The conference was organized by the Center of Research and Communication for Peace, located in the said Faculty of Communi- cation and Media Studies. The theme of our conference was “If You Wish Peace, Work for Justice,” which is a quotation from Zygmunt Bauman. Continuing with our tradition of peace-related themes, this year we focused on the relationship between peace and justice. The way things are set up today, for example, in the “global division of labor,” many of the activities on which our livelihood depends, feed on inequalities and injustices brought on others. The computer I wrote this text with is an Apple Macintosh. But while Apple is a corporation based in the US, my computer was not produced in the US but in China. When I ask them why this is the case, my students know quite well that this is because of “cheap labor” in China, without giving this phrase, “cheap labor,” a second thought. Corporations like Apple cannot avail themselves to the advantages of “sweatshop labor conditions” or even “child labor” at home, because it is unjust and against the law. But their production facilities in the Global South—usually run by contractors—allows them to take advantage of such injustices. This is how those obscene amounts of wealth get to concentrate in the hands of a very few—the 1%—at the expense of the vast majority—the 99%—as expressed in the discourse of the occupy movement in the US and in the global protests elsewhere. Fortunately, the global communication network, the very infrastructure that makes this way of doing business globally possible, also enables us to find out what is going on elsewhere, to connect the dots, to see the global con- nections, and to find out that our seemingly “local” problems are not unique to us, that we are not alone, enabling the development of a sense of solidarity with others elsewhere as well. Additionally, the global communication network also makes the organization of global protests and boycotts possible. It was this seemingly inextricable link between peace and justice that led us to our theme this year. In addition to panel presentations, we also had a number of events taking place during the conference. One was a focus group discussion with invited guests, civil society activists, moderated by our keynote speaker Professor Oliver Richmond on “Civil Society and Peacemaking in North Cyprus” that allowed reflection and sharing of experiences by diverse civil society activists on peacemaking. We also had a session, in Turkish, commemorating Erol Mutlu, a distinguished scholar in communication studies, who taught in our Faculty before he passed away. A short film on his life and work was also shown. Serap Kanay, a Turkish Cypriot artist, participated in our confer- ence with her installation called “Monument: Her/story,” which was on display throughout the conference. Serap was on hand for those who wished to speak with her about her installation, and her “herstory” is included in our proceedings book. Once again, our conference became the meeting point of a diverse international gathering, which enabled us to share experiences, note similarities and differences, negotiate our differences, learn new things and even unlearn parts of our learning which prevent us from gaining a new, more “peaceful” perspective. These exchanges enrich us all, and sometimes enable us to shift our perspective, so that we may get to see what we, otherwise, could not see. In addition to our participants and keynote speaker, many people worked hard to make our conference possible, on

  • Is the Turkish Cypriot Population Shrinking?
    CYPRUS CENTRE 2/2007 REPORT 2/2007 Is the Turkish Cypriot Population Shrinking? Shrinking? Cypriot Population Turkish Is the The demography of north Cyprus is one of the most contested issues related to the island’s division. In particular, the number of indigenous Turkish Cypriots and Turkish immigrants living in the north has long been a source of dispute, not only among the island’s diplomats and politicians but also among researchers and activists. Until recently, the political use of demog- raphy has hindered comprehensive study of the ethno-demographic make-up of the north, while at the same time making a thorough demographic study all the more imperative. The present report addresses this situation by providing an analysis of the results of the 2006 census of north Cyprus, comparing these fi gures with the results of the previous census. The report focuses mainly on identifying the percentage of the population of north Cyprus who are of Turkish-mainland origin and also possess Turkish Cypriot citizenship – an important factor given claims that such citizens play an signifi cant role in elections in the north. In addi- tion, the report examines the arrival dates of Turkish nationals in order to analyze patterns of migration. This, in turn, is indicative of the numbers of naturalized Turkish Cypriot citizens who have arrived in Cyprus as part of an offi cial policy. The report also presents estimates for Turkish Cypriot emigration to third countries, based on immigration and census fi gures from the two main host countries: the United Kingdom and Australia. Following analysis of these latter fi gures and the results of the 2006 census, it is argued that claims of massive emigration by Turkish Cypriots to third countries are largely misleading.

