This study explores an effect of violent conflict in Cyprus—Missing Persons—and the process of exhumations. By interviewing experts on the Cypriot conflict about the exhumations process, Fics has revealed the challenges and successes that may arise for sustainable peace and healing in Cyprus and beyond.
Violent conflict created a divide in Cyprus (1950–1974) that still exists to this day between Turkish and Greek Cypriots. This study explores specifically an effect of violent conflict—Missing Persons and the bi-communal process of their humanitarian return. This process is important for peacebuilding because it empowers individuals, families, communities, and nation-states to satisfy basic human psycho-social needs in order to deal with the trauma of past violence, to recognize loss and grieve, and to seek closure of uncertainty to prevent the transgenerational transmission of trauma and escalation of violence between and within ethnic societies.
