Le juridictions mixtes tra Egitto ed Europa. Spunti dalle carte di Eduardo Piola Caselli

On Egyptian soil, East and West give a peculiar shape to their asymmetrical encounter: a ‘mixed’juridical system (1875-1949) which, using European legal and regulatory tools and models, acquires progressive independence through jurisprudential activity. From heteronomy to autonomy: thepeculiarexperiment, originatedby an international multi-headed artifex, comes to life through the mixed courts’ constant jurisprudence. The ‘principles of natural law’, surprisingly admitted by codes modeled on French prototype, contribute to giving adaptability to the system: the case of intellectual and industrial property, regulated by principles identified by the courts in absence of law, shows the way.
