Özet
This study examines the emergence of a bureaucratic group which specialized on Cyprus, and explores the impact that this group had on decisionmaking tied to the Cyprus Question, from 1954, when Cyprus became an international issue, to 1974, with the onset of military operations on the island. Drawing on the Cyprus Military Operations as a case study, a bureaucratic-policy approach is adopted to shed light on the place of bureaucratic institutions in the foreign policy decision-making mechanism.
