" U]shers the reader into the complexities of the categorical
ambiguity of Cyprus and]... concentrates... on the Dead Zone of the
divided society, in the cultural space where those who refuse to go
to the poles gather." Anastasia Karakasidou, Wellesley College
The volatile recent past of Cyprus has turned this island from
the idyllic "island of Aphrodite" of tourist literature into a
place renowned for hostile confrontations. Cyprus challenges
familiar binary divisions, between Christianity and Islam, Greeks
and Turks, Europe and the East, tradition and modernity.
Anti-colonial struggles, the divisive effects of ethnic
nationalism, war, invasion, territorial division, and population
displacements are all facets of the notorious Cyprus Problem.
Incorporating the most up-to-date social and cultural research on
Cyprus, these essays examine nationalism and interethnic relations,
Cyprus and the European Union, the impact of immigration, and the
effects of tourism and international environmental movements, among
other topics."
