New Achievements of England Arbitration Act 1996 in compare with Iranian International Trade Arbitration Act

In 1996, England new arbitration act was adopted. This act was an comprehensive one and was applicable to both internal and international arbitrations. By passing this act, some new legal institutions entered into England legal order, some earlier provisions changed, and some existing rules in common law transferred into positive law. In the same manner, in 1997, Iranian international trade arbitration act was passed which was the first act exclusively in the field of arbitrations. Unlike the England arbitration act, this act is applicable only to international arbitrations. This Act, entered some new legal concepts into legal order of Iran and made a huge evolution in this area. Iranian Act, however, is an adaptation from UNCITRAL model law, but developed the arbitration rules of Iran to the global most known and developed rules in this field.
