Reihe: The Palestine Yearbook of International Law

The Palestine Yearbook of International Law is now being edited by Camille Mansour under the auspices of the Birzeit University Institute of Law.This well-established and widely-respected Yearbook, now in its 11th volume, is a primary source of information on significant and topical legal issues relating to the Palestinian territories and wider Palestinian community. It provides, in a single annual volume, not only leading articles on topics of major interest to the international legal community, but also key legislation, court decisions, legal cases, treaties, resolutions, special reports, and other relevant legal material translated from the original Arabic or Hebrew into English.

The 11th volume of the Palestine Yearbook of International Law is devoted specifically to the question of Palestine refugees and includes:

a comparison of the international legal framework designed to protect refugees with the framework already established for the protection of Palestinian Refugees

an examination of the various pieces of legislation enacted to "legally" confiscate Palestinian lands

raising the question as to how the plight of Palestinian refugees may be addressed in the international legal system

legal precedents regarding refugees, including the Dayton accord and UN Resolutions

various agreements signed over the course of the past year

a detailed bibliography of books, monographs and articles

a comprehensive index.

This new volume, as with its predecessors, will be an invaluable source of reference and record on the complex legal issues relating to the Palestinian territories, and will be of prime interest to legal practitioners, researchers, scholars and anyone involved in law, politics, human rights or international relations who has an interest in this region.
