Description

Understand the complex political history of Iraq through this scholarly study from Routledge. This book examines how sectarianism relates to the challenges of building a modern nation-state and the struggle to create a unified citizenry. It explores the tension between sectarian identities and statehood in a region shaped by significant historical shifts. Following the dismemberment of the Ottoman Empire, Iraq faced unique challenges in establishing a cohesive national identity. This work provides a detailed look at why sectarian affiliations have persisted despite various state policies aimed at creating a more uniform society. By analyzing the role of ruling elites and the resulting feelings of political exclusion, this book offers a deep look into the social and political structures that define modern Iraq. This title is part of the Routledge Studies in Middle Eastern Democratization and Government series, making it an essential resource for students, researchers, and readers interested in Middle Eastern history and political science. It provides a necessary perspective on how social identities are constructed and how they impact the stability of government and national unity.
