Abstract: Legal Repertoires and Identity Assertions. This paper focuses on the central role identity matters occupy in the question of law and discourse dealing with and playing on the various legal repertoires. The field of inquiry is Egypt and Egyptian statute law as well as the shari'a, i. e. Islamic law are the repertoires. It aims at demonstrating, starting from law as a communicational and classificatory system, its function in creating domains to which it ascribes individuals and objects and thus its participation in the establishment of borders defining alienity and identity.
