάδα στην ανάλυσή της η Εθνική Τράπεζα. Το κατά κεφαλήν εισόδημα μας θα πέσει κατά περίπου 50%. Η ζημιά δεν θα είναι μόνο οικονομική. Εάν φύγουμε από την Ευρώπη θα είμαστε ευάλωτοι σε ένα ολοένα και πιο ασταθές γεωπολιτικό περιβάλλον.<br />
<br />
Ακύρωση του μνημονίου και των εφαρμοστικών νόμων σημαίνει ότι δεν θέλουμε να συζητήσουμε με τους δανειστές μας. Η Ευρώπη έχει μάθει στον διάλογο. Δεν ξέρουν πώς να χειριστούν κάποιον που δε θέλει να συζητήσει. Εάν ακυρώσουμε, απλώς θα ακυρώσουν και αυτοί και θα πάρουν τα λεφτά τους. Τότε θα αναγκαστούμε να φύγουμε από το Ευρώ και την Ευρώπη. Και θα επέλθει οικονομική, κοινωνική και ενδεχομένως εθνική καταστροφή. Είμαστε λοιπόν κάθετα αντίθετοι στην ακύρωση για την οποία δεσμεύεται ο ΣΥΡΙΖΑ.<br />
<br />
Το μνημόνιο αναθεωρείται διαρκώς μέσα από μια διαδικασία διαπραγμάτευσης. Είμαστε υπέρ της διαπραγμάτευσης και του διαλόγου διότι έτσι επιτυγχάνεται καλύτερο αποτέλεσμα.<br />
<br />
Στις 18 Ιουνίου δεν θα υπάρχει μνημόνιο. Το μνημόνιο ΙΙ έγινε κουρελόχαρτο στη διάρκεια της τρίμηνης εκλογικής αναταραχής. Θα χρειαστεί να διαμορφωθεί ένα νέο μνημόνιο που θα λάβει αναγκαστικά υπόψη του τη νέα (και χειρότερη) πραγματικότητα.<br />
<br />
Τι θα θέλαμε να δούμε στο νέο μνημόνιο;</div>
<ul style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: -webkit-auto;">
<li>Δέσμευση από τα πολιτικά κόμματα ότι δεν θα ξαναφέρουν το λαό σε αυτή τη κατάντια· να δεσμευτούμε ότι θα προτείνουμε συνταγματική μεταρρύθμιση για πιστή τήρηση ισοσκελισμένων προϋπολογισμών.<br /> </li>
<li>Άμεση μείωση του Δημόσιου τομέα είτε με απολύσεις (για υπηρεσίες που πραγματικά δεν χρειάζονται και με ειδική τριετή πρόβλεψη διευκόλυνσης όσων χάσουν τη δουλειά τους), είτε με μεταφορά των υπαλλήλων και των υπηρεσιών σε νέα ιδιωτική επιχείρηση με σύμβαση παροχής υπηρεσιών προς το Δημόσιο. Μεταφορά του οικονομικού οφέλους σε μακροπρόθεσμα προγράμματα στήριξης των ανέργων.<br /> </li>
<li>Δραστική φορολογική μεταρρύθμιση. Απλούστατο φορολογικό πλαίσιο ώστε να είναι κατανοητό για τον φορολογούμενο και εύκολα ελέγξιμο από το Κράτος. Κατάργηση φόρων κατοχής στην ακίνητη περιουσία (πρώτον διότι δεν συνδέονται με τη φοροδοτική ικανότητα και δεύτερον διότι καταστρέφουν την αξία της περιουσίας όλων μας-και της δημόσιας). Είμαι πεπεισμένος ότι η απλότητα από μόνη της θα μειώσει δραστικά τη φοροδιαφυγή. Δέσμευση των κομμάτων ότι δεν θα αλλάξει το φορολογικό πλαίσιο εξ αιτίας τους για τα επόμενα 10 χρόνια. Ξέρουμε ότι η ανάπτυξη χρειάζεται επενδύσεις και οι επενδύσεις χρειάζονται σταθερότητα. Αυτό που προτείνω ουσιαστικά είναι να δεσμευτούμε όλοι να κάνουμε μια προσπάθεια να φέρουμε τις επενδύσεις διότι μόνον έτσι θα μειωθεί η ανεργία.<br /> </li>
