Abstract EN

Vision and future challenges in building an Iraqi national identity after 2003 Represented the transition from a totalitarian regime to a project to build a new system and a different quantum leap witnessed Iraqi society after 9.4.2003 has been overshadowed by the various political, economic and social levels, and perhaps among the most prominent of these transformations so that crystallized national identity and re-formed through the formulation a new concept of citizenship, which is supposed to be a well-established rule that is based on the new national project to establish or reestablish a new Iraqi state, state institutions and the rule of law .

We can here marking that large and cruel process of transformation that though in its entirety a cause for optimism and hope to build a state that respects its citizens and play its political duties or tasks that it can be accomplished, but it has faced and is still with the contents of advanced functionality obstacles tarnished that goal, has fact the concept of identity and its implications at the forefront of those obstacles, because the concept has been distorted mainly over the years and stages of building the Iraqi state since the beginning of the last century up.

Accordingly, this study stems from the premise that: the problematic identity in Iraq back to the multiplicity and diversity and the different social components that begin nationalism, religion, language and ending tribe and sect, and in spite of overlap and interaction and coexistence between these social components remained the geographical boundaries does not match with the limits of national, religious and sectarian passions and so the multiplicity of loyalties and affiliations that attracts every one of them feelings of social loyalty around.

Thus, the process of building the Iraqi state should be based on a national basis and devoid of any sectarian tendencies, racial or religious racist, to be the Iraqi national identity is one goal, first and foremost, but not at the expense of any particular group or sect.
