In 2000, I briefly corresponded with Margarita Papandreou, seeking her permission to use extracts from her personal correspondence, which I had come across in my own research. I still possess those letters. In the first, Margarita (first name used to distinguish her from other Papandreous) gave me permission to quote her. In a second letter, she invited me to call on her on my next trip through Greece. While that call was never made, I recall being pleasantly surprised by her warmth and generosity — clearly a sign of unpretentiousness by a former first lady who was willing to give time to someone she did not know. Her personal memoir, Love and Power: A Midwestern First Lady, appears to confirm this character trait and sheds light on the complexity of one of Greece’s most politically active and longestserving first ladies since the fall of the Greek dictatorship. A memoir of her public and private life, the book focuses on Margarita’s work as a feminist within Greece, her activism internationally, and her personal life, especially her marriage to Andreas Papandreou and subsequent divorce. Margarita’s work as an activist in the Greek women’s movement began when she and Andreas returned to Athens after the fall of the military dictatorship. There, she founded the Women’s Union of Greece (EGE), the first and, at the time, only grassroots organization for women in the country. In her book, Margarita chronicles EGE as well as her own work to revise the Greek family code and to legalize abortion in Greece. Particularly interesting is her account of the closed-door meeting she and other leading EGE members had with Archbishop Seraphim of Athens, when they endeavored to persuade the archbishop on the issue of abortion. Her memoir is full of such interesting
2000年,我与玛格丽塔•帕潘德里欧(Margarita Papandreou)进行了简短的通信,请求她允许我使用我在自己的研究中偶然发现的她的私人通信摘录。那些信我还留着。在第一封信中,玛格丽塔(玛格丽塔的名字用来区别于其他帕潘德里欧家族成员)允许我引用她的话。在第二封信中,她邀请我下次去希腊旅行时去拜访她。虽然那个电话从未打过,但我记得她的热情和慷慨让我感到惊喜——显然,这是一位愿意为陌生人付出时间的前第一夫人的谦逊表现。她的个人回忆录《爱与权力:一位中西部第一夫人》(Love and Power: A midwest First Lady)似乎证实了这一性格特征,并揭示了这位自希腊独裁政权倒台以来政治上最活跃、任职时间最长的第一夫人之一的复杂性。这本书是玛格丽塔公共和私人生活的回忆录,主要讲述了她作为希腊女权主义者的工作,她在国际上的激进主义,以及她的个人生活,特别是她与安德烈亚斯·帕潘德里欧的婚姻和随后的离婚。当玛格丽塔和安德烈亚斯在军事独裁政权垮台后回到雅典时,她开始了作为希腊妇女运动活动家的工作。在那里,她创立了希腊妇女联盟(EGE),这是希腊第一个也是当时唯一的基层妇女组织。在她的书中,玛格丽塔记录了EGE以及她自己修改希腊家庭法和使希腊堕胎合法化的工作。特别有趣的是,她描述了她和其他EGE主要成员与雅典大主教塞拉芬举行的闭门会议,当时他们努力说服大主教在堕胎问题上。她的回忆录充满了这样的有趣

The Gates of Greece: Refugees and Policy Choices 希腊之门:难民与政策选择
Pub Date : 2016-06-01 DOI: 10.1215/10474552-3618072

Abstract:The scale of the migrant crisis took Europe by surprise in 2015, but 2016 promised to be far worse. Europe dithered on how to respond, confusing the demands of compassion with migrant relocation policy and failing to recognize Greece’s inability to resolve the crisis independently. Pioneering academic work on refugees and assimilation limns the essential choices policy makers have: (1) throw open the gates to Europe and hope new Muslims citizens will eventually assimilate, (2) exclude Muslim immigrants and try to subordinate Islamic beliefs to European norms for those already in Europe, or (3) test whether Islamic countries are able and willing to support the current international liberal order, including freedom of conscience on matters of faith. Greece’s current weakness means it will have to accommodate whatever choice European leaders make.
摘要:2015年,移民危机的规模让欧洲大吃一惊,但2016年的情况似乎要糟糕得多。欧洲在如何应对的问题上犹豫不决,将同情的要求与移民重新安置政策混为一谈,也没有认识到希腊没有能力独立解决危机。关于难民和同化的开创性学术工作,明确了政策制定者的基本选择:(1)打开通往欧洲的大门,希望新的穆斯林公民最终能被同化;(2)排斥穆斯林移民,并试图将伊斯兰信仰从属于已经在欧洲的人的欧洲规范;或者(3)检验伊斯兰国家是否能够并愿意支持当前的国际自由秩序,包括信仰问题上的良心自由。希腊目前的疲软意味着它将不得不适应欧洲领导人做出的任何选择。