<li>Δέσμευση του Κράτους ότι εάν χάσει πρωτοδίκως μια δίκη εναντίον πολίτη δεν θα εφεσιβάλλει την απόφαση εκτός πολύ εξαιρετικών περιπτώσεων. Για να αποσυμφορηθεί άμεσα η δικαιοσύνη στα εφετεία και τον Άρειο Πάγο και να μην πληρώνουν οι φορολογούμενοι την ευθυνοφοβία της γραφειοκρατίας.<br /> </li>
<li>Αναλυτικό πρόγραμμα μετάβασης σε ένα συνταξιοδοτικό σύστημα που ενισχύει την ανταγωνιστικότητα, διευκολύνει την ανάπτυξη και εγγυάται μια ελάχιστη σύνταξη 700 € για όλους τους πολίτες πάνω από ένα όριο ηλικίας χωρίς εισφορές (φυσικά θα μπορούν οι πολίτες να κάνουν εισφορές σε ιδιωτικούς ασφαλιστικούς φορείς για να προγραμματίσουν σύνταξη υψηλότερη της ελάχιστης). Η Πολιτεία οφείλει να δείχνει σεβασμό στους ηλικιωμένους.</li>
</ul>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: justify;">
Στην επόμενη Βουλή, η Δράση με τη Δημιουργία Ξανά και τη Φιλελεύθερη Συμμαχία δεν θα μπορέσουμε μόνοι μας να διαμορφώσουμε το νέο μνημόνιο. Θέλουμε όμως να μπορέσουμε να συμμετάσχουμε στη διαμόρφωση του. Δεσμευόμαστε ότι θα στηρίξουμε μια κυβέρνηση που θα αγωνιστεί για την παραμονή μας στην Ευρώπη και την Ευρωζώνη και θα στηρίξει τις μεγάλες μεταρρυθμίσεις που χρειάζεται η Ελλάδα για την παραγωγική της ανασυγκρότηση. Τη μείωση του δημόσιου τομέα, τη βαθιά απλοποίηση της φορολογικής νομοθεσίας και την επίσης βαθιά ασφαλιστική μεταρρύθμιση.<br />
Να λοιπόν τι είναι η Δράση. Κόμμα ανεπιφύλακτα φιλοευρωπαϊκό και βαθιά μεταρρυθμιστικό. Μπορεί να είμαστε μικρό κόμμα, αλλά είμαστε κόμμα εξουσίας. Όχι διαμαρτυρίας. Είμαστε έτοιμοι να συμβάλλουμε στην διακυβέρνηση του τόπου και να αναλάβουμε τις ευθύνες που αναλογούν. Είμαστε συνεπώς παράγοντας πολιτικής σταθερότητας.<br />
<br />
Είμαστε ο μόνος συνδυασμός που ζητά την άμεση μείωση του δημόσιου τομέα διότι μόνον έτσι θα δημιουργηθεί χώρος για την πολυπόθητη ανάπτυξη.<br />
Είμαστε τα μόνα κόμματα που δεν ρίχνουμε την ευθύνη για τα σημερινά μας χάλια στους ξένους. Πιστεύουμε ότι εμείς και μόνον εμείς ευθυνόμαστε αν δεν μπορέσαμε να αξιοποιήσουμε τον ελληνικό πλούτο, το κλίμα, τον ήλιο, τους ανθρώπους μας, την απίστευτη πολιτιστική μας κληρονομιά. Εμείς ευθυνόμαστε, ναι και γι αυτό είναι στο δικό μας χέρι να κερδίσουμε τη μάχη και να αλλάξουμε το κατεστημένο που μας έχει οδηγήσει σε αυτή την κατάσταση. Στο δικό μας χέρι και όχι στο χέρι της τρόϊκας ή άλλων ξένων.<br />
<br />
Και ένα τελευταίο σχόλιο: πολλοί μιλούν για την εθνική μας αξιοπρέπεια και πως μας την αφαίρεσε το μνημόνιο. Εγώ θεωρώ ότι θα ανακτήσουμε την εθνική μας αξιοπρέπεια όταν θα είμαστε σε θέση να βοηθήσουμε με χρήματα και με τεχνογνωσία τους Ευρωπαίους εταίρους μας όταν μας έχουν ανάγκη. Αυτός πρέπει να είναι ο εθνικός μας στόχος. Να είμαστε αρκετά καλοί και ικανοί να βοηθήσουμε τους εταίρους μας όταν μας χρειάζονται. Δεν μπορεί να είναι στόχος μας πως θα πάρουμε όσα περισσότερα μπορούμε κάνοντας όσα λιγότερα μπορούμε.<br />
