Multidimensional Analysis of the Cyprus Problem: New Ways of Solution from the Perspective of Constituent Element, EU Integration and Egalitarian Federal Structure
This study aims to present a new multidisciplinary paradigm for the settlement of the Cyprus problem, aiming to synthesize the disciplines of international relations, law, sociology and history. Within the framework of the "constituent element" status of the Turkish Cypriot people recognized in international law and political science, a detailed critical analysis of past settlement attempts is made in order to produce a permanent solution in line with European Union (EU) law. The study examines the theories of conflict resolution and peacebuilding, the principles of federalism and constitutional law, as well as the EU's enlargement policies and legal framework, and proposes innovative solution models in which the Turkish Cypriot people can survive as a recognized community within EU law on the basis of the right to self-determination and the principle of political equality. Using a combination of quantitative and qualitative research methods, this study is supported by techniques such as document analysis, in-depth interviews, case studies and critical discourse analysis. It emphasizes the importance of outcome-oriented negotiations, with a particular focus on sustainable peacebuilding and social reconciliation.
