The Political and Economic History of North Cyprus (eBook, PDF)

A Discordant Polity

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This monograph provides a comprehensive analysis of the political economy of the Turkish Cypriot governance in the northern part of Cyprus after 1974. Examining the political and state structure, labour market, social security, state economic enterprises and allocation of land, Ekici shines a light on the turbulent history of North Cyprus. What is its relationship with Turkey and the South? How does economic development compare across Cyprus? Who are the potential perpetrators of post-1974 developments? Such questions are addressed in this much-needed book.

As a self-proclaimed internationally unrecognised state, neglected by the international community and scholarly literature, this book marks an important development in the study of North Cyprus and Turkey's role in its economy and politics.

Rezensionen

"The Political and Economic History of North Cyprus: A Discordant Polity provides the reader with a comprehensive analysis of the 'discordant' economic development of northern Cyprus. It is an invaluable contribution to Cyprus studies and an essential book for an introduction to the political economy of the TRNC. It could be a handbook for those studying the politics of Cyprus as well as those interested in the economic relations between Turkey and North Cyprus." (Ismail Yazici, Insight Turkey, Vol. 24 (1), 2022)