<br />
Πιστεύω ακλόνητα στις τεράστιες συλλογικές δυνατότητες των Ελλήνων και του απανταχού Ελληνισμού. Μην αδικούμε μόνοι μας τον εαυτό μας.<br />
Πιστέψτε στην Ελλάδα<br />
.<br />
Σας ευχαριστώ για την παρουσία σας και την προσοχή σας.<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"> Η ΔΡΑΣΗ λοιπόν με έβαλε και πάλι στο
ψηφοδέλτιό της για τις εκλογές της 17<sup>ης</sup> Ιουνίου. Θα ήθελα να τους ευχαριστήσω
για την τιμή που μου κάνουν. Παρόλο ότι ήμουν αυτό που λένε </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">outsider</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">και εξήγησα ότι δεν θα με πείραζε
καθόλου αν δεν ήμουν στα ψηφοδέλτια για αυτές τις εκλογές, εκείνοι με επέλεξαν.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";"> Αυτή τη φορά κατεβαίνουμε σαν συνασπισμός
κομμάτων μαζί με τη Δημιουργία Ξανά και την ΦιΣ. Για μένα το σημαντικό είναι να
μπούμε στη Βουλή. Και θα εξηγήσω γιατί το λέω αυτό: Νομίζω ότι άτομα σαν τον κ.
Μάνο θα πρέπει να είναι στη Βουλή. Από τη μια έχει παράγει έργο και από την
άλλη λέει τα πράγματα με το όνομά τους. Αυτό ήταν που με έκανε να υποστηρίξω τη
ΔΡΑΣΗ ευθύς εξ αρχής. Το κόμμα απευθύνεται στη λογική των ψηφοφόρων και δεν
κάνει πολιτική συνθημάτων. Θα πρέπει σιγά-σιγά να αρχίσουμε να αλλάζουμε τις πολιτικές
μας συνήθειες και να λέμε αλήθειες. Τα παραμύθια τελείωσαν. Το καταλαβαίνουμε
γιατί τώρα ζούμε τον εφιάλτη. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";"> Το εκλογικό σώμα, εμείς όλοι μας δηλαδή, θα
πρέπει να διασφαλίσουμε και να διασφαλίζουμε από εδώ και πέρα ότι στη Βουλή δεν
θα μπαίνουν μόνο οι επαγγελματίες πολιτικοί αλλά και άτομα με όραμα και λίγο
ρομαντισμό αν θέλετε, ότι μπορεί να αλλάξουν τον κόσμο. Έτσι θα κάνουμε βήματα
μπροστά, ακόμη κι αν για κάθε δύο βήματα μπροστά αντιστοιχεί και ένα βήμα πίσω.
Πρέπει κάποτε σε αυτή τη χώρα να
ξεκινήσουμε.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";"> Ξέρω ότι υπάρχει πόλωση, όλοι φοβούνται την
ακυβερνησία. Όμως ας επηρεαστούν προς τα κάτω τα κόμματα του τσαμπουκά και όχι
τα κόμματα της λογικής. Τα κόμματα της λογικής πρέπει κάθε φορά να βρίσκονται
στη Βουλή και να αυξάνουν και τη δύναμή τους αν θέλουμε να ξεκινήσουμε και να
φτάσουμε σε μια Ελλάδα που δεν θα μας κάνει να ντρεπόμαστε. Ας μην
επικαλούμαστε τους αρχαίους μας προγόνους, Ας τους μοιάσουμε. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Και μια κριτική βιβλίου. A Review for Verdery's "What was socialism and what comes next?"<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Με όλη αυτή την καταιγίδα
πληροφοριών και μηνυμάτων τις τελευταίες μέρες νομίζω ότι έχουμε ζαλιστεί
εντελώς. Όλοι φοβούνται την επόμενη μέρα αλλά δεν ξέρουν και τι να κάνουν.
