Re­viv­ing the 'golden age' of Egyp­tian private in­ter­na­tion­al law

De­vel­op­ment sum­mary

In­tro­du­cing Zamzam's Arabic-language work on Egyp­tian private in­ter­na­tion­al law, Béligh El­balti starts from the ob­ser­va­tion that the field in Egypt has long been de­scribed as stag­nant. Egypt, he notes, built a re­l­at­ively com­pre­hens­ive frame­work cov­er­ing choice of law in Art­icles 10-28 of the 1948 Civil Code, in­ter­na­tion­al jur­is­dic­tion in Art­icles 28-35 of the 1968 Code of Civil and Com­mer­cial Pro­ced­ure and the en­force­ment of for­eign judg­ments in Art­icles 296-301 of the same Code.
