    • According to N. Kliot and Y. Mansfield, 'Divided Cities - Case Studies of Conflict and Territorial Organization', Progress in Planning 52 (1999) pp. 167-226, division is artificial in the sense that it has been artificially imposed from external sources, usually by great powers at the end of a war, or as a result of the involvement in a war, whereas partition is a result of internal schism that tears societies apart.

    • The pragmatic model for division or partition follows six stages: 1) Pre-partition and division stage: Cities function as one entity. 2) The actual division or partitioning: Cities are faced with intercommunal conflicts and/or total war. Superpowers or other states are involved. 3) Initial division or partition mutual non-recognition and intense ideological or national-ethnic-antagonism between the two partitioned/ divided sides of the city. 4) Middle Term Division is characterised by declining hostility between units, and by implicit or explicit mutual acceptance of co-existence. 5) Rapprochement: Close economic cooperation with respect to tourism, trade, and limited joint administrative apparatus being established. 6 Unification is marked by physical eradication of the divide or partition and the unification of not only the divided -partitioned cities, but also of the divided nations and the partitioned states. N. Kliot and Y. Mansfield (note 1) pp. 167-226

The UN Peace Plan, popularly known as the Annan Plan (Annan, 2002, available at , accessed December 2002, was named after the Secretary-General. After several revisions following complex rounds of negotiations, the final version of the Plan (Annan, 2004, available at , accessed March 2004) was submitted for separate referenda on both sides of Cyprus on 24 April 2004. It was approved by the Turkish Cypriots who voted 65% in favour, while it was resoundingly rejected by 76% of the Greek Cypriots.

This could be evaluated as a step leading towards the process of rapprochement between parts.
