I. International Administration

The authors were asked to consider the best means for international administration of the proposed reformed system of international refugee protection. They suggest that the UNHCR, in its present form, would not be able to administer the proposed system. They explore the possible shape of a successor organization, perhaps a revamped UNHCR, with secured levels of funding, a greater vesting of authority in regional bodies and an enhanced role for non-state actors, which would actively engage in refugee determination and allocation of responsibility for temporary protection among states. This is a substantially abbreviated version of the authors' original work. Please refer to the notice at the end of this section if you are interested in obtaining a full copy of the paper, which is expected to be published in mid-1996

Réfugiés en Russie

Victimes des conflits entre nations qui éclatent actuellement dans plusieurs régions de l'ex-URSS, des réfugiés sont pour la première fois depuis la Deuxième Guerre mondiale apparus en 1989 sur le territoire de l'ancienne Union soviétique. C'est un phénomène qui est lié au processus douloureux de la démocratisation, à la crise économique et politique, à la désintégration de l'URSS.Zaiontchkovskaia Janna, Vitkovskaia Galina, Kouprianova Svetlana.
