Laiki Agora - Organisational and Legal Aspects

Organisational and Legal Aspects

Laikes agores are supported by the government's tax income and their management is undertaken by various organisations that have a strict geographical scope.

The Organisation of people's markets of Athens-Piraeus (Organismos Laikon Agoron Athinon-Pireos, Οργανισμός Λαϊκών Αγορών Αθηνών-Πειραιώς) is responsible for the people's markets of Athens and Piraeus.

The government is responsible for drafting laws that enable a smooth, efficient operation of people's markets within Greece. The laws that control and facilitate the organisation and management of people's markets in Athens and Piraeus that are under the jurisdiction of the Organisation of people's markets of Athens-Piraeus are the 6th article of 3190/2003 (published in FEK 249 A of the Greek Government Gazzette or Ephimeris tis Kiverniseos, the official publication of the Greek government), the Presidential decree A2-2502/2001 (published in FEK 1434/22-10-2001 tv'), and the presidential decrees A2-1147/2004, A2-1148-2004, A2-1149/2004, A2-1150/2004, and presidential decree A2-1151/2004 as published in FEK 873 tv'.

But you must remember that Arbitrary power is like most other things which are very hard, very liable to be broken—and notwithstanding all your wise Laws and Maxims we have it in our power not only to free ourselves but to subdue our Masters, and without violence throw both your natural and legal authority at our feet ...”
    —Abigail Adams (1744–1818)

    “I suppose an entire cabinet of shells would be an expression of the whole human mind; a Flora of the whole globe would be so likewise, or a history of beasts; or a painting of all the aspects of the clouds. Everything is significant.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
