This book addresses the involuntary and arbitrary displacement of
individuals resulting from armed conflict and gross human rights
violations. It shows that forcible displacement constitutes a
serious violation of international law and of fundamental community
interests. Armed Conflict and Forcible Displacement provides a
critical legal analysis of the contemporary international
framework, permeating forcible displacement in these circumstances
and explores the rights that individuals possess with specific
focus on the right not to be displaced and, where this fails, the
right to return home and to receive property restitution. In doing
so, this volume marries together different fields of international
law and builds on the case studies of Cyprus, Colombia, Cambodia
and Syria. While the case studies considered here are far from
exhaustive, they are either little explored or present significant
challenges due to the magnitude of displacement or contested
international jurisprudence. Through this analysis, the volume
exposes some of the legal challenges that individuals encounter in
being protected from forcible displacement, as well as the legal
obstacles that persist in ensuring the return of and the recovery
of property by the displaced. It will be of interest to those
interested in the fields of international law, human rights law, as
well as conflict and war studies.
