DECAEXASELIDO II constitutes the second publication of its kind by the cultural and research organization THE TEΛΟΣ SOCIETY.
The title DECAEXASELIDO refers to the fundamental editorial unit of a standard sixteen-page print publication. Within the framework of an open call, researchers and scholars were invited to submit abstracts of dissertations and research projects that investigate aspects of culture in Greece.
Through this second edition, THE TEΛΟΣ SOCIETY seeks to foster a plurality of voices and contribute to a substantive and critical dialogue on the water landscapes of Greece and Cyprus: their arteries, histories, infrastructures, and political formations. The edition explores water not only as a natural resource, but as a cultural, social, and political force that has shaped territories, communities, economies, and collective memories across the region. At the same time, it recognizes and supports researchers as authors in their fields of expertise, while conferring institutional and scholarly recognition upon their work and advancing critical approaches to the evolving relations between water, society, and place.
This second edition includes four sixteen-page contributions:
Christina Papadaki, Agricultural Engineer | Research Specialist
“Flow, The Orchestrator of Life”, 2026
Stavroula Michael, PhD Architectural History and Theory | Researcher | Adjunct Lecturer
“The Two "Cyprus Problems": Water, Conflict, and Infrastructure ”, 2026
Maria Vamvoukaki, Archaeologist | Heritage Consultant
“The Cultural Landscape of Ilissos: Archaeology, Sustainability, and the Narrative Reconstruction of the Ruined Topography”, 2026
Evgenia Tsianou, Environmental Scientist | Science Communicator
“Killing the Dragon: Water as a common good in practice”, 2026
THE TEΛΟΣ SOCIETY extends its sincere gratitude to all researchers and scholars who submitted their perceptive and insightful studies, thereby contributing significantly to the enrichment of dialogue on culture.
Special thanks are also addressed to the review committee for their dedication, critical perspective, and their selfless, voluntary participation in the process.
