Social legislation and human security in Iraq

Abstract

In a world crowded with manifestations of imbalance and deprivation, as
well as multiple sources of insecurity, the demand for official institutional
action to contain the crises and tensions that may arise as a result of this must
increase. According to this perception, the state, as the most important actor in
this field, will have to search for possible means to cordon off the productive
factors. Because of the lack of security, and the human experience has shown
that the trend towards humanization of legislation is one of the factors affecting
the containment of the shortcomings that resulted from the variables of the new
reality. From this point of view, this research seeks to shed light on the
relationship between social legislation as a set of legal provisions and rules
aimed at protecting human rights and the interests of the people, especially the
fragile groups in Iraqi society, and between human security as a legitimate
requirement through which the individual feels reassured and free from fear in
the face of the various situations of life, both material and moral ones.
