Abstract:
Kamal Majid provides an insider's assessment of the history, political dynamics, major players and current social and economic conditions in the Kurdish region of Iraq. The author outlines a state of exception that has had an ambiguous and sometimes turbulent relationship both with the previous Baﺀth regime and the present Baghdad government which ultimately replaced it. The powerful rival groups of Jalāl Ṭalabānī and the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK) and Masﺀūd Barazānī and the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) vie for power, control of oil resources and pipelines as well as lucrative trans-national smuggling routes at a time when services have deteriorated and material components of infrastructure have been sold off to Iran. The picture of a region run by the Peshmerga militias of the ruling parties and plagued by corruption and influence peddling in a world of shifting alliances between Turkey, occupation forces and Iran is a dim one.

Abstract:
Kurds are an Iranian ethnic group that compactly resides in a large geographical area, at the junction of Asia Minor, the Caucasus, the Iranian Highlands, and Mesopotamia, called Kurdistan. Currently, the region is divided between four states - Turkey, Iraq, Iran and Syria. Ethnic Kurdistan has been constantly in a state of instability since the 20th century. Because of this, the Kurdish issue is one of the most pressing problems in recent history and is at the forefront of the political life of the Middle East region. Kurds are the most numerous people who, at the present stage of human development, do not have their own statehood and have existed for a long time without autonomy. For a long period of time, they have been fighting for self-determination, and Iraqi Kurdistan has a major role to play in it. It is this region that has made the most progress in the political sphere, notably thanks to the creation of the Kurdistan Democratic Party in 1946. For almost half a century, under unfavorable conditions, its activities have helped to develop a new political culture and the so-called "pluralism of thoughts". The split within this party has shown that no national movement is unitary and combines the interests of different social and political groups. Further deepening of the contradictions, in addition to the difficult situation of Iraq in the international arena, resulted in armed conflict. During the civil war, both Kurdish parties from other countries and the armed forces of Iraq, Iran and Turkey intervened in it. In fact, the inter-Kurdish conflict in Iraqi Kurdistan has become a significant step towards the realization of the issue of autonomy.

Abstract:
This study identifies and examines drivers and barriers toward effective integrated and sustainable management and governance practices based on ecosystem services’ perspective of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq’s water management area. A combination of a systematic literature review and 28 individuals from Ankawa, Kasnazan, Haran City, Eskan, Bakhtiari, Tairawa, Mastufi, Khabat and Saiudawa were randomly interviewed. The decisions to use residents of these areas are based on their location as well as mixed challenges and conditions regarding water supply and use based on their social and economic statuses. The responses were analysed using NVivo 12 and the results of the study indicated that there have been substantial increases in environmental and ecosystem services awareness has been a key driver of heightening sustainability initiatives in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq. Additionally, the study reveals that lacking coherence between actors and sectors concerning natural resource governance is a major obstacle to undermining sustainable water management initiatives. It is inferred through the established findings that sound leadership, localized, decentralised management structures, and sustainable developments are pivotal for enhancing the water management efforts in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq. Moreover, local water suppliers, residents, farmers and decision-makers are encouraged to adopt additional and sound water monitoring practices to improve ecosystem services and valuable contributions toward improving human beings’ well-being.

Abstract:
Background: Mortality and causes of death are among the most important statistics used in assessing the effectiveness of a country’s health system. Several countries do not have information systems for collecting these data, and they must therefore be estimated from surveys. Objective: This study analyzes mortality data retrieved from official government databases in Iraqi Kurdistan to describe ten-year trends in natural causes of death. Methods: Data for natural causes of death, reported from 2009 to 2018, were extracted from the databases of the Registration Bureau of Births and Deaths and of the Forensic Medicine of the Province of Sulaymaniyah. A sample of 16,433 causes of death was analyzed. Results: Causes of death were coded according to the ICD-10 classification. Overall, cardiovascular diseases were the leading cause of mortality (52.6%), followed by neoplasms (17.7%), infectious and parasitic diseases (8.9%), and genitourinary diseases (6.3%). Neonatal conditions, congenital anomalies, and neurological conditions each accounted for less than 1% each. Numbers of natural deaths by cause and cause-specific mortality rates have been estimated for the entire Region of Iraqi Kurdistan. Comparisons with other sources suggest that there is a substantial amount of underreporting, especially in relation to deaths of infants and under-five children. Conclusion: Our findings confirm that the region is facing a burden of non-communicable diseases, coupled with high proportions of infectious diseases. However, the lack of effective vital statistics with combined under-reported data collection highlights the need for implementation of health monitoring systems. Advancements in generating high-quality data are essential in improving health and reducing preventable deaths. The establishment of a novel Health Information System is discussed.

