Driven to a significant extent by Pakistan’s rapidly growing status in trade and economic partnerships – in particular considering the country’s role in the China and Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) – interest in Pakistan’s dispute settlement regime is on the rise. This ground-breaking book, by Pakistan’s best-known arbitrator, practitioner, and legal scholar, is the first in any language to provide in-depth coverage of all significant topics of Pakistani law on both domestic and foreign arbitration, ranging from drafting of the arbitration agreement to the enforcement of arbitral awards. With comprehensive coverage of Pakistani statutes and case law affecting arbitration and bilateral investment treaties (BITs), the author describes and analyses such issues and topics as the following: concepts of separability, arbitrability, and competence-competence; rules governing the conclusion, interpretation, and enforcement of arbitration agreements; grounds on which courts assume jurisdiction; legal issues pertaining to the stay of court proceedings in relation to both domestic and foreign arbitration; constitution of arbitral tribunals; interim measures; judicial review of both domestic and foreign arbitral awards; and available remedies of appeal and revision. Positioned to become the preeminent authority on the arbitration law of Pakistan, this book will be welcomed not only by Pakistani practitioners, arbitrators, judges, students, and academics as the first practical guide to arbitration practice and procedure in their country but also by foreign practitioners approaching Pakistani courts seeking interim measures and enforcement of arbitration agreements and arbitral awards. In addition, both domestic and foreign businessmen will discover clear paths to well-informed decisions on investment and commercial issues involving Pakistan.
Starting in 1947, this volume examines the way Pakistani judges have dealt with the controversial issue of Islam in the past 50 years. The book's focus on reported case-law offers a new perspective on the Islamisation of Pakistan's legal system in which Islam emerges as more than just a challenge to Western conceptions of human rights.
Presents a deeply contextualized account of public law and judicial review in Pakistan.
The War on Terror has been going on for over a decade and it shows no signs of winding down in near future, a war which has directly contributed to growing security regimes in frontline states. This book focuses on the legal dimensions of the War on Terror and security in Pakistan. It highlights the growth of the security state in Pakistan, and questions the growing and by-now entrenched legal security regime in the country. The book traces the roots of the present security laws in colonial and post-colonial times. One broader dimension from which the legal security regime of Pakistan is approached in this book is through highlighting specific issues concerning the legal identity of the subject such as the rights of aliens in the background of state power versus liberal constitutionalism, and the rights of terrorism suspects in the background of deploying death sentence as a tactical, psychological tool versus the absolute right to life (of every individual). By critically reflecting on the increasingly institutionalized form of the security apparatus in Pakistan, the book (indirectly) suggests the legal ways to resist the growing legal security regime and derogation from human rights. Offering a theoretically engaged and critically reflective overview of the current state of individual identity, rights and freedoms in face of a burgeoning legal regime of security in Pakistan, this study makes advances in critical legal studies and critical IR. It will be of interest to academics working in the field of security studies, South Asian Studies, particularly Pakistan, and the War on Terror.
Religion plays a pivotal role in the way women are treated around the world, socially and legally. This book discusses three Islamic human rights approaches: secular, non-compatible, reconciliatory (compatible), and proposes a contextual interpretive approach. It is argued that the current gender discriminatory statutory Islamic laws in Islamic jurisdictions, based on the decontextualised interpretation of the Koran, can be reformed through Ijtihad: independent individual reasoning. It is claimed that the original intention of the Koran was to protect the rights of women and raise their status in society, not to relegate them to subordination. This Koranic intention and spirit may be recaptured through the proposed contextual interpretation which in fact means using an Islamic (or insider) strategy to achieve gender equality in Muslim states and greater compatibility with international human rights law. It discusses the negative impact of the so-called statutory Islamic laws of Pakistan on the enjoyment of women’s human rights and robustly challenges their Koranic foundation. While supporting the international human rights regime, this book highlights the challenges to its universality: feminism and cultural relativism. To achieve universal application, genuine voices from different cultures and groups must be accommodated. It is argued that the women’s human rights regime does not cover all issues of concern to women and has a weak implementation mechanism. The book argues for effective implementation procedures to turn women’s human rights into reality.
