Abstract

The researcher deals with the problem of amending the Constitution of the Republic of Iraq for the year 2005 and the obstacles related to the political reality related to the constitutional text, the most important of which is the method of partisan quotas.


The ruling parties divided power between them and were keen to circulate it even though the constitution did not address this. The obstacles to amending the 2005 constitution were linked to the beginnings of its founding and its dependence on the components and sects in its writing committee without the inclusion of elements of expertise and specialization.


We discussed the meaning of partisan quotas and its consistency with consensual democracy and its constitutionality, detailing the obstacles to the amendment of component representation in the amendments committee with the lapse of constitutional terms. We have developed suitable solutions to address the problem of modification. We hope that it will find its way to implementation
