The Cypriot Left Popular Movement
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-138-23935-7 (ISBN)
The Cypriot left has been largely represented by AKEL (Progressive Party of the Working People) since the early 1940s, as the successor of the Communist Party of Cyprus (1926). This book argues that the party’s history has contributed significantly in rendering the party electorally successful beyond the critical juncture of 1991. Offering analysis of a largely unexplored topic, this book makes an important contribution to scholarship on political parties in Cyprus and the study of radical left schemes of mobilisation in this region. It will be of interest to students and scholars researching Cypriot politics and radical left politics more generally.
Yiannos Katsourides is Director of Prometheus Research Institute and adjunct lecturer at the Department of Social and Political Sciences at the University of Cyprus.
