1 | Democracy in the Mediterranean Countries as part of the 15th Annual International Conference on Mediterranean Studies Academic Responsible: Dr. Gregory T. Papanikos, President, ATINER. Democracy is applied everywhere; from a small village and tribe assembly, from a small city council, from a small city-state to megapolis, large nations and unions of them; from a small trade union to large federations of trade unions; from a small family business to large associations and conglomerates. Even anarchists assembly together and elect (?) their archons (spokespersons)! Millions of people are involved in seeking to represent specific groups of people and billions are involved in electing them. | Abstract Submitting Form |
