Abstract

The question of Palestinian refugees has long been recognised as one of the core issues that would need to be addressed in any eventual Israeli-Palestinian peace agreement. This article examines compensation for property seizure and forced displacement, an aspect that has figured in every round of major peace talks on permanent status issues for the past quarter of a century. Drawing upon research, informal 'track two' discussions and official negotiations, it highlights the challenge of crafting arrangements that would be both politically and practically feasible. © Copyright Cambridge University Press and The Faculty of Law, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem 2018.
