Divided Cyprus : modernity, history, and an island in conflict
2006
Overview
[U]shers the reader into the complexities of the categorical
ambiguity of Cyprus [and]... concentrates... on the Dead Zone of the divided
society, in the cultural space where those who refuse to go to the poles
gather. -- Anastasia Karakasidou, Wellesley College The
volatile recent past of Cyprus has turned this island from the idyllic island
of Aphrodite of tourist literature into a place renowned for hostile
confrontations. Cyprus challenges familiar binary divisions, between Christianity
and Islam, Greeks and Turks, Europe and the East, tradition and modernity.
Anti-colonial struggles, the divisive effects of ethnic nationalism, war, invasion,
territorial division, and population displacements are all facets of the notorious
Cyprus Problem. Incorporating the most up-to-date social and cultural research on
Cyprus, these essays examine nationalism and interethnic relations, Cyprus and the
European Union, the impact of immigration, and the effects of tourism and
international environmental movements, among other topics.
