Britain and the Cyprus Crisis of 1974 (eBook, ePUB)

Conflict, Colonialism and the Politics of Remembrance in Greek Cypriot Society

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines the ideological and socio-political discourses shaping the remembrance and representation of Britain and the Cyprus conflict of 1974 within Greek Cypriot society. By combining the official to the popular, and drawing on an extensive range of oral history interviews, this monograph shows that a suspicion born out of Britain's long (neo)-colonial connection towards Cyprus has come to frame the image and understanding of British actions associated with the events, and lasting consequences, of 1974. Indeed, with the island of Cyprus still divided, and the requirement to remember a national imperative, this book has a direct contemporary relevance.
