DESCRIPTION:The Centre for Human Rights and Legal Pluralism and the Peter M
 acKell Chair in Federalism welcome Aristoteles Constantinides\, Law Depart
 ment of the University of Cyprus.\n\nAbstract\n\nThe lecture will give an 
 overview of the Cyprus problem and the various legal and political complex
 ities that have precluded its overdue settlement. It will discuss the vari
