This comprehensive book delves into the intricate realm of law and its practice in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). With a clear objective to understand the underlying logic of the legal system in the UAE, it offers a holistic analysis of its laws within the context of its unique cultural and historical backdrop. By transcending the conventional Western model, the book provides a profound understanding of the system on its own terms.
The book explores how the Emirati legal system stands apart from the traditional rule of law, shedding light on its imperial, international, and cultural influences. It meticulously charts the UAE's international legal obligations, highlighting the potential discrepancies between universal interpretations of rights and the Emirati interpretations. This analytical framework is further illustrated through an overview of the legal system, encompassing federal, local, and free zones, emphasizing the diverse legal sources derived from Islamic and colonial law.
In the second section, the book primarily focuses on the contemporary system of law in the UAE, while occasionally delving into the British administration to illustrate the historical roots of certain legal practices. It sheds light on how imperial power exertion during the British administration laid the foundation for the forerunners visible today. Furthermore, the UAE's emergence on the international stage has sparked a growing interest in human rights investigations, which have manifested in significant developments in UAE law.
This invaluable work will serve as a treasured resource for researchers and academics engaged in the fields of Comparative Constitutional Law, Legal Anthropology, Legal Pluralism, and Middle Eastern Studies. It offers a deep dive into the legal landscape of the UAE, providing valuable insights and perspectives that will enrich the understanding of legal systems and their evolution worldwide.
