النفاذ الدولي للحقوق المكتسبة في مسائل الأحوال

Abstract EN

Everyone has the right to exercise all types of behaviors within the limits of the law whether in his/her country or abroad.

Based on these behaviors a person may gain certain rights.

These rights may be established in one country, while they are denied in other countries.

This leads to the formation of rights called "acquired rights".

These acquired rights are not different in content from other rights.

They only difference may be found in the mechanisms used to implement these rights.

Acquired rights for example can be implemented on the international level, while other rights may arise and implemented internally; this has led us to the study of acquired rights.

Consequently, the reasons behind the studying of the international implementation of acquired rights in property matters have arisen from main reason, namely, lack of such study in Iraq.

Additionally, acquired rights should be brought up as guarantee of human rights at the international level, while being implemented at the internal level through the organization of the legislator to their provisions.

The manifestation of acquired rights is a legal guarantee to the stability of the legal status of individuals under the issuance, cancellation, or amendments of existing legislation.

What makes this matter more important is that acquired rights have a role in the stability of the legal status that may arise under a state law while its impacts may be produced in another.

It also manifests the varying role of rights in topics related to the special law of states.

In addition, it reveals the role of acquired rights in matters related to personal status rather than in matters of real status.