Abstract:
International accounting standards, which were renamed the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), have received global acceptance, as the rapid transformations in financial and economic relations, and the liberalization that they involved in the economy in trade and markets, deepened the need to establish a unified international approach in accounting that keeps pace with these developments. Because of the disparity and difference between countries in the accounting principles, accounting practices, and preparing the financial statements that would lead to the ambiguities and contradictions in the information and results contained in those financial statements. There are continuous efforts by the Central Bank of Iraq to implement international standards through the trend towards requesting financial data from banks according to international standards. Therefore, the banking sector, by its modernity and the challenges it faces daily, needs a high degree of financial disclosure and transparency in the financial reports, which are reflected in the banks’ financial position and performance. The financial statements look similar in form among different companies, but there is a difference among them in terms of content, due to the difference in the social, economic, and legal conditions in the external and internal environment of the companies. In reality, there are no specific accountings standards belong to the Kurdistan Region of Iraq. Therefore, this study aims to discover the extent to which the international financial reporting standards’ application contributes to encouraging foreign investment in the Kurdistan Region.

Abstract:
According to theories of nonviolent resistance, violence is counterproductive and undermines the ability of a movement to achieve mass support. At the same time, studies of ethnic insurgencies suggest that violence is the only available method of mobilization in political systems characterized by entrenched ethnic hierarchies. Engaging with these arguments, this article addresses a historical puzzle: What factors explain the timing and ability of the PKK's (Partiye Karkerên Kurdistan) rise as the hegemonic Kurdish nationalist organization in Turkey between the late 1970s and 1990? The article argues that studies that identify Kurdish nationalism as a reaction to repressive policies of the Turkish state without paying attention to prevailing social conditions and oppositional strategies fail to provide a satisfactory response. It argues that the rise of the PKK was primarily a function of its ability to gain support among the peasantry in deeply unequal rural areas through its strategic employment of violence. It also identifies four causal mechanisms of PKK recruitment based on rich archival and field research: credibility, revenge, social mobility, and gender emancipation.

Abstract:
Students from the University of Halabja were asked in a survey conducted in April 2019 about their attitudes towards emigration in the wake of a prolonged financial crisis burdening the Kurdistan Region of Iraq (KRI) since 2014. While these students are not yet migrants, researching the reasons for their envisaged migration helps to better understand the challenges they face. Despite a continuous development of its post-secondary education sector, the KRI still struggles with low absorption rates of graduates. At the same time, the KRI exhibits a growing youth bulge, as well as high unemployment levels among its young population. These unfavourable conditions might cause a brain drain, pushing the educated youth to leave the country in search of better financial means, as well as waves of social unrest as seen throughout Iraq and the wider Middle East. First results show that more than half of the surveyed students have considered emigrating. Local job opportunities would, however, diminish their percentage.

And his political organization.From the perspective of the Holy Qur’an, it came with a set of laws and legislations, for the sake of humanity and in order that a person does not betray his fellow human being. After identifying the social problems of the displaced women in the host community by relying on definitions and theoretical directions, this research reached the most important results: A displaced woman is a person who left her original country without her will for fear of exploitation. Marx and Durkheim define that all social problems may be due to the presence of cause and effect , and that the problem of displaced women, based on the opinions of the two scholars, may be due to political conflicts and the result of displacement, then the displaced women are exposed to social problems of all kinds. According to the statistics conducted in the Kurdistan Region in (2018), unemployment rates were calculated at (9%) for citizens of the region, especially exposure of displaced women to unemployment in the host community. At the end of the research, the researchers presented some recommendations and suggestions that may be useful in addressing the problems of the displaced in the future.

