Water shortage in Thessaly was a problem known from the beginning of last century. The intention of solving the problem was stated by all the governments and the wider consensus of political parties.

Το άρθρο μελετά την εθνοτική διάσταση του Εμφυλίου πολε'μου επικεντρώνοντας σε μια περιοχή της βορειοδυτικής Ελλάδας. Ο βασικός στόχος είναι να διερευνηθεί πως οι διακριτές πολιτισμικές ομάδες της περιοχής Καστοριάς εντάχθηκαν στη γενικότερη σύγκρουση του ελληνικού εμφυλίου πολέμου και πως οι μεσοπολεμικές διενέξεις μεταξύ ντόπιων προσφύγων επέδρασαν στη διαμόρφωση των στρατοπέδων του Εμφυλίου πολέμου στην περιοχή. Μέσα από το τοπικό επίπεδο και την έρευνα σε βάθος μπορούμε να κατανοήσουμε τους λόγους που κρύβονται πίσω από τις συμμαχίες αυτών των πολιτισμικών ομάδων και να εξετάσουμε πώς η σύγκρουσή τους διασταυρώθηκε και δια- πλέχθηκε με τις συγκρουόμενες (σε πανελλήνιο, σε βαλκανικό αλλά και σε παγκόσμιο επίπεδο) πολιτικές (και, κατά δεύτερο λόγο, εθνικιστικές) ιδεολογίες.This study deals with the ethnic dimension of the Greek Civil War concentrating in an area of northwestern Macedonia. The main goal is to examine the entanglement of the distinct cultural groups of the area ...

The present dissertation approaches the law of civil costs, the litigation funding mechanisms, and the litigation fines in the Greek and international procedural order from a teleological and comparative point of view. The starting point of the teleological interpretation is the recording of the procedural principles, deriving from the inextricable link between the civil costs law and the concept of efficiency in the provision of legal protection (Αrt. 20 § 1 of the Greek Constitution and 6 § 1 ECHR). The comparative legal interpretation focuses on the systematic presentation and evaluation of the provisions of civil costs allocation in 40 jurisdictions in total, with particular emphasis placed on English, American, and German procedural law, aiming at valuable knowledge extraction and its transfer to the domestic civil procedural order. In the field of Greek civil costs law, the initial and final allocation of civil costs, the funding mechanisms of the civil trial, and the litigation fines are examined in detail, while simultaneously the problems faced by the Greek case law are highlighted and solutions are sought based on teleological weights and comparative legal approaches. Finally, the dissertation opens the scientific dialogue on the crucial issue of civil costs in cross-border disputes within the European Union, emphasizing the lack of systematic consolidation of the provisions for the award of civil costs in the European civil procedural law context.

The main aim of this study is the analytical portray of the demographic and economical data of the Prefecture of Hmathia. The demographic data, the social structure, the economic values as well as the development of these phenomena for a certain period of time are the analyzed data which are geographically described in this research. The application of this methodology has lead to the study and the export of the analyzed results of the prefecture of Hmathia. The primary data for the study derive from the National Statistic Service of Greece and refer mainly to the census of the registered population in the prefecture for the decade 1991-2001. As far as demographic data are concerned, the population, its evolution and its structure are presented through charts and tables when population indices aid at the recording of the ratio of ageing and the dependency rates. Moreover, the concentration-spreading is analyzed through Lorenz curves. As far as the economy is concerned, apart from the active and non-active population, the unemployment and employment rates, special reference is made to the analysis of the productive profile through triangular charts and Lebret figures. Finally, the mapping of the data has been materialized through Geographic Information Systems software so as to increase the accuracy of the inscribed information. The combination of the above aims to result in a complete recording of the prefecture's profile. In this way, a useful geographical tool for the development and special planning of a Prefecture or a specific area is developed.
