For the follow- ing four centuries, the Cypriot monarchs were confronted with the power of the Near Eastern empires. This essay focuses on the relations between the Cypriot kings and the Near Eastern Great Kings from the eighth to the fourth century BC. To understand these relations, two theoretical concepts are applied: the centre-periphery model and the concept of suzerainty. From the central perspective of the Assyrian and Persian empires, Cyprus was situated on the western periphery. Therefore, the local governing traditions were respected by the Assyrian and Persian masters, as long as the petty kings fulfi lled their duties by paying tributes and providing military support when requested to do so. The personal relationship between the Cypriot kings and their masters can best be described as one of suzerainty, where the rulers submitted to a superior ruler, but still retained some autonomy. This relationship was far from being stable, which could lead to manifold mis- understandings between centre and periphery. In this essay, the ways in which suzerainty worked are discussed using several examples of the relations between Cypriot kings and their masters. Key words: Assyria, Persia, Cyprus, Cypriot kings. At the end of the fourth century BC, all the Cypriot kingdoms vanished during the wars of Alexander’s successors Ptolemy and Antigonus, who struggled for control of the is- land.

  • The Armenian Cathedral of Sourp Asdvadzadzin (Theotokos) in Strovolos, Nicosia
    THE ARMENIAN CATHEDRAL OF SOURP ASDVADZADZIN (THEOTOKOS) IN STROVOLOS, NICOSIA research-text: Alexander-Michael Hadjilyra The Armenian cathedral of Sourp Asdvadzadzin (Theotokos) in Strovolos, Nicosia, next to Nareg School, the Prelature and the Armenian Genocide monument, is the centre of Armenian-Cypriot religious and community life, a meeting place of local and foreign Armenians, even Armenians and non-Armenians. It is a powerful symbol of this community and it serves as a living reminder of its mediaeval predecessor in walled Nicosia. Following the 1963-1964 intercommunal troubles, Armenian-Cypriots of Nicosia lost not only their homes and businesses, but also their church, Prelature, school and clubs. Thanks to Archbishop Makarios III, the small Ayios Dhometios chapel was used for the community’s religious needs as of early 1964; for large Liturgies, the nearby church of Saint George (1964-1969) or the Anglican cathedral of Saint Paul (1969-1981) or Nareg’s auditorium (1972-1981) were used. In the mean time, the community was trying to get back on its feet and eventually managed to build a new school, church, Prelature and Genocide monument. The issue of the school building was settled relatively quickly: the land was given to the community in trust by the government in 1966 thanks to the efforts of Representative Berge Tilbian, while the actual building was erected on Cyclops street between 1971- 1972, thanks to the efforts of Representative Dr. Antranik L. Ashdjian and funding from the Ministry of Education. However, the issue of the church was a different matter: between 1973-1974, the government had proposed various hali lands (government- owned uncultivated lands), abundant in the Acropolis area, but the Ethnarchy and particularly der Vazken Sandrouni felt the need to have the church next to the school.

Conclusion _____________________________________________________ 17 References _________________________________________________________ 21 ii Europeanisation and 'Internalised' Conflicts: The Case of Cyprus George Kyris # ABSTRACT This article investigates the role of the EU in conflict resolution, taking Cyprus as a case of an 'internalised' conflict, whereby a side of the dispute has become a member state (Greek-Cypriots), while the rest of actors (Turkey, Turkish Cypriots) remain outside but are still developing relations to the EU. In exploring the impact of the EU on Greek Cypriot, Turkish Cypriot and Turkish policies towards the dispute, this work engages with the Europeanisation debate. The argument advanced is that internalisation of the conflict limits the ability of the EU to act in the dispute and triggers inflexible policies, which are counterproductive to resolution. This work contributes to the Europeanisation discussion and the impact of the EU on domestic policies, especially in conflict situations. With a series of conflicts in the European periphery but also disputes within the EU (e.g. separatists tensions), this is an important contribution to the understudied topic of 'internalised conflicts'.

