Publication at Faculty of Social Sciences |

Abstract

The Mediterranean island of Cyprus is the site of enduring political, military, and economic conflict. This interdisciplinary collection takes Cyprus as a geographical, cultural and political point of reference for understanding how conflict is mediated, represented, reconstructed, experienced, and transformed.

Through methodologically diverse case studies of a wide range of topics-including public art, urban spaces, and print, broadcast and digital media-it assembles an impressively multifaceted perspective, one that provides broad insights into the complex interplay of culture, conflict, and identity. The book is divided into three parts major parts which gradually describes, analyses and explain the lasting conflict.
