    The Exploration of the Legal Framework and the Practice Relating to “Joint Ventures” in Ethiopia
    (Addis Ababa University, 2010-12) Asfaw, Samuel; KENNEA, ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR ZEKARIAS
    This is a comparative research work on the law and practice of “joint venture” in Ethiopia with an objective of exploring the various available legal frameworks there for and the associated problems therein. In this small LLM thesis, it has been endeavored to overview the various joint venture legal structures in different jurisdictions and to also compare and contrast these ‘joint venture’ frameworks with those “joint ventures” in Ethiopia. The paper finally comes up with some conclusions drawn from the legal loopholes and the practical problems observed in the practices, and it also recommends some pragmatic legal frameworks to be put in place for the proper practice of joint ventures so as to address the increasingly pressing needs for such joint venture arrangements. The term ‘joint venture’ has been put in quotation all over the paper, to indicate that this term is not necessarily referring to the Joint Venture provided under the 1960 Commercial Code, but rather to the ‘joint venture’ in its broader sense as conceived worldwide.
