The paper "Coexistence in the Disappeared Mixed Neighbourhoods of Nicosia" by Ahmet An delves into the historical and demographic landscape of Nicosia, with a particular focus on the vanished mixed neighbourhoods that once epitomised cultural coexistence. It provides a comprehensive historical account of these neighbourhoods, shedding light on the intricate fabric of cultural coexistence that once characterised the cityscape. Furthermore, the paper presents census data from 1946, which showcases the diverse ethnic makeup of Nicosia's neighbourhoods and the peaceful cohabitation of various communities.
"Coexistence in the disappeared mixed neighbourhoods in Nicosia" was first published at the conference "Nicosia: The Last Divided Capital in Europe" on June 20, 2011.