Findings: The findings of the study indicates that the pandemic struck at a time when public faith in the government was low, the economy was damaged by lower oil sales income, protests were common across the country, and violent extremist acts were on the rise. COVID-19 has worsened long-standing and sometimes deep-seated political, economic, social, and security issues. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a dramatic loss of human life around the world, posing an unprecedented challenge to public health, food systems, and the workplace. The pandemic's economic and social impact is devastating: tens of millions of people are at risk of falling into extreme poverty, while the number of undernourished people is currently estimated to be nearly 690 million, By the end of the year, the number could have risen to 132 million. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Food security, public health, and employment and labor issues, particularly worker health and safety, all intersect during the COVID-19 crisis. However, in Azadi hospital we cannot talk to people because of virus, the risk of contracting COVID-19 via an infected person's feces appears to be low. The COVID-19 virus may cause intestinal infection and be found in feces, according to some data.

Abstract:
This Study is an empiric- analytical research in city planning discipline was conducted in Sulaymaniyah city from Dec. 2015 until July 2017. Geographically Sulaymaniah situates north-east of Republic of Iraq. Like many other urban centers, Sulaymaniyah city as one of the congested urban areas in Kurdistan Region, is almost over populated and congested, resulting in accumulated problems in health-, economical-, services, technical-, social- and planning affairs, which leads to permanent degrading of the natural, and social environment and thus impact on the quality of life, Thus the main concern of this study is firstly finding out the reasons facts indeed responsible for the above described unsatisfied situations and then try to answer the questions whether planning methods (if any) manage to prepare answers to these urgent problems overwhelming the city? The study believes that the cardinal reasons for this situation are the effects of combinations of triple facts, namely: the exponential growth of human population in general- and accompanied problems-, the destroyed balance between rural and urban areas and the political vision of administrative machinery that focus on urban centers by neglecting countryside. The cumulative effect of these facts could be observed in form of many distinctive and at the same time interlocking elements leads to the problems that mentioned above. Among many elements involving, the study handles, analyzes and discusses only the elements indeed responsible for destroying the visual, physical and health conditions of the city inhabitants in Sulaymaniyah. Used criterion in determining these elements are the terms: active element, Passive Element, Critical element, and buffer element, which give the adequate answer to the arise questions.

Abstract:
Natural reserves are of great environmental importance as well as being an economic and social resource, as their sites are distinguished as a unique geographical area, those with unique biodiversity, or other unique matters. Countries enact laws, regulations, and legislation regarding these nature reserves to protect them from deterioration, abuse, or over-exploitation of natural resources. From here began the research problem represented by the presence of weaknesses and gaps in the articles of the natural reserve system that negatively affected the management and safety of the reserves compared to regional laws and instructions. The descriptive approach was used in the current study. Accordingly, the most important laws and legislation of some neighbouring and regional countries of Iraq were reviewed, such as the Saudi Executive Regulations for the year 2020, Egyptian Law No. 102 of 1983, and the Jordanian System No. 29 of 2005, as well as Kurdistan Region Regulation No. 9 of 2011. The most important articles of each law and regulation mentioned above were reviewed. The basic subjects were developed for the purpose of comparison, such as requirements, standards, management of the reserve, prohibitions, and activities inside the reserve, as well as the issuance of special instructions for these laws and regulations. The findings show that the instructions for regional countries with sobriety and strength in legislation are stronger than the Iraqi nature reserves system. Also, the study mentioned the most important conditions, standards, and requirements for choosing a reserve.

