Title: Jerusalem : une contribution a la specificite internationale de la ville Authors: Zanghi, Claudio Abstract: After having focused on Jerusalem's legal status during different periods and after having followed the different historical phases of the protection granted to the Sacred Places that belong to the three monotheist religions, together with the ensuing internationalization of the city accompanied by the numerous treaties and statutes issued from the times of the Ottoman Empire till today, it would be desirable to put forth some ideas that could give a contribution towards finding a fair solution. Given the impossibility of finding a unifying solution, which on the other hand would work against the interests of the three religions because a Jewish or Palestinian sovereignty would inevitably place the other religions in a sort of ghetto, it is believed that an effort of good will could be made by using an existing international convention. Reference is here being made to the UNESCO Convention of 23 November 1972 on the world's cultural heritage; since if there is a place that really belongs to a great part of humanity, that is to say to Christianity, to Islam and Judaism, it is really the city of Jerusalem.

Title: The Miskin and the big-man : surviving as a refugee in Malta Authors: Young, Marcia Abstract: Malta passed the Refugees Act in July 2000. Refugees and aid agencies alike had long awaited this law in the hope that it would enable refugees in this country to take more responsibility for their own lives. This paper will make an ethnographic investigation of the situation prevailing in Malta prior to the enactment of this law, discussing some of the issues it was meant to address. We will examine the categories and assumptions of the institutional framework that lay behind the distribution of charity to refugees. The paper will outline the paths and strategies that made particular resources available to refugees. Without legal structures to guarantee refugees their livelihood, they were pushed into relations more akin to traditional networks of patronage. The Government's decision to permit refugees access to particular resources, such as work, has important implications for the ability of refugees to engage with Maltese society as complete social beings.
