"Haddad's research is a welcome addition to literature on Middle Eastern conflicts and refugee studies in general. It highlights important interconnections between conflicts in neighbouring and supports a regional approach to understanding and resolving conflicts. At the same time, Haddad provides a rare glimpse into political attitudes in Lebanon and his research should encourage more studies of this nature in the region." -- International Journal of Refugee Law. Vol. 17: No. 4 (December 2005)