Abstract:
In the 1980s, villages in the Kurdistan region of Iraq were exposed to chemical weapons (CWs), which killed and injured thousands of civilians. There has been no clinical assessment of the long-term effects of CWs exposure on those injured. We report the first such evaluation of CW effects on long-term health of children. Patients from the CW-exposed areas were interviewed to assess previous and current clinical history and underwent clinical examination. The status of organs known to be targets of CWs, including skin, eyes, respiratory and neuromuscular systems, was assessed. Children of similar age and social background, but with no history of CW exposure, were selected as a control population. Results showed that 70% of children in the CWs group had chronic health problems in contrast to 3.3% in the unexposed group ( p < 0.0001). Fifty-five per cent of the CW-exposed group had long-term visual impairment but none in the unexposed population. Thirty-six per cent of the CW-exposed group had chronic dermatological conditions compared with 0.8% of the unexposed group ( p < 0.0001), 31% of the CWs group had neurological sequelae compared with 0.4% of the unexposed group ( p < 0.0001) and 51% of the CWs group had long-term respiratory problems compared with 1.5% of the unexposed group ( p < 0.0001). Respiratory complaints including asthma, chronic bronchitis and bronchiectasis were particularly common. Our study suggests that CWs used were probably a combination of sulphur mustard and organophosphate nerve agents. Results also indicate that the prevalence of acute and chronic health problems following exposure to CW agents appear to be higher in children compared with reported data in adults.

AbstractBackgroundDespite landmine-risk education programs and extensive demining activities on the Western border of Iran, landmines and unexploded ordnance (UXOs) still cause civilian and child casualties three decades after the Iraq-Iran war (1980-1988). The objective of this study was to understand the epidemiological patterns and risk factors of injury in child casualties of landmines and UXOs in Western and Southwestern Iran.MethodsChildren who were 18 years old or younger at the time of study and who sustained injuries from landmines and UXOs were identified through a search at the Iranian National Veterans Registry. These children participated in a 5-day gathering. The information on socioeconomic status, health-related issues, quality of life, health care utilization, and clinical profiles concerning the landmine and UXO injuries were collected. The method of data collection consisted of three component surveys: health interview, social survey, and medical examinations. Social surveys and health interviews were conducted in a face-to-face method by utilizing a questionnaire consisting of 39 questions addressing household and individual components, including information on time and type of injuries, physical activity, mental health, and quality of life. A comprehensive team of physicians in different subspecialties evaluated and examined children to assess the current medical and psychiatric conditions and physical activity, and recommended and arranged further medical, rehabilitation, or surgical planning.ResultsSeventy-eight child casualties were identified and participated in the study. The mean age of the participants at the time of study was 16.11 years old (SD=2 years). The mean age of victims at the time of injury was 8.2 years (SD=3.12 years; ranged from 2 to 15 years old). Sixty-seven (85.9%) of the children were male. Provinces of Kurdistan and Kermanshah had the highest number of casualties, with a total number of 54 children (68.3%). Eighty percent of the injuries were caused by landmines, and UXO explosions were reported in 20% of the cases. Overall, 24 children (30%) had received some landmine-risk education before or after the events. Sixty percent of the explosions had happened in the morning between 9:00amand 12:00pm. Playing and grazing livestock were the most prevalent activities/reasons at the time of injury, which were reported in 77% of the subjects. Sixty-three percent of incidents had multiple casualties and in only 13 explosions were the children the only victims of the explosion. The most prevalent injuries were amputations in 41 subjects (52.56%), followed by hearing loss in 23 subjects (29.5%). Amputations were more common in upper extremities (62%) than in lower extremities (38%).ConclusionLandmines and UXOs comprise a significant safety hazard to the children living in the Western border of Iran decades after the Iraq-Iran War. The large number of injuries and lack of risk training among victims suggest that landmine cleanings and landmine-risk education should be age-specifically targeted and expanded substantially.MousaviB,SoroushMR,MasoumiM,KhateriS,ModirianE,ShokoohiH,FatemiMJ,HemattiMA,SoroushM,Ghassemi-BroumandM,RassafianiM,AllamiM,NouriF,YavariA,GanjparvarZ,KamyabM,MirsadeghiSA,Epidemiological study of child casualties of landmines and unexploded ordnances: a national study from Iran.Prehosp Disaster Med.2015;30(5):472–477.

