The Refugee Convention defines refugees as those having well founded fear
of being persecuted for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a
particular social group or political opinion. Contracting Parties are obliged to
protect refugees mainly through the obligation of non-refoulement. The
Convention was originally based on the notion of political persecution and
formulated during the Cold War between the East and the West. After the
collapse of the Cold War, new types of persecution and persecutions not based
on traditional categories have appeared. Under this circumstance, at issue is the
protection of refugee women through the notion of membership of a particular
social group. Gender is a very broad concept and therefore including women in
membership of a particular social group can be controversial. However,
UNHCR’s interpretation and states’s practice confirm that gender can be
considered as membership of a social group. Some states grant refugee status
even to those who are persecuted by local communities or individuals where the
state is reluctant to protect the victim. This shows that the Convention is
flexible to cope with emerging new types of persecution. On the other hand, it
means that the universal definition of membership of social group has not been
made. It would be desirable to develop our own notion of membership of a
social group, especially to protect refugee women.
