Natural law, Basis of Panarab Rule of Law

Abstract

It is a contemporary pan-arabism, revisited and based on natural law, that may lead to an Arab Renaissance implementing the common good and the rule of law. It may also save the Arab civilizational identity from its denial and refusal by certain Arabs notably “minorities”. In addition, such pan-arabism m ay deeply contribute to achieving sustainable peace notably in the Arab world. The underlying principles of pan-arab rule of law are salutary, as they dispel the worries of Arab stakeholders. The main eight relevant credos are the following: progressivity and flexibility; transversal reform; opening-up to the world; transcommunautary priority; secularism; small steps policy; sovereignty; antidote to “terrorism”.
