Focusing on Georgia, this book presents a comprehensive theoretical and empirical study on the implementation of durable solutions for internally displaced persons (IDPs). Drawing upon extensive field research, it delves into the significant challenges Georgia faces in establishing global norms, as well as the ongoing hardships experienced by IDPs. Moreover, the book uncovers both the progress and setbacks in implementing durable solutions. By seamlessly integrating approaches from humanistic studies, international relations, and organizational sociology, this book elucidates the intricate interplay between norms and actors at and among three societal levels: the international, national, and local.

The international level encompasses the broader geopolitical context in which IDPs operate, including international treaties, agreements, and organizations. It examines how international norms and standards shape the response to displacement and the role of international actors, such as the United Nations, regional organizations, and non-governmental organizations, in promoting durable solutions.

The national level focuses on the domestic policies, institutions, and legal frameworks within Georgia that govern the treatment of IDPs. It explores the challenges and opportunities for the government to implement sustainable policies and programs that address the needs of IDPs, including access to basic services, housing, education, and healthcare.

The local level emphasizes the role of communities, local organizations, and grassroots initiatives in supporting and accommodating IDPs. It examines how local norms, values, and practices influence the reception and integration of IDPs into their host communities, as well as the challenges and opportunities for community-based organizations to provide assistance and support.

Throughout the book, case studies and examples from Georgia and other countries are used to illustrate the theoretical concepts and empirical findings. These case studies provide a rich context for understanding the complexities and nuances of implementing durable solutions for IDPs, and they highlight the successes and failures of different approaches and strategies.

By examining the implementation of durable solutions for IDPs in Georgia, this book offers valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities faced by countries in addressing displacement and promoting sustainable development. It contributes to the growing body of literature on IDPs and provides a practical guide for policymakers, practitioners, and researchers interested in developing effective responses to displacement crises.
