The Cyprus issue has been a question of European and international politics since the Great Powers of Europe decided to sponsor the Balkan nationalisms and contribute to the fall of the Ottoman Empire. In this context, Cyprus is part and parcel of the ‘Eastern Question’ that has marred European politics over the last two hundred years and, seemingly, given the unresolved Balkan crisis after the Cold War, continues to do so.This edited collection of essays is a comprehensive attempt to set the Cyprus issue in the historical perspective of the 20th century international and European affairs by way of examining the role of exogenous actors in the domestic evolution of Cyprus politics and ethnic conflict. From the lease of Ottoman Cyprus to Great Britain in 1878 to the negotiations for the accession of the island to the European Union in the 1990s and early 2000s; and from the independence struggle of the 1950s to the Turkish intervention (20 July 1974) and full-scale invasion (14 August 1974), this collection constitutes an invaluable source of information for every student or practitioner of international relations, public policy and ethnic conflict.The accession to the EU in 2003 will bring Cyprus back to the European family and open the road to a peaceful future.Introduction:Cyprus and Europe by Heinz A.
