  • TOWARD the REUNIFICATION of CYPRUS: DEFINING and INTEGRATING RECONCILIATION INTO the PEACE PROCESS Virginie Ladisch
    110 Virginie Ladisch 6 TOWARD THE REUNIFICATION OF CYPRUS: DEFINING AND INTEGRATING RECONCILIATION INTO THE PEACE PROCESS Virginie Ladisch In the search for a solution to the “Cyprus problem,” the focus of debate has been on power sharing agreements, land exchanges, right of return, and economics. There has been little focus on reconciliation. This research, conducted one year after the ref- erendum in which Cypriots were given an historic opportunity to vote on the reunifi cation of the island, places the concept of reconciliation at the center of the debate about the Cyprus problem. Based on data gathered through forty interviews with Greek Cypriot and Turkish Cypriot politicians, businessmen, activists, academics, organizational leaders, economists, and members of civil society, this article presents Cypriots’ views on reconciliation. Drawing from literature on reconciliation in confl ict-divided societies as a framework, this article also analyzes the various perceptions Cypriots hold about reconciliation. Finally, this article identifi es initiatives that could be used to promote reconciliation in Cyprus. The process needs to begin immediately so that it can lay the groundwork for the open dialogue, trust building, and understanding that are essential to the successful settlement of the Cyprus problem.1 Virginie Ladisch is a Master in International Affairs candidate at the School of Inter- national and Public Affairs, Columbia University ([email protected]). 7 Toward the Reunifi cation of Cyprus: Defi ning and Integrating Reconciliation into the Peace Process 111 INTRODUCTION In the search for a solution to the “Cyprus problem,” the focus of debates and discussions has been on power sharing agreements, land exchanges, right of return, and economics, but there has been little to no focus on reconciliation.

  • A Divided Civil Society in Stalemate Esra Cuhadar and Andreas Kotelis
    9 Cyprus: A Divided Civil Society in Stalemate Esra Cuhadar and Andreas Kotelis The conflict on the island of Cyprus is long-standing, intractable, and currently at a stalemate. In this chapter we explore the functions of civil society in the Cypriot conflict, tracing its historical background, providing an overview of the status of civil society on Cyprus, and presenting findings about peacebuilding-oriented civil society. Then, following the theoretical frame- work developed by Thania Paffenholz and Christoph Spurk (see Chapter 4), we elaborate on the peacebuilding functions that are performed by Cypriot civil society. Context Located in the eastern Mediterranean, Cyprus is the third largest island in that sea; it lies south of Turkey and is strategically positioned near the Middle East. Its population is currently slightly more than 1 million, mainly Greek (748,217 concentrated in the South) and Turkish (265,100 concentrated in the North),1 with minorities of Armenians, Maronites, and Latins. The Greek Cypriot and Turkish Cypriot communities are the main adversaries in the conflict, although the conflict cannot be separated from the broader conflict between the coun- tries of Greece and Turkey. It is difficult to summarize the conflict in a few paragraphs, especially when considering the historical narratives adopted by the parties (Dodd 1998; Hannay 2005; Mijftiiler Bag 1999; O’Malley and Craig 1999; Boliikbasl 2001; Anm 2002; Chrysostomides 2000; Papadakis 1998; and Volkan 1979). Below we describe the conflict in the context of peacebuilding and civil society. Even though intercommunal violence became rampant in the 19603, for some scholars the conflict dates to British colonialism, when the seeds of eth- nocentric nationalism were sown (Anastasiou 2006; Hasgijler 2000).

FEDERALISM AND THE ‘ONE-PERSON ONE-VOTE PRINCIPLE’: POLITICAL ACCOMMODATION IN CYPRUS AND THE ANNAN PLAN by Gavin Moore Department of Political Science, Queens University Belfast, Ireland Email: [email protected] Abstract: The ‘one-person one-vote principle’ (OPOV) seems to be an intuitively appealing principle, one that is procedurally fair by ensuring equality in votes for all and contributes to the proper functioning of democratic states. Although commonly cited as a cornerstone of democracy, this article argues that OPOV can be a dangerous principle in societies divided by group conflict. Minorities face permanent exclusion, and thus cannot protect their own interests, leading to resentment and destabilization. Moreover, deviation from OPOV is not uncommon in political accommodation, especially in federal arrangements.

They will stay as a memento to remind us that we once had a house in the village which became a ruin. ... In the foundations they buried our whole life, our culture, our history, spiritual treasures, dreams and traditions."' After many decades of conflict between Greek Cypriot and Turkish Cypriot residents of Cyprus, the Turkish army invaded the Republic of Cyprus (RoC) on July 20, 1974. This military endeavor displaced approximately 200,000 Greek Cypriots and 65,000 Turkish Cypriots; the Greek Cypriots migrated to the southern portion of the island, while the Turkish Cypriots sought refuge in the Turkish-controlled North.' When the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) declared its autonomy in 1975,' the already inequitable distribution of land resources t.

  • Two Cheers for Christofias! Is the Glass Half Full Or Half Empty in Post-Election Cyprus? CEPS Commentary/28 March 2008 Nathalie Tocci∗
    Two Cheers for Christofias! Is the glass half full or half empty in post-election Cyprus? CEPS Commentary/28 March 2008 Nathalie Tocci∗ ray of hope has flickered over the conflict-ridden island of Cyprus with the presidential elections in the Greek Cypriot south held on the 17th and the 24th of February 2008. And for A good reason. Since the fateful referendum over the UN-brokered Annan Plan, the island has lived through stagnation at best and unrelenting deterioration at worst. With the partial exception of the low-key ‘Gambari process’ launched in 2006, the peace process has been shelved since April 2004. Yet this does not imply that trends on the ground have been frozen. As the Annan Plan became a fading memory, the prospects for reunification on the basis of a loose federal solution became increasingly dim. The upper hand has been taken by the two opposite ends of the spectrum of possible solutions: reunification into a unitary state, as desired by the Greek Cypriot side, and two de facto separate states or entities, as preferred or not opposed by the Turkish Cypriot side. Against all odds, the Greek Cypriot public reversed the negative swing of the Cyprus pendulum with its vote on 17 February 2008. By relegating incumbent President Tassos Papadopolous to a humiliating third place in the presidential race, the Greek Cypriots signalled their will for change. In the first round, Papadopolous, with 31.8% of the vote, lagged behind AKEL candidate Demetrios Christofias at 33.3%, as well as the DISY candidate Yiannis Cassoulides at 33.5%.
