| Résumé anglais |
Mountain areas are a safeguard for authentic values which link modern Greece with antiquity. They are a source of refuge for populations and civilisation. In theses areas resistance against the Turks was organised. Following indépendance central government considered mountainous regions as an obstacle to modernisation and to the exercise of its authority. After the First World War, these regions were studied by agronomists as birthplaces for social systems of production (nomadic populations or transhumance). Then historians sought to study the real functionning of mountainous societies (as opposed to a mythical view) through different periods of history. Today rural depopulation, changes to pastoral activities and tourism development give a new image to Greek mountains. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