  • The Northern Cypriot Dream – Turkish Immigration 1974–1980
    The Northern Cypriot Dream – Turkish Immigration 1974–1980 HELGE JENSEHAUGEN1 Abstract After the division of Cyprus in 1974 into a Greek Cypriot south and a Turkish Cypriot north, approximately 30,000 immigrants from Turkey moved to north Cyprus. The period between 1974 and 1980 is the time during which these immigrants arrived in northern Cyprus, and may be referred to as the first wave of immigration. This article seeks primarily to answer the question: Why did they immigrate to northern Cyprus? There are a lot of misperceptions about the movement of so many people from Turkey to north Cyprus; therefore it is important that this study creates an accurate and much-needed debate. In short, the first wave of immigration should be viewed as a result of the employment of state mechanisms as well as traditional pull factors: work opportunities, and a need for labour in north Cyprus. Once in northern Cyprus, these immigrants received housing, land, and aid plus help with other necessities such as food and supplies. Keywords: immigration, Turkey, north Cyprus, settlers, Turkish Cypriots, refugees Introduction When Cyprus was divided in 1974, the leaders of the Turkish Cypriot community, with the help of Turkish authorities, initiated a policy of encouraging people from Turkey to move to northern Cyprus.2 In addition to the relatively high number of casualties and missing persons, a population vacuum was created through the vast numbers of internally displaced persons. UNHCR estimated that there were circa 240,000 internally displaced as a result of the division of the island, of which approximately 180,000 were Greek Cypriots who moved south, and 60,000 were Turkish Cypriots who went north.3 This obviously resulted in a vast amount of abandoned moveable and 1 This article is based on my master’s thesis: H.

  • THE CYPRUS PROBLEM in an ERA of UNCERTAINTY: Establishing a Culture of Engagement
    05 CYPRUS PROBLEM FOR PRINT.qxp_Layout 1 18/11/2019 2:42 PM Page 1 For over fifty years, the international community, led by the United Nations, has The Cyprus attempted to find a settlement to the so-called Cyprus Problem. Following the Problem in an Era collapse of the latest talks in 2017, there is real concern that the island is now drifting towards a permanent and irrevocable division as the communities become of Uncertainty: ever more estranged. To this end, urgent steps are needed to try to forge greater Establishing a Culture contacts between Greek and Turkish Cypriots. However, many initiatives are being held back over fears of recognition. This report argues that such concerns, while of Engagement understandable, are threatening to make reunification impossible. Building on a growing understanding in academic and policy circles that the concept of ‘engagement without recognition’ is a valuable tool of conflict management in James Ker-Lindsay secessionist disputes, the report outlines a number of tangible steps that can be taken to promote a ‘culture of engagement’ between the island’s communities. These range from making the political case for greater communal interaction and offering official funding such activities through to implementing already agreed initiatives and addressing the legacy of the past. While such steps should be locally driven, the international community has a crucial part to play. In future, the leaders of the two communities should not merely be judged on their willingness to engage in settlement negotiations. They should also be judged on their willingness to create the wider conditions for reunification and future cohabitation.

  • Protracted Occupation That Leads to De Facto State Creation: the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, an International Legal Evaluation
    Global Journal of Politics and Law Research Vol.8, No.2, pp.30-64, March 2020 Published by ECRTD-UK ISSN: ISSN 2053-6321(Print), ISSN: ISSN 2053-6593(Online) PROTRACTED OCCUPATION THAT LEADS TO DE FACTO STATE CREATION: THE TURKISH REPUBLIC OF NORTHERN CYPRUS, AN INTERNATIONAL LEGAL EVALUATION Sanford R. Silverburg, Ph.D Professor Emeritus Department of History and Politics Catawba College Salisbury, NC [email protected] ABSTRACT: The history of Cyprus is replete with foreign invasions and occupation. Modern history has Great Britain in control over the island, betwixt a long-term period of antagonism and hostility over the island’s control between Greece and Turkey. Greek Cypriots have for many years sought enosis, or union with Greece, while the minority Turkish community’s ethnic community goal has been taksim (partition) between the two ethnic groups. A crucial temporal dividing point came in 1974 when following a coup d’etat against the Greek Cypriot leadership leading to some instability which was then followed by a Turkish military invasion in order to protect the island’s Turkish population. Once order was restored and with Ankara’s backing, the Turkish Cypriots created the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus. Because of the manner in which the political action occurred, only Turkey provided diplomatic recognition, thus bringing up the legal issue of non-recognition and a discussion of the use of force to achieve a political objective. KEY WORDS: Cyprus, Turkish republic, northern Cyprus, Turkish foreign policy, Greek foreign policy, occupation, international law, de facto state INTRODUCTION Occupation in its varied forms1 has taken on increased interest in the post-World War II era, at multiple legal2 and political levels.

    , 3/2, 2019 e-ISSN: 2564-7202 THE EUROPEAN UNION LAW REALITY IN CYPRUS: ONLY SOUTH, WHAT ABOUT THE NORTHERN PART? Abstract The consequences and influences of separate referenda held in 2004, the reflections of it have been great importance for the case of Cyprus. Especially, after the membership of Cyprus, the case of Cyprus turned its face under the European Union policies. In currently, Cyprus is a divided country within European Union and the problem of Cyprus directly affects values and rules of European Union.
