As refugees are cast out the normal juridical order, their lives are confined to refugee camps, biopolitical spaces that allow for the separation of the alien from the nation. But is the Keywords: camp the only spatial device that separates qualified and expendable lives? What happens when the Space of exception space of the camp overlaps with the space of the city? Taking the Palestinian refugee camp of Shatila in Refugee camp Beirut as a case, this study problematises the utilisation of legal prisms and clear-cut distinctions for the Informal settlements understanding of the production of bare life and spaces of exception. Isolated at the time of its estab- Palestinian refugees ‘ ’ fl Lebanon lishment, Shatila is today part of the so-called misery belt . Physical continuities are also re ected by the distribution of the population as both Palestinians and non-Palestinians, including Lebanese, live in Shatila and the surrounding informal settlements. As physical and symbolic boundaries separating the refugee and the citizen blur, I argue that the exception is not only produced through law and its sus- pension.

    THE MAKING OF A LEFTIST MILIEU: ANTI-COLONIALISM, ANTI-FASCISM, AND THE POLITICAL ENGAGEMENT OF INTELLECTUALS IN MANDATE LEBANON, 1920- 1948. A dissertation presented By Sana Tannoury Karam to The Department of History In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In the field of History Northeastern University Boston, Massachusetts December 2017 1 THE MAKING OF A LEFTIST MILIEU: ANTI-COLONIALISM, ANTI-FASCISM, AND THE POLITICAL ENGAGEMENT OF INTELLECTUALS IN MANDATE LEBANON, 1920- 1948. A dissertation presented By Sana Tannoury Karam ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the College of Social Sciences and Humanities of Northeastern University December 2017 2 This dissertation is an intellectual and cultural history of an invisible generation of leftists that were active in Lebanon, and more generally in the Levant, between the years 1920 and 1948. It chronicles the foundation and development of this intellectual milieu within the political Left, and how intellectuals interpreted leftist principles and struggled to maintain a fluid, ideologically non-rigid space, in which they incorporated an array of ideas and affinities, and formulated their own distinct worldviews. More broadly, this study is concerned with how intellectuals in the post-World War One period engaged with the political sphere and negotiated their presence within new structures of power. It explains the social, political, as well as personal contexts that prompted intellectuals embrace certain ideas. Using periodicals, personal papers, memoirs, and collections of primary material produced by this milieu, this dissertation argues that leftist intellectuals pushed to politicize the role and figure of the ‘intellectual’.

    Parte considerável das lutas políticas contemporâneas está “Desde 1948, os palestinos vivem condenados à humilhação atravessada pelo par “lugar de perpétua. Não podem nem respirar sem permissão. Perderam falar/identidade”. Nesta díade, sua pátria, suas terras, sua água, sua liberdade, tudo. Nem nota-se um esvaziamento trágico do engajamento das esquerdas por sequer têm o direito de eleger seus governantes.

  • Palestine Red Crescent Society
    Palestine Red Crescent Society Appeal No. MAAPS001 Programme Update No.2 This report covers the period of 01/01/2007 to 30/06/2007. In a world of global challenges, continued poverty, inequity, and increasing vulnerability to disasters and disease, the International Federation with its global network, works to accomplish its Global Agenda, partnering with local community and civil society to prevent and alleviate human suffering from disasters, diseases and public health emergencies. Palestine Red Crescent Society ambulance crew in action during the recent Gaza conflict. Photo: Palestine Red Crescent Society. In brief Programme Summary: Despite huge financial challenges and tighter closure of the occupied Palestinian territory (oPt), effectively separating cities and villages from each other and making it almost impossible for Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) staff and volunteers to travel between the West Bank and Gaza Strip, the society has been able to continue carrying out its humanitarian mission for the most vulnerable people. This has been possible thanks to the strong commitment of its employees, volunteers and partners. While health and other social services provided in the oPt by the Palestinian Authority (PA) for longer periods have been crippled by staff strikes, the PRCS has without any interruption continued all its programmes in the oPt as well as in the Diaspora. The vast majority of programme support is received through bilateral agreements, of which most are medium or long-term partnerships. However due to the great need for core cost support, only limited funding has been pledged to start new activities. Through introducing the Operational Alliance concept, the coordination of programme and project support from partners has been improved, which is referring to and based on the PRCS strategy and the central and leading role of the society in the whole process of planning, coordination, implementation, monitoring, evaluation and reporting.

Employment Syrian refugees: employed, but struggling Health care The Way Forward: Toward a More Humane Refugee Policy Recommendations Sonbola: Syrians empowering Syrians through education Plan from the ‘bottom up’ instead of ‘top down’ The special case of the Palestinians: Restore their human rights Recommendation 2 Executive Summary There is no debate about the magnitude of the refugee crisis the world now faces. In its 2014 global-trends report, “World at War,” the UN High Commissioner of Human Rights (UNHCR) warned that the last year has seen the highest number of forcibly displaced people since it began keeping records. “We are witnessing a paradigm change, an unchecked slide into an era in which the scale of global forced displacement as well as the response required is now clearly dwarfing anything seen before,” said Antonio Guterres, UN High Commissioner for Refugees. Most of the ensuing discussion has focused on the immediate crisis of the moment: how to stop smugglers, which countries should accept how many asylum seekers, how host countries can better cope with the influx, how much money is needed from donor countries.
