    NEW ISSUES IN REFUGEE RESEARCH Working Paper No. 65 Pastoral society and transnational refugees: population movements in Somaliland and eastern Ethiopia 1988 - 2000 Guido Ambroso UNHCR Brussels E-mail : [email protected] August 2002 Evaluation and Policy Analysis Unit Evaluation and Policy Analysis Unit United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees CP 2500, 1211 Geneva 2 Switzerland E-mail: [email protected] Web Site: www.unhcr.org These working papers provide a means for UNHCR staff, consultants, interns and associates to publish the preliminary results of their research on refugee-related issues. The papers do not represent the official views of UNHCR. They are also available online under ‘publications’ at <www.unhcr.org>. ISSN 1020-7473 Introduction The classical definition of refugee contained in the 1951 Refugee Convention was ill- suited to the majority of African refugees, who started fleeing in large numbers in the 1960s and 1970s. These refugees were by and large not the victims of state persecution, but of civil wars and the collapse of law and order. Hence the 1969 OAU Refugee Convention expanded the definition of “refugee” to include these reasons for flight. Furthermore, the refugee-dissidents of the 1950s fled mainly as individuals or in small family groups and underwent individual refugee status determination: in-depth interviews to determine their eligibility to refugee status according to the criteria set out in the Convention. The mass refugee movements that took place in Africa made this approach impractical. As a result, refugee status was granted on a prima facie basis, that is with only a very summary interview or often simply with registration - in its most basic form just the name of the head of family and the family size.1 In the Somali context the implementation of this approach has proved problematic.

  • Somaliland – Interest-Free but Not Yet Shari’Ah-Compliant Economy/ R.Bekkin // New Horizon
    Bekkin R. Somaliland – Interest-free but not yet Shari’ah-compliant economy/ R.Bekkin // New Horizon. – 2007 (1428). – No. 166. – October-December (Shawwal-Dhu al-Hijjah). – P. 46-49. Somaliland - Interest free but not yet Shari’ah-compliant economy R. Bekkin Having survived a civil war and living in international isolation, Somaliland, a de facto independent state in the territory of Somalia, is gradually developing its financial sector. The banking services are interest-free in this entirely Muslim republic. But does it mean they are Shari’ah-compliant? Renat Bekkin, PhD in Law, senior researcher at the Institute for African Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences, reports. In 1991, the unified country of Somalia de facto ceased to exist. The civil war, which had broken out three years earlier, had led to the break up of the state into three separate areas: Somaliland, Puntland and Somalia. At the time one could hardly call the former British colony and then province of Somalia – Somaliland – a country. It was virtually a bare territory with its infrastructure completely destroyed by the war. The world community did not rush to recognise the new state and hardly anyone would have predicted that the country would survive. But 16 years on, Somaliland continues to exist as a state despite international political isolation and weak central government. The main source of welfare for Somaliland's citizens is not international aid, but money sent by their relatives from abroad. Because of the underdevelopment of the financial sector, money transfer operators have practically taken on the role of banks.
