World Studies

For this simulation, you will be put in small groups. You will have
a variety of tasks to complete, and have to adhere strictly to the
rules of the game. (While these rules may not be entirely fair, it
should be fun and interesting to experience the dynamic of the
social structure.)

Rules
1. Men are responsible for all decision-making and work. (Boys
only participate in discussions or complete the daily work
tasks assigned. Boys turn in papers for the group, get
supplies, sharpen pencils, escort girls, etc. 10 points, 2 point
deduction every time not followed.)
2. Women must always be accompanied by a man when
entering and leaving the polis and the room. (All girls must
be escorted in and out of the room, to break, any time they
get up from their desk and move around, etc.
Deduct 2 points every time not followed.)
3. Women are responsible for the care of the home. (Girls are
responsible for making sure that the polis is kept clean and
tidy. They are to check and make sure each desk is neat on
the inside as well as the outside.
Deduct 2 points every time not followed.)
4. Women may not talk to members of the other polises. (Girls
are to be at home and cannot interact with other people
socially. Deduct 2 points every time not followed)

A total of 15 points are available each day- 10 for

work tasks and 5 for home tasks. Your group will
keep track of points on your points chart.

Greek lawmakers approve tough budget for 2014

By John Hadoulis (AFP) 1 day ago
Athens Greece's parliament approved a tough budget for next year, aimed at ending the
country's deep recession, despite continued differences on fiscal policy with the country's
international creditors.
The coalition government, which enjoys a narrow majority in the 300-seat chamber, scraped
through with 153 deputies backing the 2014 budget in a late evening vote.
The budget measures included a further 3.1 billion euros ($4.2 billion) in spending cuts from an
economy already suffering from successive austerity measures.
The move came as Greece's troika of international creditors -- the European Union, the European
Central Bank and the International Monetary Fund -- announced they had delayed until January
their next trip to Athens.
Senior auditors from the so-called creditor troika had been expected to return to Athens on
Monday to resume an evaluation of pledged Greek reforms.
The EU-ECB-IMF decision means talks on unblocking one billion euros in bailout funds are
postponed.
The budget approved by parliament foresees a return to growth for the embattled Greek
economy.
But earlier Saturday a spokesman for EU Economic Affairs Commissioner Olli Rehn said the
international negotiating team would not return to Athens until next month "after the authorities
have made further progress in implementation" of reforms demanded by Greece's creditors.
An agreement with the troika is necessary to unblock the one-billion-euro instalment of financial
aid pending since the summer.
Athens has been keen to wrap up the talks before it assumes the rotating EU presidency in
January.
The creditors and Athens disagree on the level of a forecasted financing gap for 2014 and the
measures that need to be taken to cover it.
Discussions are reportedly stumbling on the issue of a new property tax, debtor property
auctions, layoffs in the state sector and the slow pace of privatisation.

The government is under pressure from the troika to loosen a moratorium on home foreclosures
but such a measure is likely to be opposed by several ruling party lawmakers and could risk the
cohesion of the conservative-socialist coalition.
Greek Prime Minister Antonis Samaras stressed the positive in parliament, saying the country
had "achieved a number of reforms which many had considered impossible".
The changes made are "enormous," he said, citing fresh competitiveness and a drastic reduction
in the budget deficit.
He admitted discussions with the troika of creditors were difficult but said he was confident there
would be a satisfactory conclusion.
Greece's budget for 2014 has not yet been approved by the troika and could yet be amended in
the coming months with new austerity measures that the government has thus far rigorously
opposed.
As it stands the budget foresees a 0.6 percent growth in GDP for next year after six consecutive
years of recession. A four percent contraction is expected this year.
Alexis Tsipras, leader of the left-wing opposition party Syriza, said adopting the budget in its
current form, which includes a 2.1 billion euro hike in tax revenues as well as the spending cuts,
means "the disaster will continue".
Nevertheless Greek officials are beginning to talk of an exit strategy from the international loan
aid packages.
Some 240 billion euros have been injected into the national coffers since the EU and IMF
intervened in 2010.
"Greece has made impressive progress over the last year, and the hard work is paying off. Greece
is set to emerge from recession next year and is on track to reach a primary budget surplus,"
European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso said Wednesday after meeting with
Samaras in Brussels.
"However we know that the economic situation is still fragile and this is not the time to fall
victim to reform fatigue. More work is needed on the fiscal package, tax and public
administration reform, privatisations and improvements to the business environment and product
and service markets," Barroso said.

Iliad Excerpts

Just as thundering ocean surf crashes on the sand,

wave after wave, driven by the West Wind's power,
one wave rising at sea, then booming down on shore,
arching in crests and crashing down among the rocks,
spewing salt foam, so then Danaan ranks,
row after row, moved out, spirits firmly set on war.
Each leader issued his own orders to his men. 500
The rest marched on in silence. You'd never think
such a huge army could move out keeping its voice
[430]
buried in those chests, in silent fear of their commanders.
As they marched, the polished armour on them glittered.
As for the Trojans, they were like thousands of ewes
standing in a rich man's farm, bleating constantly,
waiting for someone to come and collect white milk,
as they hear lambs call. Just like that, the din rose up
throughout the widespread Trojan army. They shared no words
they had no common language, but mixtures of tongues, 510
with men from many lands. Ares urged on the Trojans,
while bright-eyed Athena kept rousing the Achaeans.
With them came Terror, Fear, and tireless Strife
