Between Europe and the Mediterranean
Guarding Each Other's Dead, Mourning One's Own
This article tackles the problematic notions of ‘difference’ (and ‘similarity’) between Greek and Turkish Cypriots with special reference to their perceptions of their Missing Persons - persons who disappeared in the course of hostilities between the two groups, and as a result of the 1974 Turkish invasion, and whose bodies have not been recovered. The article borrows Derrida’s notion of differance who suggested that at the heart of existence is …

Bodies of Evidence
In the course of hostilities between Greek and Turkish Cypriots between 1963 and 1974, over 2000 persons, both Greek and Turkish Cypriots, went "missing" in Cyprus, an island in the Mediterranean with a population distribution of 80% Greeks and 18% Turks. This represents a significant number for a population of only 600,000. Few bodies have been recovered; most will probably not be. All are still mourned by their surviving friends and relatives. …

Mediterranean Conundrums
This paper has two purposes. First, it summarises the various papers presented at a Pluridisciplinary Conference on the Mediterranean treating the region from a variety of perspectives, a selection of which are published in this issue of History and Anthropology. Second, it attempts to explore some of the tensions between historians and anthropologists, and political scientists and geographers, in the treatment of the region

"Better occasional murders than frequent adulteries";. banditry, violence and sacrifice in the mediterranean∗∗
This article explores both the conditions that led to widespread violence and banditry in the Mediterranean up till the early 19th century, and the mechanisms operative to extract consent and complicity at the grassroots. It then examines how in popular imagination the brutal state execution of bandits turned them into popular figures of peasant suffering. It concludes by exploring the reasons for the polyvalence of banditry at different social l…

Piercing transfigurations
This paper explores representations of suffering in Cyprus, a divided island. It examines differences between Greek and Turkish Cypriots in their official publicity/propaganda photographic material in representing the issue of missing persons in Cyprus. It attempts to show that the differences are relatable not just to their different persuasive strategies, but also to different approaches to photography, to experience and memory. For the Greek C…

Banditry, Myth, and Terror in Cyprus and Other Mediterranean Societies
Although the concept of social banditry has received much critical attention since E. Hobsbawm published his book in 1969, the debate so far has perhaps been narrowly focused (Blok 1972; Vanderwood 1981; Dreissen 1983; Hart 1987; Koliopoulos 1987). Too often that debate has been framed in terms of whether bandits either express pre-political sentiments or prevent the emergence of peasant solidarity, rather than in terms of which types of rural st…

The Making of the Modern Greek Family
Religion, politics and ethnicity in Cyprus during the Turkocratia (1571-1878)
This paperexamines the relationship between religion, ethnicity and politics in Cyprus during theTurkocratia(1571-1878), the period of Ottoman rule. Its major thesis is that in the pre-industrial framework of Ottoman rule in Cyprus neither religion nor ethnicity were major sources of conflict in a society composed of two ethnic groups (Greeks and Turks) and following two monotheistic faiths(Christianity and Islam) in marked contrast to the recent…
The Archbishop in the Beleaguered City
In this paper I want to examine the significance of Makarios’ combined roles of Archbishop and President of Cyprus for his style of leadership and his political oratory. In so doing I hope to shed some light on certain aspects of ‘The Cyprus Problem’ which has hitherto received scant attention by political scientists and sociologists
Patterns of covert politics in post-independence Cyprus
If proverbs are sociologically significant the one quoted encapsulates the theme of this paper: the extreme fluidity and uncertainty of post-Independence Greek Cypriot politics; the tension between individual strategies and collective action in Greek culture; secrecy, and the use of violence for political purposes (what Aristotle had called stasis ). In this paper I want to examine the patterns of covert politics in Cyprus by tracing the evolutio…

Property in Greek Cypriot Marriage Strategies, 1920-1980
In many Paphian hill villages there has been a change over a sixty-year period in the pattern of property transmissions within the family from a largely inheritance based system to an inter vivos dowry one. The reasons for this shift are first explained. It is then suggested that this change has been accompanied by corresponding parallel changes in the rationality of marriage, in the contemporary system a strategy of social advancement hinging on…
