Description
The conflict over Palestine has produced one of the most tragic and compelling refugee crises of the post-WWII era. In the Palestinian-Israeli Declaration of Principles, signed in Washington, DC, in 1993, the fate of the 3.4 million Palestinian refugees was identified as one of the outstanding issues to be addressed in subsequent negotiations. This book ponders the status of Palestinian refugees in international law by focusing on the position of Palestinians in both the Arab world and the Western countries. It contains a thorough, useful analysis of various areas of international law--including refugee law, laws relating to stateless persons, humanitarian law, and human rights law--and shows the relevance of each to the provision of worldwide protection for Palestinian refugees.
