Dear June,
Please send the questions in a separate email to the list, and I will see if I can get the

Dear Colleagues,
I received the following email (and list of questions) from a professor at Drew
University, and have her permission to forward her queries to you. The topics/questions
are very broad-based—each could be a dissertation of its own! I’ve sent her some
suggestions, particularly about laws and labor legislation in Cyprus and the LC country
reports for Cyprus, etc., but questions 1-3 are so broad, I barely knew where to begin,
particularly since we have a small Greek collection, and definitely nothing “special”
about Cyprus.
If you think you might be able to help her (at least from the Greek side), please contact
her directly. She does read Greek and has a translator for anything useful that might be
in Turkish. I tried adding the text of the 4 questions she’d like to answer, but it made
the email message too large for our listserve. If you think you’d like to work on this
query, I can send you her detailed list of questions separately.
Many thanks.
June
Dear June:
My goal is to be published by The Journal of Cyprus Studies. In order to provide a
balanced presentation I must include more information about the northern part of Cyprus.
The journal has accepted the article pending more research and revisions.
All four questions pertain to the status of women in northern Cyprus. The answers must be
from the point of view of women who lived in northern Cyprus during the post-colonial
decade: 1960-1970. However, there may be government documents or books and articles by
intellectuals and academics that reveal the effect of the presence of the United Nations
Peacekeeping Force on the Cyprus economy and welfare (particularly the health and
education of women) during the post-colonial decade. For example, was there an improvement
in the longevity of women after UNFICYP arrived? The answer to this question would be a
salient point. My article covers these ten years only.
The article entitled, "The Profound Transformation from Poverty to Professionalism of
Cypriot Women a a Consequence of the Transition to Paid Work" is based on a chapter
in my dissertation (which is online) -- Cyprus,1960-1970: An Intellectual History of the
Cold War Toll, the United Nations, and Decolonization.
Do you have any special collections on Cyprus?
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
Dr. Margaret W. Bartlett, Doctor of Letters in Historical Studies and Contemporary
Studies, Drew University, 2013. Author of Cyprus, The United Nations, and the Quest for
Unity, 2007.
