Description
This paper addresses questions of legislation and the relationship between lawyers, judges and their organizations in the current transitional phase. It examines how the Palestinian legal structure will look throughout this time and what form it will take under a final arrangement. Particularly investigated is the manner in which the Palestinian judicial system is likely to evolve, considering the influences of preceding legislators such as the Ottomans, the British, the Jordanians, the Egyptians and the Israelis. Other legal issues are also discussed and related to the process of democratization in Palestinian society.
