Abstract

Please note: This article is in Greek. Enlightenment, Propaganda and Counter-Propaganda in Cyprus, 1955–1959: Many parts of the insurgency in Cyprus of the period 1955–1959, while consists a multilevel struggle, remain unknown. One of them is the bloodless war of propaganda which was waging years before 1955 but it was systematised and intensified during the Cyprus insurgency inside the island. The first aim of the study is to reveal the way Greeks and British conducted propaganda in Cyprus and the means by which propaganda and counter-propaganda were exercised during the period. Moreover, we will try to detect the inter-relation between the senders of the messages and the receivers. In this frame we will moreover try to answer the question which was the targeted group each time, the techniques used by each side, the significance of the phraseology and generally the expediencies which were served through propaganda and the various information techniques.