Abstract:This essay seeks to explain the source and magnitude of change in Turkish foreign policy during Turgut Ozal’s premiership. In doing so, it employs theoretical studies on foreign policy change and the role of the leader in such processes. The essay argues that Prime Minister Ozal assumed the role of the authoritative leader in Turkey’s foreign policy decision making, which was the main source of change in that period’s foreign policy. Further, it demonstrates that during the period from 1983 until 1989 there were changes in the level of effort as well as shifts in the methods and aims of Turkish foreign policy. Nevertheless, this period did not witness any comprehensive or fundamental changes at the level of international orientation.
摘要:本文旨在解释图尔古特·厄扎尔担任总理期间土耳其外交政策变化的来源和幅度。在此过程中,它采用了关于外交政策变化和领导人在这一过程中的作用的理论研究。本文认为,厄扎尔总理在土耳其外交政策决策中承担了权威领导人的角色,这是该时期外交政策变化的主要来源。此外,它还表明,在1983年至1989年期间,土耳其外交政策的努力程度发生了变化,方法和目标也发生了变化。然而,这一时期在国际方向方面没有发生任何全面或根本的变化。

Reading the Memoirs: Some Notes on Turkish Soldiers’ Political Thoughts 读回忆录:关于土耳其士兵政治思想的一些笔记

Abstract:The military’s attitude toward the political realm is problematic in Turkey. While, on the one hand, it accepts the notion of civilian control, on the other hand, it has sometimes exercised tutelary functions or overtly intervened in politics. This essay argues that political thoughts of soldiers have an explanatory power in understanding this dilemma. It examines a set of more than 150 life narratives written by soldiers. Memoirs, autobiographies, and journals are relatively convenient means through which to explain one’s personal thoughts. An elaboration on those texts suggests that soldiers have an ambivalent perception of the political realm, and this serves as a basis for the legitimization of their political actions. The implicit idea that they are the ultimate guardians of the country is embedded in the fact that they are respectful of democracy and are in favor of civilian control in their discourses.
摘要:土耳其军方对政治领域的态度存在问题。一方面,它接受文职人员控制的概念,另一方面,它有时行使保护职能或公开干预政治。本文认为军人的政治思想对理解这一困境具有解释力。这本书考察了150多本由士兵撰写的生活叙事。回忆录、自传和日记是解释个人思想的相对方便的方式。对这些文本的阐述表明,士兵对政治领域有一种矛盾的看法,这是他们政治行动合法化的基础。他们是国家的最终守护者,这一隐含的想法根植于这样一个事实:他们尊重民主,支持文官控制他们的话语。

Abstract:Since its demise, the Ottoman Empire has been repeatedly reinvented. This essay traces the diverse and often unexpected ways that Ottoman history has served divergent political agendas over the past century, exploring the empire’s progression from religious to secular to pious and from multicultural to Turkish to tolerant.

Europe and Its Seas in the Twenty-First Century 21世纪的欧洲及其海洋
Pub Date : 2016-03-01 DOI: 10.1215/10474552-3488038
Magnus Nordenman
While Europe is normally viewed through the prism of the great Eurasian landmass, the continent is absolutely dependent on the global maritime domain for commerce, resources, energy extraction, and security. Today Europe faces a number of maritime challenges, ranging from uncontrolled immigration across the Mediterranean to a newly assertive Russia that expresses its ambitions at sea. Europe has so far not formulated a comprehensive approach to the maritime domain and has responded to challenges in a reactionary fashion. Europe must now, however, devise strategies and approaches that can help safeguard European interests at sea.
虽然欧洲通常是通过大欧亚大陆的棱镜来看待的,但欧洲大陆在商业、资源、能源开采和安全方面绝对依赖于全球海洋领域。如今,欧洲面临着许多海上挑战,从地中海地区不受控制的移民,到新近表现出在海上野心的自信的俄罗斯。到目前为止,欧洲还没有对海洋领域制定一个全面的办法,并以一种反动的方式对各种挑战作出反应。然而,欧洲现在必须制定有助于维护欧洲海上利益的战略和方法。

The Mediterranean’s Future in an Age of Uncertainty 地中海在不确定时代的未来
Pub Date : 2016-03-01 DOI: 10.1215/10474552-3488027
Peter O. Engelke
As tempting as it is to forecast the Mediterranean’s future through the bleak lens of its present, it is unwise to do so. Over and again throughout history, writing the future through the linear extrapolation of contemporary trends has proven foolish. This essay identifies the most critical socioeconomic, political, ecological, and geopolitical drivers of change that together will shape the Mediterranean’s future. It analyzes the possible impacts of three major trends (demographic imbalance, ongoing empowerment, and rising natural resource stresses) and three critical uncertainties (the future of collective identity, the role of distant global powers, and economic turbulence).
通过地中海暗淡的现状来预测它的未来是诱人的,但这样做是不明智的。纵观历史,通过对当代趋势的线性推断来预测未来的做法一次又一次地被证明是愚蠢的。本文确定了最关键的社会经济、政治、生态和地缘政治变化驱动因素,这些因素将共同塑造地中海的未来。报告分析了三个主要趋势(人口失衡、持续赋权和自然资源压力上升)和三个关键的不确定性(集体认同的未来、遥远的全球大国的作用和经济动荡)可能产生的影响。

