خصوصية التنظيم القانوني لاستملاك العقارات للمنفعة العامة

Abstract EN

The right to own private property is one of the most cherished rights in constitutions and laws in order to assure that all people are not deprived of this right.

This holiness is expressed in the words of Lord William Pitt who says that “the poorest man may in his cottage bid defance to all the forces of the Crown.

It may be frail, its roof may shake; the wind may blow through it; the storms may enter, the rain may enter,—but the King of England cannot enter; all his forces dare not cross the threshold of the ruined tenement.” The Universal Declaration of Human Rights states that "Since property is a sacred and inviolable right, no one can be deprived of it unless it requires the general necessity that is legally established.” Most national legislations have been affected by the absolute view of property rights, and these have been rigidly restricted and structured in strict regulations according to the relevant laws.

Among these legislation is the Bahraini Civil Code, which regulated the right of property and introduced regulations to protect and legalise its exercise.
