Terrorism and its impact on the right of human in development : a study case of ISIS (Daesh)‎ in Iraq

الملخص EN

Iraq is one of the most important countries in the world that has received its impact of terrorist acts by the terrorist organization the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), which has caused instability, especially during the stage of its control of seven Iraqi provinces (Anbar, Mosul, Kirkuk, Salah al-Din, Babylon, Diyala, and parts of Baghdad) in the time span (2014-2017).

This stage has caused a retrogression in the levels of human and economic development and its inconsistency with the capabilities and needs of the Iraqi population.

Therefore, this study aims to demonstate the hypothesis that there is a close relationship between the decline in development in Iraq and the brutal practices of ISIS committed during its period of control over many Iraqi cities and regions.

The study uses several methods in order to address and identify all aspects related to the subject, such as the inductive descriptive approach and the historical approach.

Likewise, government documents, data, and that mentioned in the reports issued by research and studies centers, conferences, regional and international organizations concerned with the study of terrorism and development was a turning point for obtaining information.

The study attempts to formulate a new research vision aiming at highlighting the main dimensions of the effects of the terrorist organization ISIS at that stage and its role in the decline of the citizen's right in development.

This study recently concludes that the terrorist organization ISIS has a negative impact on development indicators in Iraq through its direct effects on human security and freedom and the threat it poses on their lives, as well as the indirect impact on people's capabilities to access health, education and decent living resources.
