Abstract

The article emphasizes the survival methods of Syrian refugees in Lebanon following their displacement as a result of the civil war that started in 2011. Topics discussed include the refusal of the Lebanese government to set up official camps due to its experience with the Palestinians' establishment of armed groups that led to the civil war between 1975 and 1990, the hospitality of host communities to Syrian refugees, and reports of violence and physical abuse toward refugees.
