Images of "The Other": "The Turk" in Greek Cypriot Children's Imaginations.
Spyrou, Spyros
Race, Ethnicity and Education, v5 n3 p255-72 Sep 2002
Examined how Greek Cypriot elementary students perceived, imagined, and talked about Turks as a people, illustrating the process of ethnic identity construction in childhood in contemporary Greek-Cypriot society. Ethnographic data illustrate how children's stereotypical constructions of Turks are largely informed by their school learning but are also more complex constructions than the stereotypes themselves suggest.
