The Property Rights of Refugees and Internally Displaced Persons:
Beyond Restitution explores how the protection of housing and
property rights can contribute to durable solutions to
displacement. The focus of most of the international community's
recent protection efforts has been on returning displaced persons
to their homes following armed conflict. This prioritization has
been entrenched further by the 2005 United Nations Principles on
Housing and Property Restitution for Refugees and Displaced Persons
(the "Pinheiro Principles"). Yet as Anneke Smit chronicles in this
book, the international community's attempts to promote widespread
return through establishing housing and property restitution
mechanisms have largely failed. Further, this focus on return and
restitution of property has come at the expense of supporting
effectively local integration and resettlement as possible durable
solutions. This book argues that, particularly in cases of
protracted displacement, a range of accepted approaches to the
protection of housing and property rights would be preferable. In
addition to more than a dozen case studies, the discussion draws
throughout on international human rights and refugee law, property
law and theory, and sociological and anthropological literature on
displacement and the meaning of 'home'. The Property Rights of
Refugees and Internally Displaced Personsis based on more than a
decade of the author's extensive academic research and practical
experience on displacement issues. It will be of considerable
interest to those with academic and policy interests in the rights
of refugees and displaced persons, and theories of property.
