Λίγα λόγια για το βιβλίο:

The book “International Law and Diplomacy on the Cyprus Question” deals with the Cyprus problem after the Turkish intervention of 1974, which is a matter of international law.

Although Turkey’s intervention has been the subject of much comment, a fresh study has been warranted. This is so, because this book takes advantage of information not available to many of the earlier commentators. The monograph is distinctive in that it ranges beyond the question whether the intervention was lawful to consider the legal and political consequences, which flowed from it, and looks to the future exploring afresh prospects for a just and viable settlement to the Cyprus problem.

It is noteworthy that the book is broad enough to comprise analysis of various branches of the academic fields of International Law and Politics such as:

• the International Law of Armed Conflict and the Use of Force • International Organizations • the Law of Treaties • Statehood • Human Rights • International Law Theory • Conflict Resolution • Foreign Policy • Constitutional Theory

The book also includes Appendices in which they are included a recording made for the Oxford Colonial Records Project in Oxford on the 23rd/4/1971 and written Opinion of Prof. Sir Eli Lauterpacht (as he then was to the Cyprus Government).

The aim of the book is: to examine from the International Law viewpoint the 1974 Turkish Intervention of Cyprus; actually, whether there are any grounds upon which Turkey may rely in order to establish the legality of intervention, and to explore the legal and political consequences of the intervention; in this way, the book is forward-looking, as prospects for a future settlement of the Cyprus Issue are analyzed in the light of Public International Law, International Politics, and Constitutional Theory.
