PHD (Honors) Cairo University - Egypt - May 2000

PhD in International Construction Contract Arbitration, States' Contracts. The

Thesis discussed infrastructure Project Contracts in Egypt and developing countries

adopting the civil law legal culture and containing foreign private entities.

The main concern of the thesis is to prove the deterioration of ' Le Contrat

Administratif' in civil law countries. This was done through examining the new

legal nature of the contracts and arbitrations. The new conditions of the new

administrative contracts were analyzed and concluded that the contracts have a

new legal hybrid nature. This entailed the use of new mechanisms in the

settlement of resulting disputes, particularly arbitration; in details ( both FIDIC

form of contracts and ICC arbitration have a special significance in the study).

The thesis consists of two sections. The first section is a comparative study to the

French legal system. The second section is a complete comparative study to the

common law jurisdictions (this was made possible by living in London for more

than one year, as a student in the University of London).
