World War II marked a pivotal point in the history of Cyprus,
yet surprisingly, this period of the island's history has been
little studied to date. Anastasia Yiangou here provides the first
major study of the impact of World War II on the political
development of Cyprus. In doing so she traces shifting Cypriot
attitudes to the war and the formation of a triangular conflict in
the island between the Left, Right and British colonial power. She
explains how the British and Cypriots fought a war alongside each
other, yet remained far apart in discussions on the future of the
island. Yiangou's original and compelling analysis highlights how
the post-1945 landscape of Cypriot political struggles was shaped
by forces set in motion during the war itself.
