Inhoud:
The essay re-examines the Cyprus conflict in light of recent tensions, which necessitated a flurry of diplomatic activity on behalf of a multitude of international actors. Yet, despite this sustained international effort, the Greek Cypriot side, responding to their perceived security dilemma, decided on a policy of brinkmanship, both to raise international awareness and to raise the stakes of any subsequent conflict with Turkey. The recent failure of this strategy, however, has not reduced the potential of the eastern Mediterranean to erupt into conflict. The essay contends that the Cyprus problem highlights fundamental flaws in the international and regional system, and is indicative of the tenuous nature of international politics in a 'frontier' region caught between conflicting international norms and political eras.
