Turkish Cypriots tend to have negative moral opinions about the origins of their state, the internationally unrecognised "Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus" (TRNC). This can partially be explained by the political confinement and the relative economic deprivation they face; however, the link between these and the "emotive crisis" that Turkish Cypriots feel vis-à-vis the TRNC has not been studied. Common attitudes towards the state include irony and melancholy. My project intends to study this "emotive crisis" among the very individuals that have built this state. I intend to ethnographically study Turkish Cypriot nationalist former militants who fought during the intercommunal civil war in the 1960s and 1970s, and who later became the "makers" of the TRNC. The questions this project will address are as follows; On what kinds of moral judgments did nationalist former militants base their state building practices? What were/are the contradictions of their moral judgments?What practices do former militants enact today to cope with those contradictions? How do nationalist former militants in northern Cyprus cope with the emotive remainders of their past actions?

土族塞人往往对其国家——未被国际承认的“北塞浦路斯土耳其共和国”（TRNC）——的起源抱有负面的道德观念。这可以部分解释为他们面临的政治限制和相对经济匮乏；然而，这些与土族塞人对北塞浦路斯土耳其共和国感受到的“情感危机”之间的联系尚未得到研究。对国家的常见态度包括讽刺和忧郁。我的项目旨在研究建立这个国家的个人中的这种“情感危机”。我打算从人种学角度研究土族塞人民族主义前武装分子，他们曾在 20 世纪 60 年代和 1970 年代的部族间内战中作战，后来成为北塞浦路斯土耳其共和国的“缔造者”。该项目将解决的问题如下：民族主义前激进分子的国家建设实践基于什么样的道德判断？他们的道德判断存在哪些矛盾？前激进分子今天采取了哪些做法来应对这些矛盾？北塞浦路斯的民族主义前武装分子如何应对他们过去行动的情感残留？
