  • Descrição: In a roundtable discussion, several executives shared their views on the implementation of the guiding principles on internal displacement. Roberta Cohen, non-resident Senior Fellow at the Brookings Institution and former co-director of the Brookings-Bern Project on Internal Displacement, said in drafting the Principles, the legal team's decision to reflect existing law was not easily accomplished. The temptation was always there to improve on the law when gaps and gray areas were found. Chaloka Beyani Senior Lecturer in Law at the London School of Economics and Political Science also said it is contended that these Guidelines represent the use of soft law as a means of constructing a coherent framework of reference in which disparate aspects of hard international law deriving from international humanitarian law, human rights, and refugee law by analogy, are brought to bear on the protection of internally displaced persons in international law.