  • Rapid Antigen Testing for Employees and the General Population – Testing Units 5 March 2021
    Rapid antigen testing for employees and the general population – Testing units 5 March 2021 Aiming at the continuous surveillance of the community and the workplaces, the free programmes of rapid antigen testing of the general population and employees are in progress. For the smooth and safe operation of businesses that have been activated according to the Decrees, employers in businesses, as well as the Heads of Departments/Services in the public and wider public sector, are obliged to coordinate the rapid testing of the employees, so that the mandatory weekly testing of the personnel, through the rapid antigen test, is ensured as follows: Businesses/services employing up to 3 people, all employees should be tested. Businesses/services employing between 4 to 10 people, at least 4 employees should be tested. Businesses/services employing more than 11 people, at least 4 people or 20% of employees should be tested, whichever is higher in number. Additionally, the self-employed and the domestic employees and/or people caring for elders or disabled persons or people providing assistance to individuals who are unable to take care of themselves are obligated to participate in the program. It is recalled that all teachers and school staff without exception are required to undergo a weekly check with a rapid antigen test. The negative result certificate should be presented during the checks. At the same time, according to the Decree, dated 2 March, as of 8 March, students aged 12 and over are required to submit a negative rapid test certificate on a weekly basis. It is noted that mobile testing units will be located in public and private Lyceums and Technical Schools, however, staff and students can be tested at the various testing units, as well.

    FREESIDE EUROPE ONLINE ACADEMIC JOURNAL 2020/1 ALUMNI ISSUE www.freesideeurope.com DOI 10.51313/alumni-2020-9 Categories and social meanings: An analysis of international students’ language practices in an international school Jani-Demetriou Bernadett ELTE Doctoral School of Linguistics [email protected] Abstract Bilingual educational programmes in recent years received criticism from translanguaging or superdiversity scholars. These programmes follow either the subtractive or the additive models of bilingual education (García 2009), in both of which the languages are considered as separate systems. This distinction is considered as “inadequate to describe linguistic diversity” (García 2009: 142) and masks the real diversity of difference by focusing only on languages. Thinking in terms of plurilingualism and multiculturalism “might contribute to a continuation of thinking in terms of us-versus-them, essentializing cultural or ethnic differences” (Geldof 2018: 45). The present study argues that a critical ethnographic sociolinguistic approach provides a more relevant analysis of children’s language practices. From this critical perspective, speaking is highlighted instead of languages and considered as action in which the linguistic resources carry social meaning (Blommaert–Rampton 2011). This paper introduces the findings of an ethnographic fieldwork set in an international summer school where linguistic and ethnic diversity is a commonplace, although a strict English-only language policy applies in order to achieve the school’s pedagogical goals. The aim of the research has been to find out how students from various cultural background are dealing with ethnical and linguistic diversity and to analyse how the processes of normalisation (Geldof 2018) among students and teachers create values and categories accepted as norms by the group.

Donovan Adams Research Advisor: Stuart Swiny, Ph.D. March 2013 1 Abstract The Early Bronze Age of Cyprus is not a very well understood chronological period of the island for a variety of reasons. These include: the inaccessibility of the northern part of the island after the Turkish invasion, the lack of a written language, and the fragility of Cypriot artifacts. Many aspects of protohistoric Cypriot life have become more understood, such as: the economic structure, social organization, and interactions between Cyprus and Anatolia.

  • Presidential Elections in Cyprus in 2013
    INTERNATIONAL POLICY ANALYSIS Presidential Elections in Cyprus in 2013 CHRISTOPHEROS CHRISTOPHOROU February 2013 n The right-wing party Democratic Rally is likely to return to power, twenty years since it first elected its founder, Glafcos Clerides, to the Presidency of the Republic of Cyprus and after ten years in opposition. The party’s leader may secure election in the first round, thanks to the alliance with the Democratic Party and the weakening of the governing communist Progressive Party of the Working People. n The economy displaced the Cyprus Problem as the central issue of the election cam- paign. The opposition blames the government’s inaction for the country’s ailing economy, while the government, the ruling AKEL and their candidate blame neolib- eral policies and the banking system. The candidate of the Social Democrats EDEK distinguishes himself by proposing to pre-sell hydrocarbons and do away with the Troika. He also openly opposes bizonality in a federal solution. n Whatever the outcome of the election, it will mark a new era in internal politics and in Cyprus’s relations with the European Union and the international community. The rapid weakening of the polarisation between left and right, at the expense of the left, may give rise to new forces. Their main feature is nationalist discourse and radical positions on the Cyprus Issue and other questions. Depending on the winner, Nicosia and Brussels may experience a kind of (their first) honeymoon or, conversely, a new period of strained relations. n At another level, the new President will have to govern under the scrutiny of the IMF and the European Union’s support mechanism.
