Abstract
The research concludes that resorting to these methods is a useful and important project, as it provides quick, fair and effective solutions at the same time, and enhances justice between the two parties to the dispute, the research also recommends the necessity of enhancing awareness of the laws and regulations that govern alternative methods, in addition to providing the financial support and human resources necessary for their effective implementation that serves the reality of the state and the work of its public facilities, as well as striving to hold educational, developmental and educational courses or workshops regarding the alternative methods system and working to develop it in order to keep pace with technological developments in electronic administrative contracts, for these reasons, many comparative legislations have tended to adopt these methods and allowed the possibility of applying general rules to electronic administrative contracts, but with certain conditions, namely that they be adapted to suit the nature of these electronic contracts in order to protect the parties and their private date, until special legislation is issued for them.
Based on this, it has become necessary, even obligatory, for legislators, the most important of which is the lraqi legislator, to work on organizing special legislation related to electronic administrative contracts and the means of resolving them, and to keep pace with the developments witnessed by the world, especially at the level of legal legislation for alternative methods and electronic administrative contracts, provided that legal legislation is established,
