This paper reviews literature on protracted refugee situations and constructs a theoretical structure to explain the entrenched nature of refugee camps – a de facto fourth ‘durable solution.’ It argues that the relations among UNHCR, state governments (developed and developing), and refugees are often rigid and create a trajectory for similar future relations and for continued protracted refugee situations.

This paper aims to provide an overview of the political complexities of the repatriation issue and a consideration of the pre-conditions for human security, which are necessary before a future repatriation is possible. It investigates the key elements of the repatriation question in view of international protection principles and the wider political setting in which the issue is situated, involving the host country, country of origin, UNHCR, and the refugees’ representatives.

This paper highlights that approximately 120,000 refugees are living in Ifo, Dagahaley and Hagadera. Most of them originated from the regions of ‘Jubadda Hoose’ and ‘Shabeellaha Hoose’, the lowlands of the two main rivers in South Somalia. Research was carried out in the three refugee camps as well as in Nairobi (Eastleigh) and Garissa, the Kenyan towns where most Somali refugees can be found. The author of this paper intended to find an alternative representation of refugees, who are often depicted either as vulnerable victims or cunning crooks.
