Toubat: Civil and Military Consumer Merger Raises Concerns

The article addresses the legal and constitutional debate surrounding the merger of the Civil Consumption Corporation with the Military Consumption Corporation in Jordan, and whether this constitutes a violation of the constitutional nature of the armed forces' role. It explains that the constitution assigns the mission of the army to the defense of the homeland, and that the creation and management of consumption institutions reflect a service-oriented nature linked to the military function, rather than a general economic activity aimed at serving all citizens. The transformation following the merger raises questions about the compatibility of the institution’s changed role with the constitutional authorities and powers of the armed forces, especially since its current organization conflicts with the constitutional nature of the army’s established role. This calls for legislative restructuring aligned with its new function to ensure that economic and social objectives are achieved without compromising the constitutional role of the armed forces.
