Abstrakt (EN)

Refugee camps, like any large human groups, are not free from internal crime that must be fought against. This raises a question on the basis of what law it should be done. The 1951 Convention on the Protection of Refugees obliges to respect the law of the host country in which territory the camps are located. In the case of Kenya and some other African countries, their authorities have almost completely withdrawn from using their own state law in the camps in favour of UNHCR and its executive partners, while these have withdrawn form enforcing international law. The question is, what law is there in this situation? According to the author's research, the customary law rules in the camps, constituting a kind of expression of an independence of refugees who though originating form colonized peoples have never been fully subordinated to any external power.
