Iraqi Federalism and the Kurds : Learning to Live Together, Paperback / softback Book

Iraqi Federalism and the Kurds : Learning to Live Together Paperback / softback

Part of the Federalism Studies series

Paperback / softback

Description

Iraq today faces a whole gamut of problems associated with post-war recovery and state-rebuilding compounded by age old mistrust and suspicion.

The situation in Iraq resembles a huge experiment in which social scientists can observe the consequences of actions taken across an entire country.

Can Western ideas take route and flourish in non-western societies?

Can constitutionalism take hold and work in a traditional religious and deeply divided society?

Is Iraqi federalism a solution to the country’s severe disunity or a temporary fix?

Iraqi Federalism and the Kurds: Learning to Live Together addresses these important questions and focuses on the role of federalism as a viable solution to Iraq's many problems and the efforts the Kurdish government has deployed to adjust to new federal relations that entail not only gains, but also concessions and compromises.

The author's direct experience of living and working within this embattled country allows a unique reflection on the successes and failures of federalism and the positive developments the introduction of federal relationships have brought.
