Abstract

BM, Kıbrıs Adası’ndaki barışı koruma misyonunu 1964’ten beri sürdürmektedir. Bu misyonun rolü ve etkinliği üzerine daha fazla araştırma yapılması ilgi uyandıran bir konu olmuştur. Bu araştırmanın gerekçesi ve önemi, BM’nin adadaki görevini yerine getirme konusundaki rolünü ve etkinliğini inceleme gerekliliğinden kaynaklanmaktadır. Araştırma, alandaki mühim bir konuyu ele aldığı için literatüre önemli bir katkı sağlayabilir. Bu araştırmanın belirgin amacı, misyonun rolünü ve örgütlenmesini analiz etmek ve görevini yerine getirme konusunda etkili olup olmadığına ilişkin çıkarımda bulunmaktır. Konu incelenirken nitel araştırma yöntemi ve olay incelemesi metodu takip edilmiştir. Araştırmanın sonunda; BM’nin barış ve düzeni sürdürmede kısmen, normalleşme konusunda oldukça başarılı, 1964’ten 1974’e kadar toplumlar arasındaki çatışmaların önlenmesi konusunda ise başarısız olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

The Role and Effectiveness of United Nations Peacekeeping Mission in the Cyprus Island

Abstract

The UN continues its peacekeeping mission in the Cyprus Island since 1964. The role and effectiveness of this mission inspires interest for further research. The rationale and the importance of this research lie on the requirement to study the organization, roles, and effectiveness of UN in carrying out its mandate in the island. This research can make a significant contribution to the literature as it addresses a substantial topic in the field. The specific aims of this research are to analyze the roles and organization of this mission and to draw conclusion on whether it has been effective in carrying out its mandate. A qualitative research method and a case study design have been followed in this research. It has been concluded that UN has been quite successful in normalization, and partially successful in maintaining peace and order, but has failed in preventing conflicts between communities from 1964 to 1974.
