Analyzing and Resolving the Cyprus Conflict
Bu makale, Kıbrıs‟ta Türk ve Rum etnik grupları arasında süregiden uyuşmazlığı tarihsel gerçekler temelinde geniş bir perspektiften analiz etmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Çalışma, aynı zamanda, uyuşmazlığı daha çok yasal ve politik açılardan ele alan geleneksel yaklaşımlara bir kritik niteliğindedir. Çalışmada, Kıbrıs‟taki uyuşmazlığın hem ilişkisel, hem de çıkar boyutları içeren ve geniş anlamda Türkler ile Yunanlılar arasındaki tarihsel travmalara dayanan kompleks bir sorun olduğuna vurgu yapılmakta ve sorunun bu kompleks yapısının kavranamamasının kalıcı bir çözüm üretemeyeceği belirtilmektedir. Analiz temelinde çalışma, barışa yönelik bir takım önerilere de ulaşmaktadır. Bu bağlamda özellikle güven oluşturucu önlemlerin önemine değinilmekte ve söz konusu önlemler detaylı bir biçimde tartışılmaktadır

Analyzing and Resolving the Cyprus Conflict
This article attempts to analyze the ongoing conflict on Cyprus between the Greek and Turkish ethnic groups from a broader perspective, based on historic facts. It is particularly a critique of the traditional analyses of the conflict that pay more attention to present legal or political problems. The study suggests that the Cyprus conflict is a complex one involving both relational and interest dimensions, most of which are rooted in past traumas, dominating the GreekTurkish relations at large. Failure to understand this complexity is unlikely to produce a lasting peace. Based on the analysis of the conflict, the study tries to come up with some recommendations for the prospect as well. In this respect, especially many confidence building measures are proposed and discussed in detail
