A significant emphasis is placed on historical events, particularly those influencing modern Greece, such as the Greek Revolution, the impact of wars, and the socio-political changes during the 20th century. - Cultural Memory and Identity:
The journal explores themes of memory, identity, and belonging, particularly in relation to the Greek diaspora and the historical experiences of Greek communities. - Political and Social Dynamics:

Trending and Emerging
- Diaspora Studies:
There is an increasing focus on the experiences and identities of Greek communities abroad, exploring themes of migration, belonging, and cultural exchange in the context of globalization. - Cultural Memory and Trauma:
Emerging research on collective memory, trauma, and reconciliation is gaining traction, particularly in relation to historical events such as the Greek Civil War and the Asia Minor Catastrophe. - Interdisciplinary Approaches to Modernity:
The integration of various disciplines, including sociology, anthropology, and film studies, is trending, as scholars seek to understand modern Greek identity and culture through diverse lenses. - Political and Social Justice Movements:
Recent publications reflect a growing interest in contemporary political movements within Greece, including discussions on far-right politics, social justice, and the impact of economic crises on society. - Environmental and Cultural Heritage Issues:

Declining or Waning
- Traditional Nationalism:
Research focusing solely on traditional nationalism in Greece appears to be declining, as scholars increasingly explore more complex and nuanced discussions around identity that incorporate diasporic and multicultural perspectives. - Colonial Perspectives:
Studies that strictly analyze the Greek experience through a colonial lens have become less frequent, possibly due to a broader focus on transnationalism and global interactions rather than isolated national narratives. - Historical Methodologies:
There is a noticeable decrease in strictly historical methodologies that do not incorporate interdisciplinary approaches. Scholars are moving towards integrating cultural, sociological, and literary frameworks to analyze historical events.