Κανείς δεν ξέρει ποια θα είναι η καλύτερη λύση στο πρόβλημα.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Γνώμη μου είναι ότι φτάσαμε
ως εδώ γιατί πάψαμε να σκεφτόμαστε εδώ και χρόνια. Να έχουμε κριτική σκέψη και
ανοιχτό μυαλό. Σας έχω πει ότι κάνω ένα μεταπτυχιακό στο Διεθνές Πανεπιστήμιο
εδώ στη Θεσσαλονίκη σχετικό με τις χώρες της Μαύρης Θάλασσας. Τα καλά του να
συνεχίζεις να σπουδάζεις σε μεγαλύτερη ηλικία είναι πάρα πολλά. ‘Ένα από αυτά
είναι ότι έρχεσαι σε επαφή με νέους και βλέπεις πως σκέπτονται. Είμαι υπέρ των
νέων αλλά δεν τους δικαιώνω σε όλα. Το μειονέκτημα για αυτούς είναι ότι συνήθως
συνεχίζουν τις σπουδές τους για να έχουν ένα χαρτί παραπάνω καθώς αγωνίζονται
να βρουν δουλειά. Οι γνώσεις που αποκτούν είναι μέχρι τις εξετάσεις. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Εμένα που είμαι σε
μεγαλύτερη ηλικία, παρότι καλό θα ήταν να με βοηθήσει αυτό το χαρτί για να κάνω
περισσότερη έρευνα, που μου αρέσει πολύ, συγχρόνως η μελέτη με βοηθάει να
αναπτύσσω την κριτική μου σκέψη.

Ο
τίτλος είναι λίγο παραπλανητικός δεν μιλάει για τον σοσιαλισμό της Δύσης αλλά
για τον πρώην υπαρκτό σοσιαλισμό και μάλιστα όπως αυτός εφαρμόστηκε στη
Ρουμανία. Είναι μια ματιά εκ του σύνεγγυς στη λειτουργία του υπαρκτού
σοσιαλισμού, στους λόγους που κατέρρευσε, αλλά και στην περίοδο μετάβασης από
την παλαιά κατάσταση στη νέα που η Δύση πιστεύει ότι θα είναι η Δημοκρατία όπως
τουλάχιστον την αντιλαμβάνεται αυτή (η Δύση εννοώ).<o:p></o:p></span></div>

τους ορίζοντες μας και αντιλαμβανόμασταν ότι δεν είμαστε μόνοι μας σε αυτόν τον
πλανήτη και μαθαίναμε λίγο από τις εμπειρίες των άλλων θα ήμασταν σε καλύτερη θέση να αντιμετωπίσουμε τα
προβλήματά μας. Δεν θα θεωρούμασταν εύκολος στόχος και δεν θα μας βομβάρδιζαν με
όλη αυτήν την πληροφορία. Κατ’ αρχήν δεν θα είχαμε φτάσει ως εδώ. Δεν θα είχαμε
αφήσει τον εαυτό μας λεία στον κάθε
τυχάρπαστο πολιτικό. Δεν θα είχαμε
αρκεστεί στα ψίχουλα που μας πρόσφεραν για να μας κλείνουν τα μάτια. Ακόμη και
αν η πλειοψηφία το έκανε θα υπήρχε ένα μεγάλο υγιές κομμάτι πληθυσμού που θα
ήταν αντίβαρο και κάποιες φορές θα κέρδιζε τη μάχη της λογικής παρασύροντας,
για καλό και τους υπόλοιπους. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">This volume is a
collection of various articles or lectures that were written, presented or
published between 1988 and 1994. As the author herself states her interest in
Marxism did not precede her research in Romania but rather emerged from
it. She wanted to examine what life
there would be like and not to criticize either of the systems, the Marxism or
the capitalism. She came to know Marxism through its institutionalized and
propagandizing ways in Romanian media and in her fieldwork. The writer is of
the opinion that although Soviet Union belongs to the past is worthy to be
studied for several, both practical and academic reasons. It is a way to deeply
understand the present of the region.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">A variety of questions
and fundamental issues are on stake here such as property restitution, privatization,
decollectivization, gender differences and unresolved nationalism. All these issues
are shown through the lens of everyday people in daily life. No easy answers
are provided. On the contrary she proposes that more ethnographic research is
needed in order to understand how the communist past is affecting the present
and is going to affect the future of the former soviet nations. In the meantime
it is necessary, she suggests, for the anthropologists to avoid assessments for
the outcome of this process.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">The book is
consisted of lectures and papers written and presented by the author between
1992 and 1994. They are based on ethnographic field research that was held
either before the collapse of Communism in 1989 or immediately after it. Also
it is grounded on Romanian press between the years 1992 through September 1994.
