On a Society Increasingly Turning Fascistic: The Exploitation of the Pandemic by the Republic of Cyprus

This article was originally published in Greek on this blogspot, on the 21st of November, 2020. The original Greek version can be found here . An update to this article was also published on the 4th of February, 2021. It can be found here .   The article attempts to present a summary of the ways that the Republic of Cyprus has been politically exploiting the covid-19 pandemic since February of 2020. With the employed measures and the conditions of the pandemic continuously changing, in parallel with the general dominance of misinformation, the article is an attempt to paint a more general picture in relation to the authoritarian approach that has been taken by the Cypriot state since the beginning of the pandemic. Its main focus is the documentation of the authoritarian policies that the state has 'legitimized' on the pretext of protecting public health; and which appear to have reached the level of general normalization within broader society.

«Ως δαμαί» οξά «ως δαμέ»; - Σπύρος Αρμοστής (Απρίλης 2021)

Άρθρα που δημοσιεύτηκαν στο Παράθυρο του Πολίτη τον Απρίλη του 2021. Μπορούν να εντοπιστούν στη μορφή που δημοσιεύτηκαν πατώντας εδώ (μέρος Α) και εδώ (Μέρος Β).   «Ως δαμαί» οξά «ως δαμέ»; Μέρος Α (19/04/2021) Τους τελευταίους μήνες παρατηρούμε το –πρωτόγνωρο για τα κυπριακά δεδομένα– φαινόμενο να μας απασχολεί στη δημόσια σφαίρα η ορθογράφηση μιας κυπριακής λέξης, και συγκεκριμένα της λέξης [ðamé] (θα χρησιμοποιώ την προφορά της λέξης στο Διεθνές Φωνητικό Αλφάβητο όταν αναφέρομαι στην ίδια τη λέξη ασχέτως ορθογράφησης). Αφορμή αποτέλεσαν οι πορείες διαμαρτυρίας του κινήματος «Ως Δαμέ», το οποίο αποτύπωσε στην ονομασία του το [ðamé] με έψιλον, γεγονός που προκάλεσε όχι μόνο διαδικτυακές συζητήσεις ανάμεσα σε απλό κόσμο, αλλά μέχρι και σχολιασμό από τον υπουργό Παιδείας. Αξίζει λοιπόν να ασχοληθούμε με το φαινόμενο – όχι από πολιτικής σκοπιάς, αλλά μέσα από γλωσσολογική ανάλυση. Πολλά μπορούν να γραφτούν για το θέμα, γι’ αυτό το ζήτημα αυτό έχει σπάσει σε δύο συνέχειες:...
