Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The island of Cyprus has been the scene of one of the most tragic conflicts in post-war Europe. A country with a long and rich tradition and much to contribute to all of the cultures of the Mediterranean, Cyprus has been torn apart almost since the day of its independence. Since 197, more than a third of the island has been occupied by Turkey. Attempts to find a peaceful solution to the conflict has come and gone but the status quo, branded as unacceptable by the United Nations, has remained. Why this is so has already been the subject of many studies. Few, however, have analysed in any detail the position of Cyprus in international law. Yet an understanding of how the rule of law in international society applies to Cyprus is essential to a proper understanding of the Cyprus question. In his new book, Dr Chrysostomides offers just such an analysis, examining with great care the constitutional history of the Republic of Cyprus, the legal principles applicable to the Turkish invasion of 10974 and subsequent occupation and the substantial body of case law and State practice regarding Cyprus since that date. He discusses the competing legal arguments concerning the application of the Republic of Cyprus to join the European Union, the controversial decisions of the European Court and commission of Human Rights, and the debates regarding the status of the occupied northern part of Cyprus. His conclusion is that the Republic of Cyprus has had a continuous existence as a State – and as the only State on the island of Cyprus – since 1960, notwithstanding all of the violations of international law to which it has been subjected. From the Foreword by Christopher Greenwood, QC

Download or read book International Law and Cyprus written by J. van Gulick and published by . This book was released on 2010-01-31 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Republic of Cyprus was placed under British administration in 1878 until independence in 1960 (The Zurich and London Agreements). With these agreements, Cyprus became a constitutional democracy and is now a member of both the United Nations and the European Union. The Republic of Cyprus is recognized internationally as it's government is considered to be the legitimate government of the whole island. In the years after the recognition of Cyprus as a democracy, inter-communal violence broke out and UN forces were deployed in Cyprus. An attempted invasion of Cyprus by Turkey in 1964 was put to an end by the US President Lyndon Johnson. In 1967, Rauf Denktas and Glafkos Klerides tried to negotiate a settlement, which led to a temporary relief of the tension between both parties. However, a coup d'etat of 1974 led to extreme violence between Greek and Turkish Cypriots, resulting in the invasion and occupation by Turkey in July 1974. From that moment on, Turkey controls the northern part of the island. This part of the island is not under effective control of the republic and is recognized by Turkey since 1983 as the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TNRC), but is not recognized by the international community. UN Security Council Resolution 541 (1983) does not recognize the TNRC as lawful and called upon Turkey to retreat from northern Cyprus. The resolution furthermore called upon others not to support and recognize the TNRC. The last major effort to settle the dispute dates from 2004, when UN Secretary General Kofi Annan tried to negotiate reunification of both sides of the Island. Direct reason to start these negotiations was Cyprus' upcoming membership of the EU. This UN Comprehensive Settlement of The Cyprus Problem, known as the 'Annan (Peace) Plan, ' organized referenda in both the north and the south, but gained support of the Turks only, as it was rejected by the Greeks. At present, there is a ceasefire between both parties, even though the UN still deploys troups. This book offers a selection of historical documents, including the ones mentioned above, and provides an overview of the international dispute that has been going on for decades. The book will be of interest to those who work on the dispute between Cyprus and Turkey, as well as for those who wish to know more about the involvement of the international community in the Cyprus conflict

Download or read book Legal Aspects of the Cyprus Problem written by Frank Hoffmeister and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 2006 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The five versions of the comprehensive settlement plan for Cyprus, which UN Secretary-General Annan tabled between 2002 and 2004, raised a variety of international law and European law questions. This book contains the first systematic analysis of the Annan plan, thereby providing an overview of the legal aspects of the Cyprus problem. It also discusses how the plan was intended to be accommodated in the European legal order. Did it comply with the fundamental principle of democracy, rule of law and human rights? Would a united Cyprus have been able to speak with one voice and to implement EU law properly? The Author, who has worked both for the European Commission and for the UN Special Advisor on Cyprus, presents a precise account of facts and thorough legal assessments. He also tackles current legal problems arising out of Cyprus' membership in the EU and the suspension of the "acquis communautaire" in the northern part of Cyprus. He finally analyses how the question of recognition affects the relations between Cyprus and Turkey. The book is an ideal choice for practitioners and researchers because it combines first hand information on the most recent developments on Cyprus with legal evaluations from an international official trained in international and European law.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this very useful analysis of constitutional law in Cyprus provides essential information on the country’s sources of constitutional law, its form of government, and its administrative structure. Lawyers who handle transnational matters will appreciate the clarifications of particular terminology and its application. Throughout the book, the treatment emphasizes the specific points at which constitutional law affects the interpretation of legal rules and procedure. Thorough coverage by a local expert fully describes the political system, the historical background, the role of treaties, legislation, jurisprudence, and administrative regulations. The discussion of the form and structure of government outlines its legal status, the jurisdiction and workings of the central state organs, the subdivisions of the state, its decentralized authorities, and concepts of citizenship. Special issues include the legal position of aliens, foreign relations, taxing and spending powers, emergency laws, the power of the military, and the constitutional relationship between church and state. Details are presented in such a way that readers who are unfamiliar with specific terms and concepts in varying contexts will fully grasp their meaning and significance. Its succinct yet scholarly nature, as well as the practical quality of the information it provides, make this book a valuable time-saving tool for both practising and academic jurists. Lawyers representing parties with interests in Cyprus will welcome this guide, and academics and researchers will appreciate its value in the study of comparative constitutional law.
