About me

Introduction Despite the fact that my undergraduate studies are related to the sciences field (BSc in electronics engineering) I studied Social Anthropology and History at the University of Aegean in Greece where I also completed my postgraduate programme. I hold a PhD in History from the University of Johannesburg in South Africa. In 2016, I was awarded the medal of St. Marc from the Patriarchate of Alexandria. My research interests focuses on the study of the Hellenic presence in Africa. I specialize in the research of social and economic life of Greeks and their interaction with the native population of Africa as well as the process of construction of their cultural and national identity. My interests also include the consequences of post-colonialism in the lives of Greek and native communities of Africa, in accordance with the influence of geopolitical changes in the economic and politic status of African countries. I have published 11 monographies and several peer-reviewed articles.
