A curious case of Cyprus: is minority discourse eligible?
Abstrakt
The article points to several examples from contemporary Cypriot politics and culture that would expose a change in how Greek Cypriots think about themselves. It is suggested that they now regard themselves no longer merely as part of a greater Hellenic world, but rather as a particular minority, not (yet) ethnically diverse, that stays within its boundaries.
