Overview

Qualitative analysis highlights the challenges of legal belonging for IDPs in Lebanon, suggesting structural inequalities in humanitarian response and recovery.

Key Points

  • Prolonged internal displacement transforms legal status into a state of de facto exile, undermining displaced individuals' rights.
  • Key evidence indicates that without domestic enforcement, international obligations cannot protect IDPs' legal status and access to resources.
  • Using qualitative fieldwork, the analysis explores the intersection of class, political affiliation, and sectarian dynamics affecting legal rights.
  • The findings underscore the need for enforceable rights-based frameworks, suggesting that humanitarian efforts alone cannot resolve the complexities of displacement.
