  • Country of Origin Information Iraq
    COUNTRY OF ORIGIN INFORMATION IRAQ United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) October 2005 This report has been produced by UNHCR on the basis of information obtained from a variety of publicly available sources, analyses and comments. The purpose of the report is to serve as a reference for a breadth of country of origin information and thereby assists, inter alia, in the asylum determination process and when assessing the feasibility of returns to Iraq in safety and dignity. The information contained does not purport to be exhaustive with regard to conditions in the country surveyed, and incomplete, inaccurate or incorrect information cannot be ruled out. The inclusion of information in this report does not constitute an endorsement of the information or views of third parties. Neither does such information necessarily represent statements of policy or views of UNHCR or the United Nations.

  • “Global War on Terror” Darryl Li
    Darryl Li / A Universal Enemy? DRAFT – 6 August 2009 A UNIVERSAL ENEMY?: LEGAL REGIMES OF EXCLUSION AND EXEMPTION UNDER THE “GLOBAL WAR ON TERROR” * DARRYL LI This essay argues that the ongoing U.S.-driven “Global War on Terror” stands apart from similar state campaigns in its special focus on confronting “foreign fighters” – armed transnational non-state Islamists operating outside their home countries – in places where the U.S. is no less foreign. This global hunt for foreign fighters animates diverse attempts to exclude similarly “out of place” Muslim migrants and travelers from legal protection by reshaping laws and policies on interrogation, detention, immigration, and citizenship. Yet at the same time, certain other outsiders – namely the U.S. and its allies – enjoy various forms of exemption from local legal accountability. This essay illustrates this braided logic of exclusion and exemption by juxtaposing the problems of extraordinary rendition and military contractor impunity in both post-war Bosnia- Herzegovina and post-invasion Iraq. This framework – which predates and will likely outlast the Bush administration – undermines the rule of law and state-building efforts and occludes crucial questions surrounding the legitimacy of how U.S. global power is exercised. This essay employs treaties, Bosnian, Iraqi, and U.S. statutes, cases, and regulations to reframe post-Cold War debates about nation-building and post-9/11 arguments about the laws of war.

  • OVERVIEW of the STATUS of WOMEN LIVING WITHOUT a SAFETY NET in IRAQ 22 May 2018 Public Theme Report Country Information Service
    OVERVIEW OF THE STATUS OF WOMEN LIVING WITHOUT A SAFETY NET IN IRAQ 22 May 2018 Public theme report Country Information Service 1 (61) Report MIG-1811583 06.03.00 22.05.2018 MIGDno-2018-40 Abstract This report is an overview of the situation of women living without a safety net provided by family or marriage in Iraq, and legal infringements against them which are not directly related to the armed conflict in the country. Furthermore, the report takes a brief look at the overall situation of women in Iraqi society. The community-based culture in Iraq has a major influence on the individual’s situation. Men have the main responsibility for their families and family honour, and most women are dependent on men for cultural reasons. Although there has been some change in attitudes, women’s lives are restricted by cultural norms. Women also face discrimination in the labour market and education. Women who violate these cultural norms can become victims of so-called honour violence. Living alone is not generally accepted in Iraq because it is considered inappropriate behaviour. Women can also face other legal infringements. In practice, a single woman has very poor chances of making a living independently. The report is based on various public sources, such as reports published by international organisations and research institutes and complementary news material, which the Finnish Immigration Service had access to at the time of writing this report.

    The Federal Government’s Second Report on the Global Status of Freedom of Religion Reporting period 2018 – 2019 The wooden structure 7.5 metres high known as the “Ring for Peace” stands in the Luitpoldpark in Lindau on Lake Constance. It was erected to commemorate the 10th World Assembly of the NGO Religions for Peace in August 2019. Gisbert Baarmann, the sculptor who created the artwork, integrated 36 different kinds of wood from all over the world into it. The meeting in the Allgäu region in southern Germany brought together some 900 representatives of religious faiths from around 100 countries. © picture alliance / dpa / Carolin Gißibl 2 Federal Government Commissioner for Global Freedom of Religion and Member of the German Parliament, Markus Grübel. © RFB Dear readers, When an argument developed between a Christian agricultural worker and her co-workers in June 2009, little did she know that everything would change for her from that day. What happened next in that province in South Asia was to determine her life from that moment on and have massive repercussions worldwide. On the day in question, her fellow workers told her she was “un- clean” because of her faith. An argument ensued, in the course of which she was accused of blasphemy. It was claimed that she had insulted the Prophet Muhammad. In the days that followed, she was threatened by a mob and then arrested by the police and charged with blasphemy. In 2010, she was sentenced to death. When, years later, the sentence was overturned, protests erupted. Protesters called for the sentence to be upheld and the worker put to death.

NATURALIZATION OF THE FOREIGN ATHLETE A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF IRAQI, EMIRATI, FRENCH AND SOUTH KOREAN LEGISLATION. M.D. Mohammed TaherQasim AL-Awjar Director of the Professional Master's Program in Sports Law College of Law - American University in the Emirates Prof. RaadMiqdadMahmood College of Law - University of Tikrit - Iraq Prof. RaadMiqdadMahmood; ,M.D. Mohammed TaherQasim AL-Awjar Naturalization of the foreign athlete A comparative study of Iraqi, Emirati, French and South Korean legislation. -- Palarch’s Journal Of Archaeology Of Egypt/Egyptology 17(9). ISSN 1567-214x Abstract Naturalization in general is the person's acquisition of a nationality that is proven to him after birth, even if some of the elements of acquiring it after birth, as the lesson is to fully enter into the nationality and to what extent this was achieved at the time of birth or at a later date. The acquired nationality differs from the original nationality in terms of the time it was acquired, and what unites them is the need for a link between the individual and the state granting the nationality. The nationality laws that are the subject of comparison in the research did not agree on a specific formula that defines the legal nature of the naturalization of a foreign athlete, and the most likely opinion is that the naturalization of a foreign athlete is naturalization based on the performance of a useful service for the country as stipulated in some of the nationality laws in question, such as the Iraqi, Emirati and French laws.
