Lebanon is receiving most Syrian refugees per capita of all countries surrounding Syria. The most marginalized within Lebanon, the Palestinian refugees that came to Lebanon in 1948 are also hosting arriving Syrian refugees. This study aims to better understand the interplay and interrelations between hosts and refugees. This study is concerned with the overarching question: What is the relationship between the Palestinians hosting the Syrian refugees, and how do they cope with the already increasingly narrow resources they have at their disposal, and how are the social relationships between the two refugee groups in Lebanon? Theoretically, this study explores and develops a synthesis of a pluralist society model and the ethno-class model, a new approach that best can describe how interrelations in the refugee context in Lebanon are developing. The refugee camp Wavel outside the city of Baalbek in the north serves as a case for this study. Semistructured interviews and focal group discussions have been made with both Palestinian hosts, as well as Syrian refugees.
