An introduction to BUSINESS LAW IN THE MIDDLE EAST serves strictly as a practical guide, giving the requirements and the background of the region and its business atmosphere for those starting to trade in, or with, the countries of the Middle East. The countries discussed are all oil-producers. They are faced with, and are overcoming in a remarkable way, the problems of vastly increased wealth and influence that have come not once, but twice. Now, in the 1970's, it is easy to forget that their initial surge of wealth came with the advent of the '50-50' petroleum concessions some twenty years ago. The area has been transformed from one of great poverty and little consequence, to one of major economic power. The purpose of An introduction to BUSINESS LAW IN THE MIDDLE EAST is to ensure that the reader becomes aware of some of the many questions that are likely to arise and the pitfalls he risks encountering when he starts to trade in, or with, these countries. As an added attraction, a list of company income tax rates and a chart highlighting the key factors in industrial property, trade and investment have been compiled and reproduced as Appendices.. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/Fair. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
