PERAMA, DEATH OF A TOWN

For Perama, the ships have sailed. Until recently, this working class town at Athens’ western tip hosted some of the busiest shipyards in Greece, a maritime country with one of the world’s biggest shipping industries. Perama’s unemployment is among the worst in Greece, where the nationwide figure for November was 28 percent, according to the statistical authority on Thursday, Feb. 13, 2014.
