This study addresses the legal aspects of displacement and property as they are affecting the Republic of Cyprus and its citizens. It focuses on two distinct areas of law and policy: first, the law and policy regime dealing with the provision of services and benefits to Greek-Cypriot displaced persons and others who have properties in the north following the 1974 war; and secondly, the legal issues relating to the properties of displaced persons, Greek-Cypriots and Turkish-Cypriots, regarding the questions of ownership and the rights to property as provided by law in the Republic of Cyprus.