Abstract:
After the 1979 Islamic revolution in Iran, the leaders of the Kurdish parties and organizations that had been in exile during the shah regime, returned to their motherland. One of the influential Kurdish parties, the Democratic Party of Iranian Kurdistan brought forth the following slogan: “Democracy to Iran, autonomy to Kurdistan”. But this demand for autonomy was rejected by the Islamic regime and its leader Imam Khomeini with the argumentation that the idea of autonomy for small nations paved the way for separatism and segregation of Iran. Thus, the government brought forward the principle of the administrative and cultural so-called self-management of the regions populated by small nations. This was rejected by the Kurds and other small nations living in Iran. The negotiations between the Islamic regime and different Kurdish political forces brought no result and the confrontation between the two parties sometimes turned into armed clashes. During the 1980-1988 Iran-Iraq war the Iranian government wanted peace in the Iranian Kurdistan as this would guarantee a stable and secure rear under conditions of war. The article shows that there is no unity between the leaders of Kurdish society, they have quite different views concerning the needs of the Kurdish people and as a rule they represent political positions and objectives contradicting each other. Presently the Iranian authorities have adopted a policy of avoiding apparent clashes with the Kurds. The government makes social and economic reforms in the regions populated by Kurds, they build roads, create jobs, etc. Hassan Rouhani, the president of the Islamic Republic of Iran tries to demonstrate a policy of some liberalization in the Kurdish regions.

Abstract:
Purpose This study aims to uses biosocial gender theory to describe successful entrepreneurial behavior in conflict zones. Specifically, the authors investigate how the reliance on agentic (assertive, individual focused) behavior and communal (facilitative and friendly) behavior lead to differential outcomes depending on the physical gender of the entrepreneur exhibiting the behavior. Design/methodology/approach The authors developed a conceptual framework based on extant literature. To test the framework, the authors gathered survey data from Iraqi-Kurdish entrepreneurs who have been living in a state of war since the late 1980s and use a novel analytical method to deal with the limitations inherent in gathering survey data in conflict zones. Qualitative data is presented to generate a better understanding of the survey results. Findings The findings indicate females who are successful in taking on the traditional male role of entrepreneur in conflict zones engage in lower levels of agentic behavior compared to their male counterparts. Successful entrepreneurs (male and female) rely extensively on communal behavior in their ventures. When it comes to community development, male entrepreneurs engaging in agentic behavior, seem to mentor aspiring entrepreneurs more than females. Females relying on communal behavior engage in more mentoring of aspiring entrepreneurs than males. Originality/value An understanding of the unique gender dynamics underlying entrepreneurial behavior in conflict zones remains incomplete. The study introduces evidence that gender differences, as well as social factors, combine with the unique characteristics of conflict zones resulting in different behavioral paths to entrepreneurial success. The analytical method introduces some statistical tools to scholars attempting to understand the unique conflict zone context. As such, the study provides guidance for scholars working in this context, as well as NGO’s and other institutions seeking to train entrepreneurs and improve economic conditions in conflict zones.

Abstract:
While the involvement in terrorist organizations and social movements has generated a plethora of literature, little work exists on the exit from these two types of collectives. In order to grasp the plurality of factors involved in these processes, we based ourselves on an empirical sociological survey of 64 activists of the Partiya Karkerên Kurdistan (PKK). This party experienced a major wave of departures from the guerrilla movement in the early 2000s. The micro-sociological study of desistance trajectories make it possible to develop a relevant explanatory model of disengagement combining attention to diachronicity, the identification of micro-level turning points and meso-level windows of opportunity. After recalling the conditions under which the survey was carried out, we will show how desistance brings into play a certain relationship to time, key moments which, in the case of the PKK, concern not so much state repression as the internal dysfunctions of the party, as well as the “possibilities” that open up for the actors, either during moments of the party restructuraction or in civilian life.

