  • 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 New Energy Triangle of Cyprus-Greece-Israel: Casting a Net for Turkey?
    THE NEW ENERGY TRIANGLE OF CYPRUS-GREECE-ISRAEL: CASTING A NET FOR TURKEY? A long-running speculation over massive natural gas reserves in the tumultuous area of the Southeastern Mediterranean became a reality in December 2011 and the discovery's timing along with other grave and interwoven events in the region came to create a veritable tinderbox. The classic “Rubik's cube” puzzle here is in perfect sync with the realities on the ground and how this “New Energy Triangle” (NET) of newfound and traditional allies' actions (Cyprus, Greece and Israel) towards Turkey will shape and inevitably affect the new balance of power in this crucial part of the world. George Stavris* *George Stavris is a visiting researcher at Dundee University's Centre for Energy, Petroleum and Mineral Law and Policy working on the geostrategic repercussions in the region of the “New Energy Alliance” (NET) of Cyprus, Greece and Israel. 87 VOLUME 11 NUMBER 2 GEORGE STAVRIS long-running speculation over massive natural gas reserves in the tumultuous area of the Southeastern Mediterranean and in Cyprus’s Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) became a reality in A December 2011 when official reports of the research and scoping were released. Nearby, Israel has already confirmed its own reserves right next to Cyprus’ EEZ. However the location of Cypriot reserves with all the intricacies of the intractable “Cyprus Problem” and the discovery’s timing along with other grave and interwoven events in the region came to create a veritable tinderbox. A rare combination of the above factors and ensuing complications have created not just a storm in the area but almost, indisputably, the rare occasion of a “Perfect Storm” in international politics with turbulence reaching far beyond the shores of the Mediterranean “Lake”.

  • Race, Color, and Nationalism in Aruban and Curaçaoan Political Identities
    Thamyris/Intersecting No. 27 (2014) 117–132 Race, Color, and Nationalism in Aruban and Curaçaoan Political Identities Michael Orlando Sharpe This chapter focuses on the development and instrumentalization of race and color based Aruban and Curaçaoan nationalisms within processes of decolonization and reconstitution in the context of Dutch sovereignty and Dutch liberal democracy. I argue this instrumentalization of race and color as markers of national identity takes place within an overall framework of white supremacy. The following will describe the current political construction of the Dutch Kingdom and examine Aruban and Curaçaoan national myths of origin along with a brief history of Dutch colonialism and slavery including the 20th century relevance of oil refinement on these islands. Next, there will a discussion of the significance of the 1954 Charter for the Kingdom of the Netherlands or Statuut and the key role of Curaçao’s labor unrest of 30 May 1969 or “Trinta de Mei” in the development and deployment of racially and color based Aruban and Curaçaoan nationalisms as “invented traditions” and “social engineer- ing.” The chapter will conclude with an examination of the ways in which these notions of race and racism are reified in the Netherlands today. This discussion centers on developments around the Netherlands Antilles prior to its dissolution on 10 October 2010. Before 10/10/10, the Kingdom of the Netherlands was made up of the Netherlands, the Netherlands Antilles, and Aruba. The Netherlands Antilles was a federation of the five island states of Curaçao (admin- istrative capital), Bonaire, Saba, St. Eustatius, and St. Maarten. The current Dutch Kingdom consists of the Netherlands, Aruba, Curaçao, and St.

It will be recalled that the Kingdom of the Netherlands extended the application of the Madrid Protocol to the Netherlands Antilles, with effect from April 28, 2003.

The territory formerly known as the Netherlands Antilles will thenceforth be divided into the three territorial entities of Curaçao, Saint Martin and the Caribbean Part of the Netherlands Antilles, comprised of the islands of Bonaire, Saint Eustatius and Saba (hereinafter referred to as “the BES Islands”), each having a distinctive trademarks legislation and administration within the Kingdom of the Netherlands. 3. As a result of the aforementioned declaration, international registrations containing a designation of the Netherlands Antilles will continue to have effect in the three new territorial entities, as from October 10, 2010.
