according to the Guiding Principles on Internal Displacement5, are persons or groups of persons who
have been forced to leave their homes or places of habitual residence as a result of – or in order to
avoid the effects of – armed conflict, situations of generalized violence, violations of human rights,
natural disasters or human-made disasters, and who have not crossed an internationally recognised
state border. / Thesis (LLM (Human Rights and Democratisation in Africa)) -- University of Pretoria, 2010. / A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Law University of Pretoria, in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Masters of Law (LLM in Human Rights and Democratisation in Africa).
