  • Nicosia Beyond Barriers – Voices from a Divided City

    € 18.00
    Add to cart

    Cyprus’ capital Nicosia has been split by a militarised border for decades. In this collection, writers from all sides of the divide reimagine the past, present and future of their city.

    Here, Cypriot-Greeks coexist alongside Cypriot-Turks, the north with the south, town with countryside, dominant voices with the marginalised. This is a city of endless possibilities – a place where an anthropologist from London and a talkative Marxist are hunted by a gunman in the Forbidden zone; where a romance between two aspiring Tango dancers falls victim to Nicosia’s time difference; and where an artist finds his workplace on a rooftop, where he paints a horizon disturbed only by birds.

    Together, these writers journey beyond the beaten track creating a complete picture of Nicosia, the world’s last divided capital city, that defies barriers of all kinds.

  • REFUGEEHOOD AND THE POSTCONFLICT SUBJECT – RECONSIDERING MINOR LOSSES

    € 30.00
    Add to cart
    Examines the effects of culturally specific interpretations of refugeehood with an ethnographic focus on Cyprus.Being a “refugee” is not simply a matter of law, determination procedures, or the act of flight. It is an ontological condition, structured by the politics of law, affect, and territory. Refugeehood and the Postconflict Subject explores the variable facets of refugeehood, their interconnections, and their intended and unintended consequences. Grounded on more than a decade of research on the island of Cyprus, Olga Maya Demetriou considers how different groups of “refugees” coexist and how this coexistence invites reinterpretations of the law and its politics. The long-standing political conflict in Cyprus produced not only the paradigmatic, formally recognized “refugee” but also other groups of displaced persons not so categorized. By examining the people and circumstances, Demetriou reveals the tensions and contestations within international refugee regimes and argues that any reinterpretation that accounts for these tensions also needs to recognize that these “minor” losses are not incidental to refugeehood but an intrinsic part of the wider issues.

    “This book offers a number of important insights with respect to refugees and refugeehood. Through the notion of ‘minor’ losses, rather than the conventional focus on ‘big’ losses, the author argues that refugees do not move from conflict to safety but from one conflict into another, or rather into a complexity of conflicting and conflictual situations and circumstances. The idea that ‘minor’ losses are not incidental to refugeehood but an intrinsic part of the wider issues at play is an important insight.” — Leonie Ansems de Vries, author of Re-Imagining a Politics of Life: From Governance of Order to Politics of Movement

    Olga Maya Demetriou is Associate Professor in Post Conflict Reconstructionand State-Building, at the Durham Global Security Institute, School of Government and International Affairs, Durham University. She is the author of Capricious Borders: Minority, Population, and Counter-Conduct Between Greece and Turkey.

    Οι σημαντικότεροι πολιτισμοί της αρχαιότητας είχαν συγκεντρωθεί γύρω από τη Μεσόγειο, μια θάλασσα εξαιρετικά σημαντική, κέντρο της γης, ίσως, για εκείνη την εποχή. Πολιτισμοί πολύ διαφορετικοί μεταξύ τους, αλλά όχι τελείως ξένοι ο ένας προς τον άλλο. Ένας ανεκτίμητος πλούτος αγαθών και ιδεών διακινούνταν ανάμεσα στους λαούς της Μεσογείου, επηρεάζοντας τη ζωή και την τέχνη τους, δημιουργώντας ένα αμάγαλμα μοναδικής πολιτισμικής αξίας. Η έκθεση «Πλόες» συγκεντρώνει 1200 αντικείμενα από 10 μεσογειακές χώρες, προσπαθώντας να υπογραμμίσει τις διαφορές και τις ομοιότητες και να αποδώσει τις αληθινές διαστάσεις της Μεσογείου και του πολιτισμικού φαινομένου των περί αυτήν λαών. Είναι μια τεράστια προσπάθεια, εξαιρετικής έμπνευσης, πραγματική πρόκληση για την Πολιτιστική Ολυμπιάδα. Η υλοποίησή της από το Μουσείο Κυκλαδικής Τέχνης έδινε όλα τα εχέγγυα για την αρτιότερη παρουσίαση των εκθεμάτων και την ανάδειξη των θεματικών ενοτήτων. Οι πολιτισμοί της αρχαιότητας έχουν το χάρισμα να τραβούν τα βλέμματά μας, με την κομψότητα και την αρτιότητα των κατασκευών, αλλά και με τις ιδέες και τις αξίες που υιοθέτησαν και μετέδωσαν στους μεταγενέστερους.

    Ο ανά χείρας Κατάλογος οφείλεται στο όραμα ενός ανθρώπου και αποτελεί επιστέγασμα του έργου του.
    Όταν ο καθηγητής Νικόλαος Σταμπολίδης πρότεινε την Έκθεση αυτή στο Διοικητικό Συμβούλιο του Ιδρύματος, δεν είχαμε διανοηθεί το μέγεθος και την έκτασή της ούτε το εύρος της εργασίας, που θα απαιτούσε η προετοιμασία της. Την εγκρίναμε με χαρά και στην συνέχεια απευθυνθήκαμε στην Πολιτιστική Ολυμπιάδα, η οποία δέχθηκε να την στηρίξει και να την συμπεριλάβει στο πρόγραμμά της.
    Ακολούθησαν πολυάριθμα ταξίδια σε όλες τις χώρες για την επιλογή των αντικειμένων, ατέλειωτες διαπραγματεύσεις σε διάφορες γλώσσες, «κυνηγητό» των συγγραφέων για τη σύνταξη των εισαγωγικών κειμένων και των λημμάτων και ετήσια προετοιμασία έως την τελική διάρθρωση και επιμέλεια του Καταλόγου αυτού.[…]