Abstract:
Abstract Walter Benjamin published his influential essay ‘Critique of Violence’/‘Zur Kritik der Gewalt’ in 1921, and the work has troubled and provoked thinkers across disciplines for over a century now. This Forum gathers a group of scholars in philosophy, political science, international relations and legal studies to reflect on the actuality of Benjamin’s essay for contemporary critical theory. Melany Cruz, Kaveh Ghoreishi and Sara Minelli engage Benjamin on ‘divine violence.’ As Cruz notes, lynching in contemporary Mexico has become a recurrent phenomenon in nota roja outlets. Due to its brutality, perceptions of lynching have been reduced to a form of uncivilised and irrational crime. In opposition to this perspective, Cruz theorises the political dimension of the violence of lynching by drawing from Benjamin and argues that such violence symbolically and affectively dramatises the suspension of ‘mere life’ in which the communities enacting the lynchings are immersed in the current conditions of neoliberal Mexico. In this way, it is possible to claim that lynching, in Benjamin’s terms, constitutes a form of divine violence that has the capacity to reveal and communicate the need to end the fear- and anger-provoking condition of ‘mere life.’ In the second section, Ghoreishi and Minelli propose a reading of ‘divine’ as opposed to ‘mythical violence’ that brings out the radical elements of some contemporary struggles by interpreting some examples of strike which took place in Iranian Kurdistan (Rojhilat) in the last forty years. They understand the revolutionary ‘general strike’ considered by Benjamin as what Jesi has called a ‘suspension of time,’ bringing ‘normal’ economic and social relations to a halt. In this sense, the general strikes in Kurdistan can be said to bring the mythological temporality of oppression to an end. These struggles, in which new forms of collectivity have emerged and been experimented, should, therefore, be seen as anticipations of the ‘divine violence’ that puts an end to ‘mythical violence.’

Abstract:
AbstractIn the first millennia of the Holocene, human communities in the Fertile Crescent experienced drastic cultural and technological transformations that modified social and human-environments interactions, ultimately leading to the rise of complex societies. The potential influence of climate on this “Neolithic Revolution” has long been debated. Here we present a speleothem record from the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, covering from Early Neolithic to Early Chalcolithic periods (~ 11 to 7.3 ka, 9000–5300 BCE). The record reveals the influence of the Siberian High on regional precipitation, and shows large hydroclimatic variability at the multicentennial scale. In particular, it highlights wetter conditions between 9.7 and 9.0 ka, followed by an abrupt reduction of precipitation between 9.0 and 8.5 ka, and a wetter interval between 8.5 and 8.0 ka. A comparison with regional and local archaeological data demonstrates an influence of recorded hydroclimatic changes on settlement patterns (size, distribution, permanent vs. seasonal occupation) and on the exploitation of water resources by Neolithic to Chalcolithic populations. Our record does not show prominent hydroclimatic changes at 9.3 and 8.2 ka, thus not supporting direct influence of such rapid and widespread events on the process of Neolithization and its cultural dispersal.

The continuity of preparing the public budget according to the traditional technique by countries ,will lead over the year to increase the volume of public expenditure without any real need to such increase. In order to rationalize the government tunnels in the budget of the Kurdistan Region, the research came to clarify how to apply the technique of program and performance budged, after an analytical analysis of the public budget in the region in terms of its characteristics and the place of strength and weakness, as well as, a questionnaire has been designed involves three axes, which were distributed to a sample of governmental directories that has a relationship with the public budget, to show the problems of the traditional technique and the ability of apply the budget of program and performance. The research comes to a number of conclusions the most important of which is the presence of a continuous increase in public expenditure year after year due to the expansion of the provision of salaries and wages as a result of the many appointments in the public sector as well as the weakness of the private sector in attracting investment and attracting labor, as the researchers put some proposals to the attention of the concerned authorities for the advancement of the public budget among these of the need for the direction towards the implementation of programs and performance budget as the most modern methods used in both developed and developing countries as well as the creation of the necessary requirements for the application and conditions either technically or through the media by the consciousness the leaders of government agencies to accept the change.Key words: traditional budged, budged programs and performance, rationalization of government spending.