Particularly for the subject of the 7<sup>th </sup> chapter the author mentions that questioned
people while she was studying the reinstate of the realty in Romania.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">In chapter 1 we
find the theoretical model of socialism. An analysis to the point of socialism’s
structure as a theory and not as a real manifestation is given. Verdery
believes that U.S.A. and the West had a wrong image of Communism as an
uncompromising totalitarian regime. On the contrary elements of resistance and
hidden forms of sabotage are described briefly that according to the author
contributed a lot to the final collapse of the regime. Socialism is described as
a fragile centralized system of organized shortages which initiated a vicious
circle of bribes and favors. In the minds of the workers also a consciousness
was formed that Party bosses were exploiting the workers and so the workers
worked as little as they could, thus undermining in yet another way the
socialist regimes. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">In a rather
sarcastic way under the subtitle <i>Surveillance
and Paternalistic Redistribution </i>describes the counter act of the regime to
this consciousness by the “production system” of Secret Police which she takes
form the memoirs of Romanian political prisoner Herbert Zilber. Socialist
paternalism, promises that the Party will meet the needs like a father does.
She emphasizes the difference between the inner logic of socialism in
comparison to capitalism. Socialism aims redistribution of products as a mean
of soothing the opposition to the regime whereas Capitalism aims profit. Towards
the end of the first chapter Verdery gives a very well documented and
interesting personal opinion of the reasons of socialisms’ collapse. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">In the 2<sup>nd</sup>
chapter the nature of time is discussed. In the personal view of the writer the
Romanians were deprived of the control over their personal time. Ceauᶊescu in
his effort to pay back ahead of schedule the foreign debt, that he considered toxic,
he took austerity measures. To eliminate
the expected popular opposition augmented the monitoring and repression
apparatus. She offers examples of how the regime even inspected the citizens on
how many pigs they would breed and how much goods they could plant in their
plot. Shortages of certain items were converted into a seizure of citizens’
time as they had to wait endless hours in food lines like <i>immobilized</i> bodies. Fuel shortages and other scarcities in Romania
made the irregularity a norm.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">Verdery claims
that the <i>Etatization</i> of time even
altered the definition of self for people of Romania as it altered the rituals
of the people and tried to create the new socialist man. She refers in
Zerubavel to suggest that the rhythms of socialist holy days that were secular
ones kept people off balance and undermined the sense of normal. Uncertainty
was the rule of the state. According to her, people were so furious for the
usurpation of their time by the regime and of the deprivation of
self-determination that they manifested their hatred towards the regime during and
after the overthrow of Ceauᶊescu.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">In the 3d
chapter Verdery handles the subject of Gender and Nation in Contemporary East
Europe. Firstly she states that this subject was not her field until she was
asked to submit a paper for a conference which was about gender and nationalism
and was carried out in Bellagio in July 1992 by Catherine Hall (feminist
historian) and Judith Walkowitz (historian). She firstly explains her idea of
“gender” and “nation”. Then she explains the socialistic patterns of gender and
nation. She concludes the chapter by mentioning the consequences of these two
patterns <a href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=30322958" name="_GoBack"></a>after the collapse of socialism in certain
Eastern European countries such as Romania, Hungary, Poland and Croatia.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">Chapter 4 touches
a dramatic consequence of the end of Communism. This was the immediate
emergence of national movements. This came as a surprise even to the Communist
Parties leaders. Verdery presents examples from secondary literature about
countries such as Slovenia, Croatia, Slovakia and other Soviet republics and of
course about Romania. She argues that we cannot consider this phenomenon only
as the reappearance of ‘ancient’ animosities but rather than as a result of a
number of causes, different from one country to another. Some of the causes
that are mentioned are historical, other lie on political organization and
ethnicity mechanisms used by the Party. She gives examples of the later from
Transylvania. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">In chapter 5
terms such as Civil Society, Nation and Europe are used as ideological factors
rather than realities. She illustrates using some study cases that in Romania these
terms were welcomed, as the 1992 election outcome showed, by high-educated
people, whereas in the rural areas, together with Transylvania, the Party of
Romanian National Unity was more successful. It becomes obvious that for the
rural population of Romania ‘Europe’ is not such an appealing idea. In contrast
to what some people believed that would happen after the fall of Ceauᶊescu’s
regime the symbol of ‘nation’ remained powerful. The idea of the nation has
been so strengthened that it affects also political agendas.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">Her observation
of the redistribution of the land in Transylvanian village Aurel Vlaicu is the
base of the 6<sup>th</sup> chapter. She emphasizes a lot on the elasticity of
the redistributed surface due to many legislative vacuums and peculiarities
which led to restitution for some but deprivation for others. In this chapter Verdery
points out that Romania as well as other former Communist countries, tried to
remove a substantial amount of their Communist history as if it had never
existed. For this reason they fell back to their past in order to feel secure
and to have a perspective to their route towards their future. An objection
here would be that the writer overanalyzes the subject of earth distribution.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">A good effort is
made in chapter 7 to convey the frenzy about the Caritas pyramid scheme.
