International Balkan University-Skopje, He delivers courses such as Introduction to Politics, Theory of International Relations, Balkan, Caucasus and Middle East politics. He is expected to start teaching at Istanbul Sabahattin Zaim University- Istanbul, Turkey. The problem of Cyprus has been analyzed deeply from variety of local, regional and international perspectives. This is because the Cyprus conflict it is an historical important issue within the international agenda, it has been and will remain as such till the counter parts will find a common interest or a common solution (a substantial way out). As much as the reader hinters within the tremendous great number of books and articles written for the Cyprus case it realizes that there are many perspectives and historical issue that have to be revealed and understood in order to analyze the today's political circumstances in Cyprus and why not in the world as well. In this paper I will try to elaborate the historical, political and institutional conditions of Cyprus during the period of the Ottoman and British establishments. Even though Cyprus has been managed or governed from many important historical powers, I will independently say that the most important are the Ottomans and British periods. This is to be said, because for the both periods we have a great number of written historical and important local, regional and international events recorded and scientifically analyzed. The time frame of their leadership and governmental infrastructures played enormously for their importance. Both of them consciously or un consciously left behind an important cultural and political legacy that today Cyprus differs from other regions and places in the world. As I said before I will shortly try to elaborate as well the social and institutional background of both establishments and to see to what extent they have tried to build stability and sustainability of the island and the region as whole. This work of mine will give a small perspective for the readers about the substantial political and social conditions during this two very important periods of the Cyprus history.