From Karamanlis to Tsipras: The Greek Debt Crisis through Historical and Political Perspectives 从卡拉曼利斯到齐普拉斯:历史与政治视角下的希腊债务危机
Pub Date : 2016-03-01 DOI: 10.1215/10474552-3488049
G. Bistis
The year 2015 started with a great promise for austerity- harmed people in Greece, but within a few months the promise began to fade as reality sunk in. It was a year that the Coalition of the Radical Left (SYRIZA) achieved a historic electoral triumph in Greece. SYRIZA came to power promising to end the austerity era. However, from its first days in office, the new government realized that keeping this promise would be a far greater challenge than winning the election. Cancelation of the austerity measures required renegotiation of Greece’s bailout loans, loans that were conditional on Greece’s implementation of these measures. Given that the European lenders had their reasons for setting things up this way, it was not long before Greece’s strong anti- austerity drive set the country on a collision course with the eurozone. The negotiations between the two sides are examined in this essay through the perspective of Greece’s half- century- long relationship with the European Union and against a backdrop of personal observations and comment, relevant public sentiments, and critical events defining each period discussed.
2015年伊始,希腊政府做出了巨大的紧缩承诺,但几个月后,随着现实的深入,这一承诺开始褪色。这一年,激进左翼联盟(SYRIZA)在希腊的选举中取得了历史性的胜利。激进左翼联盟上台时承诺结束紧缩时代。然而,从上任的第一天起,新政府就意识到,履行这一承诺将是比赢得选举更大的挑战。取消紧缩措施需要重新谈判希腊的救助贷款,这些贷款的条件是希腊实施这些措施。鉴于欧洲各银行如此安排自有其理由,不久之后,希腊强烈的反紧缩运动就使该国走上了与欧元区发生冲突的道路。本文通过希腊与欧盟长达半个世纪的关系,以及个人观察和评论、相关公众情绪和确定每个时期讨论的关键事件的背景,对双方之间的谈判进行了审查。

Urban Renewal Projects and Democratic Capacities of Citizens 城市更新项目与公民的民主能力
Pub Date : 2016-03-01 DOI: 10.1215/10474552-3488071
Sultan Tepe
Many of the urban renewal projects (URPs) in consolidating democracies are not market- led projects but rather projects initiated by the state and implemented by the private sector. Promising to improve urban poor regions with URPs poses unique challenges and opportunities to residents, yet their microfoundations and the impact on citizens remain largely unexplored. Tracing the ways in which state, economic, and individual factors interact in two drastically different URPs in Istanbul, this resident- centered approach highlights two contradictory patterns: (1) citizens’ increasing dependency on the central government and reluctance to protest and (2) the exigency to raise land- based demands beyond the confines of elections. Together these introduce URP residents as a new critical urban force in their respective democracies.
巩固民主的许多城市更新项目(urp)不是市场主导的项目,而是由国家发起并由私营部门实施的项目。通过urp改善城市贫困地区的承诺给居民带来了独特的挑战和机遇,但其微观基础和对公民的影响在很大程度上仍未得到探索。在伊斯坦布尔的两个截然不同的urp中,追踪国家、经济和个人因素相互作用的方式,这种以居民为中心的方法突出了两种矛盾的模式:(1)公民对中央政府的依赖日益增加,不愿抗议;(2)迫切需要在选举范围之外提出基于土地的要求。这些共同介绍了URP居民作为各自民主国家新的关键城市力量。

Egypt, Ethiopia, and the Nile River: The Continuing Dispute 埃及、埃塞俄比亚和尼罗河:持续的争论
Pub Date : 2016-03-01 DOI: 10.1215/10474552-3488082
F. Lawson
Recent studies of Egypt’s long- standing dispute with Ethiopia over the distribution of the waters of the Nile River assume that the adoption of the Nile Basin Initiative in 1999 heralded a sharp turn toward regional conciliation and harmony. This assumption is unwarranted, given Cairo’s insistence that its “historic rights” to the Nile be preserved and the belligerent response by Egyptian politicians to Ethiopia’s inauguration of the Millennium Project in the spring of 2013. A careful survey of recent relations between the two states demonstrates that the dispute retains a high potential for severe conflict.
最近对埃及与埃塞俄比亚在尼罗河水域分配问题上的长期争端的研究认为,1999年尼罗河流域倡议的通过预示着地区和解与和谐的急剧转变。鉴于开罗方面坚持其对尼罗河的“历史权利”应得到保护,以及埃及政界人士对埃塞俄比亚2013年春季启动的千年计划(Millennium Project)的好战反应,这种假设是没有根据的。对两国近期关系的仔细调查表明,这一争端极有可能引发严重冲突。
