Abstract
Omar Azziman explains that the Moroccan DOC, initially the most poorly received of all 1913 codes, was strongly criticized for its clumsiness, length, uncertainties, hesitations, and terminology. Critics also accused it of being neither insensitive to Islamic law nor impermeable to Germanic legal thought. However, these criticisms faded, and by the 1960s, doctrine became rather praiseful, hailing the DOC as an original work achieving a miraculous synthesis of Islamic law and modern European legislation. The DOC had fulfilled its mission as the legal foundation of Morocco's newly established economic system. Azziman notes that since 1965, considerable changes have occurred, challenging the DOC on essential points and inviting new perspectives.
