Blanke, G and Kotb, S (2015) Construction disputes under UAE law: Some initial considerations. Proceedings of Institution of Civil Engineers: Management, Procurement and Law, 168(6), pp. 269-276. ISSN 17514304
Abstract
This article discusses the application of UAE law to construction disputes in the UAE. It provides initial insights into how the UAE courts deal with international and local construction disputes at a municipal level. The importance of UAE law as a governing law on the merits should not be underestimated as many construction projects located there are subject to UAE law. With an increase on construction projects and foreign investments in the region, a proper understanding of UAE law in a construction context becomes increasingly important.

N.B. Descriptive scope is a count of how many of the five facets of empirical research are indicated by the words used in title, abstract and keywords. It is not intended as a judgement on the research; merely a count of the kind of word we would expect to indicate Phenomenon, Concepts, Theoretical framing, Empirical techniques, Analytical techniques. If all five are present, then a code of “5 PCTEA” will indicate this. If you feel the coding for this record is questionable, we welcome discussion around the terms we matched or the way we categorized them. The facet you would expect may not be coded, or a facet may be coded inappropriately. This can also bear on a larger question, of which facets should be treated as defining in construction management research. Please get in touch, and we will look at it. More details here
