Abstract: In this article, I explore whether and how Middle Eastern legal process can be reconciled with the idea of timeliness. The idea that any procedure physically within the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) and Middle East and North Africa (MENA) regions could be both fair and expeditious may appear counterintuitive to those brought up in the Anglo-American legal tradition, and the suggestion that there could exist a notion of “timely Middle Eastern procedure” that produced just and fair results is more than likely to be treated as an oxymoron. Administrative, political and legal processes throughout the Levant and Arab world are, when viewed through Western eyes, more than likely to be characterised as corrupt, slow or even Kafkaesque. I argue that procedural delay is an inherently problematic and relative concept, both legally and culturally speaking, which cannot make sense without introducing robust time standards against which court processing time can be evaluated. I seek to elucidate the fundamental nature and causes of procedural delay in relation to civil trials and propose the adoption of a distinct methodology that could be used to more objectively assess court efficiency in handling civil cases throughout the GCC and MENA regions.

Abstract: S'il est vrai que le caractère de l'esprit et les passions du coeur soient extrêmement differents dans les ers climats, les lois doivent être relatives et à la difference de ces passions, et à la difference de ces caractères (Montesquieu, De l'Esprit des Lois). Trois degres d'élévation du pôle renversent toute la jurisprudence, un méridian décide de la vérité … Plaisante justice qu'une rivière borne Vérité au deça des Pyrenées erreur au delà (Pascal, Pensées).

Abstract: In this paper, factors are analysed which will influence the formation and implementation of legal services policy in the United Kingdom and the United States of America over the coming years. Despite important political differences between these countries and between the political parties operating inside them, a broad consensus about the aims and, to a lesser extent, the delivery of legal services has emerged, which is closely allied to the political assumptions of the welfare state. The authors contend that the parameters of current political debates in relation to legal services have been narrowly circumscribed, with the result that fundamental policy choices existing beyond the legal aid consensus have rarely been confronted by policymakers. To understand future developments it is important to consider not only current policy agendas but also the wider environment within which policymakers must operate. The authors conclude by identifying those forces underlying the political and policy processes which may cause the legal aid consensus to collapse and so pave the way for new, not necessarily ideal, policies. In this context, the authors pay particular attention to the commitment to the welfare state, the market for legal services, the revolution in information technology, and legal research and education.
