Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Politics - Political systems in general and in comparison, grade: 2,0, University of Frankfurt (Main), language: English, abstract: This paper explores whether Northern Cyprus is unfairly excluded or misrepresented in major international measurements of democratic quality. It begins by outlining the concept of democracy indices-such as Polity IV, Freedom House, the Economist Intelligence Unit's Democracy Index, V-Dem, and the Democracy Barometer-which aim to quantify the level of democracy in different countries. The author argues that while these indices claim to promote fairness, equality, and transparency, they fail to include non-recognized states like Northern Cyprus, thus creating a form of ethnic or political discrimination. After providing a brief historical overview of Cyprus-its division in 1974 into a Greek-speaking south and a Turkish-speaking north-the paper compares how these indices treat the island. The author highlights that most datasets only list "Cyprus," implicitly referring to the Republic of Cyprus, while Northern Cyprus remains invisible. This omission, according to the paper, reflects political bias and the influence of international recognition rather than objective data collection.
