Paper Title
Assignment of Contract under the UNIDROIT Principles 2016. The Position of Arab National Laws
Abstract
Assignment of contract is regulated in detail under the UNIROIT Principles 2016. This approach is not found
under the vast majority of national laws all around the world. Nevertheless, waiver of contract is known under Arab Civil
Codes, however, waiver is provided for as mere few applications under some contracts, but not a theory. Under the
Principles, formation of assignment of contract, effects and other legal issues are discussed. This study concluded the
importance of regulating assignment of contract as a doctrine and not merely providing for some applications within the
Civil Code.
