  • The Undemocratic Role of Turkish Cypriot Radio News in the Cyprus Conflict
    The Undemocratic Role of Turkish Cypriot Radio News in the Cyprus Conflict Copyright © 2011 Critical Approaches to Discourse Analysis across Disciplines http://cadaad.net/journal Vol. 5 (1): 45 – 61 ISSN: 1752-3079 LYNDON C.S. WAY Izmir University of Economics [email protected] Abstract Drawing on newsroom studies and a Critical Discourse Analysis of news broadcasts this paper looks at the way Turkish Cypriot radio news in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus is guilty of hampering democratic processes, particularly as regards the resolution of the conflict with the Republic of Cyprus. On the one hand stations appear to support currently popular pro-solution politics but a closer look at the language used shows that each uses lexical and grammatical choices to also communicate threat and suspicion, in each case slightly differently to support their own associated ideologies and interests, which are consistently anti-solution. For all intents and purposes these are news organisations only in terms of the ‘news semiotic’. Employees called journalists work with news agency feeds, write, produce, edit and air news stories for newscasts daily like news in other European states, but what they are in fact doing is reflecting the interests of elites associated with each station, working to the detriment of democratic popular notions of unity throughout Cyprus. Keywords: Cyprus, TRNC, Radio, News, Critical Discourse Analysis 1. Introduction The Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) is an internationally unrecognised nation-state occupying the northern third of the island of Cyprus which since the 1960s has existed in conflict with the Greek Cypriot controlled Republic of Cyprus (ROC).

  • Cyprus 2020 Human Rights Report
    CYPRUS 2020 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT Since 1974 the southern part of Cyprus has been under the control of the government of the Republic of Cyprus. The northern part of Cyprus, administered by Turkish Cypriots, proclaimed itself the “Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus” in 1983. The United States does not recognize the “Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus,” nor does any country other than Turkey. A substantial number of Turkish troops remain on the island. A buffer zone, or “Green Line,” patrolled by the UN Peacekeeping Force in Cyprus, separates the two sides. This report is divided into two parts: the Republic of Cyprus, and the area administered by Turkish Cypriots. REPUBLIC OF CYPRUS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Republic of Cyprus is a constitutional republic and multiparty presidential democracy. In 2018 voters re-elected President Nicos Anastasiades in free and fair elections. In 2016 voters elected 56 representatives to the 80-seat House of Representatives (Vouli Antiprosopon) in free and fair elections. The remaining seats are designated for Turkish Cypriots and are left vacant. Police enforce the law and combat criminal activity. Police report to the Ministry of Justice and Public Order. The president appoints the chief of police. Civilian authorities maintained effective control over the security forces. Members of the security forces committed some abuses. Significant human rights issues included: serious acts of corruption; crimes involving violence or threats of violence targeting members of national and ethnic minorities; and lack of investigation of and accountability for violence against women. The government took steps to identify, investigate, prosecute, and punish officials who committed human rights abuses.
