(1895-1971) is one of the most prominent jurists to emerge to date in the Arab world. His alarm at the growing social gap in his country, Egypt, during the first half of the twentieth century, fueled his vision of establishing moral social order by means of a new civil code. Although Sanh?r??s chosen tool was the legal text, this book argues that his vision was essentially a social one: to introduce the principles of compassion, solidarity and fairness, alongside progress and pragmatism, into polarized Egyptian society, whereby property laws acquired a social function, the laws of partnership were perceived as having an educational value, and contract law was activated as a balance favoring the weaker members of society. Accordingly, this book examines the drafting of the Egyptian Civil Code, exposing the hitherto unknown sociological strata of this act of legislation. 410 0$aStudies in Islamic law and society ;$vv. 29. 606 $aCivil law$zEgypt$xCodification$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aCivil law$xSocial aspects$zEgypt 606 $aProperty$xSocial aspects$zEgypt 606 $aObligations (Law)$xSocial aspects$zEgypt 606 $aContracts$xSocial aspects$zEgypt 615 0$aCivil law$xCodification$xHistory 615 0$aCivil law$xSocial aspects 615 0$aProperty$xSocial aspects 615 0$aObligations (Law)$xSocial aspects 615 0$aContracts$xSocial aspects 676 $a346.62 686 $a86.14$2bcl 700 $aBechor$b Guy$01482989 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782349303321 996 $aThe Sanhuri Code, and the emergence of modern Arab civil law (1932 to 1949)$93720265 997 $aUNINA
