MODERN GREEK HISTORY AND CULTURE
The Status of the Aegean Sea
According to International LawAngelos Syrigos
All relations between states are characterized either by their conformity to codes of conduct, the most widely accepted of which is what has come to be known as international law, or by force (or the threat of its use).
The Aegean Sea, a key waterway not only between states, but also between regions and continents, is an area where the commitment of states to lawful behavior presently is being tested. Interests, not only of the nations contiguous to the Aegean, but also of the major players on the world stage, will be affected (as they have been through history) by the way disputes relating to this sea's status are resolved or otherwise played out.
It is not an exaggeration to note that the stability of the international system may be profoundly affected by this outcome.
In this book Angelos Syrigos, a Greek scholar and jurist, outlines the status of key legal issues relating to the Aegean Sea. Syrigos's exhaustive treatment provides the background of the treaties and decisions that constitute the limits of international law in that setting.
Contrary to perceptions cultivated in the press and elsewhere, most Aegean issues are quite clearly defined, while very few are the subject of serious legal controversy.
The Status of the Aegean Sea According to International Law therefore should provide a handbook not only for legal practitioners but also for policy professionals and scholars. As such it should become a guide for those in the international community who reject the use of force in the resolution of disputes, but who seek instead to reinforce the stability of the international system by resolving them through recourse to existing legal foundations.Angelos Syrigos is a legal scholar and practicing attorney based in Athens. He contributes regularly to scholarly periodicals and to more general publications on subjects relating to international law and policy studies.

Founded on Freedom and Virtue
Documents Illustrating American Support of the Greek War of Independence
1821-1829Edited by C. G. Hatzidimitriou
For Greeks who rebelled seeking their independence from the Ottoman Empire, the United States provided a model for a republican constitutional polity. Early Greek parliamentary bodies, seeking to create constitutional documents, actively sought advice and other support from American political bodies and intellectuals.
The response in the United States to the efforts of the Greeks to free themselves was enthusiastic. Once information reached the young republic on the motivations of the Greeks and the brutality of the Turkish response, prominent men such as Thomas Jefferson, James Monroe, Daniel Webster, Henry Clay, Albert Gallatin, the French hero of the American revolution Lafayette, the young congressman Sam Houston, and many others, were moved to speak and to act in support of Greek independence.
Founded on Freedom and Virtue is a collection of contemporary official and unofficial documents tracing the various currents of the American response.

Culture, Identity, Politics
Edited by Christos P. Ioannides
The book takes its title from a pioneering conference that was organized by the Speros Basil Vryonis Center for the Study of Hellenism, co-sponsored by the Hellenic Studies Forum, Melbourne, Australia, in cooperation with the Hellenic Studies Institute of South Australia, Adelaide and the Humanities Department of California State University, Sacramento. It was held in Sacramento in 1994.
The essays gathered in this volume cover a broad range of subjects and are grouped under the following themes: Greek ethnicity and culture in English-speaking countries; Hellenism and Greek Orthodoxy in the diaspora-toward convergence or divergence; education and Greek identity; Greek diaspora women in the1990s-beyond the kale noikokyra (good housewife) image; linkages between the diaspora and Greece; the sense of "Greekness" in literature and the arts among the diaspora Greeks; politics and the diaspora.
The latter category covers the following sub-themes: the Cyprus and Macedonian issues and diaspora political activism; Greeks in politics in the U. S.and Australia.

Hellenism: Ancient, Mediaeval, Modern, 24The Greeks in the United States
Theodore Saloutos
Originally published in 1964, this book was the first comprehensive and balanced study of Greek immigrants. A work of impeccable scholarship, the book is based on a thorough examination of archives, newspapers, and other important sources.
The author begins with a description of the political, cultural and social conditions in Greece which led to the migration of thousands. He examines their experiences in their new country and explores their attempts to adjust to a new and different culture. The effect of two world wars and the erosion of Hellenic sentiment are among the themes examined in this ground-breaking book.

The Transformation of Occupied Cyprus into a Turkish ProvinceChristos P. Ioannides
"A meticulous culling of information illustrating the systematic Turkish colonization of the areas of Cyprus that have been under its occupation since the invasion of 1974 . . . The major conclusion of the book is that Turkification, under the tutelage of the Turkish military, has severely undermined the autonomy of Turkish Cypriots and may well destroy their distinctive identity, thereby eliminating any serious possibility of reuniting the divided island republic . . . In Turkey's Image is an unusually formidable contribution by a fine Greek Cypriot scholar . . ."
