Palestinian refugees in the context of Lebanese policy of non-integration

The thesis "Palestinian refugees in the context of Lebanese policy of non-integration" represented a complex research about one of the most important problems of the international community. The research of the Palestinian refugee question has fundamental importance both at national and international level, because the problem can influence the realities of the world and particularly of the states hosting the refugees. The need of understanding the historical background and the causes of the Arab-Israeli conflict is very important in order to provide the best solutions for the refugee problem. The comprehension of the continuous armed struggle between the parties involved in the conflict and the permanent violation of the human rights is significant in securing the right assistance for the needy persons. In order to maintain the security of the international community and the agreement between the Israel and other Arab states, the Palestinian question is the basic element that should be solved. Im particular, the research of the policies of Lebanon towards the Palestinians is absolutely necessary, considering that the massive violation of the human rights and the inhuman living conditions of the refugees are unseen in another hosting country. The regional security is dependent on finding a solution for the Palestinians from Lebanon, because the economic, social and political exclusion of the refugees has created a psychological anxiety, which can determine conflicts in the society. As it was seen in the history, the Palestinians had been the reason for a series of armed conflicts in the region involving the most important actors, for civil war and the threat for Lebanon‟s security, determining external occupation. In the analysis of the Palestinian refugees‟ exclusion on account of the Lebanese policies, there are a series of fundamental questions. Firstly, what was the context that determined the Palestinians to arrive to Lebanon and remain in a state that has not provided them any rights? In addition, what is the meaning of the refugee problem and how is treated by the international community and law? Another question is about the situation of the Palestinian refugees in the world and more specific what are their living conditions in Lebanon? The main question of the thesis is about the policies promoted by Lebanon towards the Palestinian refugees. Ultimately, an important question regards the differences between the Palestinian refugees from Lebanon and the ones from another two states under UNRWA areas of operation, Jordan and Syria.
