Historical Injustice and the Right of Return

Theoretical Inquiries in Law 5 (2):305-316 (2004)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

There are two main sources of theoretical doubt regarding the validity of claims for reparation: the questions arising from the non-identity problem and those arising from the supersession thesis. Neither of them significantly undermines the Palestinian refugees’ claims to reparations and a right of return.
