Globalization and New International Public Works Agreements in Developing Countries

Rezensionen / Stimmen

'The book represents a valuable contribution to legal academic and practitioner literature. The author subjects globalisation principles and the doctrine of competition upon structures and delivery mechanisms of international public works agreements in developing countries. The author captures with authoritative structure, accuracy and precision the pulse of the substantive legal framework of international public contracts embracing works and construction infrastructure with its current dynamics and past developments.'

Christopher H. Bovis, University of Hull, UK

'This volume presents a broad view of its subject and provides useful insights into a number of complex topics, such as: legal globalization, the definition and legal nature of international public works agreements, the use of PPPs in developing countries, and the role of arbitration. In tackling some challenging legal issues, the author has produced a book that will be of value to those interested in the effects of globalization in developing countries.'

Mahmoud Samir El-Sharkawi, Cairo University, Egypt

'This book presents a valuable contribution to international public works agreements theory in developing countries. It signifies the influence of globalization and the flow of Anglo-American legal culture to civil law countries. The author provides an in-depth analysis of the substance of international infrastructure agreements mechanisms and arbitration in these agreements, where developing nations are involved. The volume presents a useful resource for academics worldwide.' Yehya El Gamal, Cairo University, Egypt

'The author has immense experience in the law, and public policy associated with the subject and this publication will provide a very useful insight for those unfamiliar with civil law concepts with an interest in providing construction services in the Middle East which in many jurisdictions relies upon law and jurisprudence emanating from Egypt.'
