European Journal of Social Sciences – Volume 5, Number 3 (2007) The Post-Conflict Educational Establishment of Cyprus: Civic Sensibilities within a Divided European Union State James Barbre Visiting Assistant Professor 213 Willard Hall, School of Educational Studies, College of Education Oklahoma State University, Stillwater, Oklahoma 74078 E-mail: j.o.barbre@okstate.edu Tel: (405) 744-2016; Fax: (405) 744-7758 Abstract The use of schooling and orientation of school policy does not strictly serve the purposes of enlightening the population or preparing them for the future. In the event that conflict has been a recent event, regardless of the context, schooling and the execution of the civics curriculum may also be utilized as a means to separate groups of people, thus making reconciliation all the more difficult. Cyprus is an example of such a place where conflict has occurred in recent memory and the outcomes of that conflict continue to divide segments of the population and a younger generation. As a result, educational institutions in the major ethnic communities, namely Greek and Turkish, have become a reflection of the events that separate the island’s populations. They have been built and sustained in the name of ethnic allegiance and cultural identity. This lack of pragmatism is greatly extending the time required for the island’s populations to reunite. This article will examine the situation in through historical analysis and suggest an inevitable outcome, should the conflict go on as it has and not be resolved and the implication that will hold for schools. Introduction and Purpose Cyprus is a small island with a long and complicated history. Not only for the relations between its people, but with regard to their relationship with the nations that have at one time ruled or exercised influence. Series of conflicts and events between the various ethnic groups, of which Greek and Turkish are the largest, have culminated with the establishment of isolationist tendencies and the attitude of marginalization toward the each other. The tone and substance of the resulting political relations have shaped the way native Cypriots regard each other, both historically and in the contemporary sense, as individuals and as larger groups. This has had a resounding impact on the education students have received at all levels of school, in both the Greek and Turkish communities. This fact has a substantial set of implications not only in that it separates the two largest ethnic groups of the island, but also in that it influences the realities, perceptual and otherwise, that they construct in reference to each other 1 .These attitudes have characterized their civic, historic and national identity as it is taught and experienced through education as being juxtaposed to each other. There is a two-fold reason that this situation is worthy of analysis. First, it is important to articulate the nature of the historical interactions, sometimes peaceful and other times not, as experienced by the Greek and Turkish Cypriot populations. The relationships they have had are hardly clear cut with regard to cause and effect because the cause/effect factors do not strictly lie with one group. Causal factors are attributed to the other group by both sides for the way things have turned out 1 Richmond, O. (1998). “Implications for making peace: building negotiating positions during the Cyprus conflict.” Paper delivered at ACGTA seminar in London. 77