Actually is pointed out that those schemes are breaded in many parts of the world,
even in U.S.A. in the 30s, everywhere people are desperate and panicked because
of the economic situation. The consequences of the fall of Caritas are yet to
be reckoned as they will be affecting the population in many ways for the years
to come. At the end of this chapter there is a thought provoking quotation from
Brâncoveanu: “The bosses of the mutual-aid games have intuited and speculate
upon this inclination of the masses to risk in the name of a better future.”<a href="file:///C:/Users/%CE%9A%CE%B1%CF%84%CE%B5%CF%81%CE%AF%CE%BD%CE%B1/Downloads/VERDERIREVIEW_PLIAKI_18042012.docx#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">[1]</span></span></span></a><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">In chapter 8
Verdery elaborates more on the subject of redistribution of property rights to
show that this contributes to the transformation of politics and state power in
Romania. It is based on ethnographic data of her field research as well as on
secondary literature. She speaks about privatization as a term representing an
emblem that opened the doors to power, legalized governments and attracted external
aid. It is thought that those who profited by the privatization were the elite
of the apparatus of the Party as they had inside information and relations with
foreign companies and thus more knowledge of the business practices in the
West.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">She refers also
to the privatization of power where she speaks metaphorically of a parallel to
feudalism. She uses the word “mafia” because as it is explained this is the
term used by people. It was claimed by a lot that corruption after the fall of
socialism was worse than in Ceauᶊescu days and that in local level the whole
system was laying down to mafia. A contradictory idea of diminishing the state
but in the same time restructuring it is also presented in this chapter. This
process will, according to the author, result to deferent type of states in
each case.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">In the last part
of the book the Afterword some very interesting thoughts are arisen by the use
of the sayings of Tony Kushner’s invented Oldest Living Bolshevik. “The snake
sheds its skin only when a new skin is ready…without his skin he…die. Have you,
my little serpents, a new skin? Then we dare not, we cannot move ahead”. (229)
So the need for new theories is discussed in this conclusion.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">What Was
Socialism and What Comes Next?, is a well written book. Verdery substantiate
her position with arguments and documents. It seems also to be a prolific
anthropologist expert on Romanian matters. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">An objection
would be the tittle of the book which is very general and may lead the potential
reader to false expectations. The title implies a more general approach to
socialism either in Leninist theory or to the socialism as an economic system.
The title would rather help the reader know what to expect. Also in some cases
it seems like a contradiction when from the one side she claims no socialist
country was ‘typical’ because it had its own specificities and on others
generalizes her conclusions. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">The reader
either scholar or student would better regard this book as a study case of a former
socialist country. Verdery does a creditable
job of investigation of a socialist society and the process of its transition. After
an explanation of the function of socialism and the consequences of this
function to the citizens she deals with the transition taking place after 1989.
An asset of the book is the abundance of the notes at the end of the book which
prove not only a thorough but also a well-grounded research. So this book presents a thought provoking
research which may lead to other studies on socialistic and post-socialistic
countries. It arouses questions that would create different approaches in the
close examination of several countries of the former Soviet bloc. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
