The political activity of Najaf students 1932-1958 A reading in the government perspective through the documents of the archives of the Iraqi Ministry of Interior

Abstract

The subject of the student movement and its political movement in Najaf, as a conscious and important segment of the national movement, constitutes an important unstudied page in its political history, whether at the level of local histories, or at the level of Iraqi historical and political studies. Our research on (the political activity of Najaf students 1932-1958) comes to fill some of the shortcomings in its subject. The research included a presentation of the details of the events that took place in the city of Najaf, including strikes, demonstrations, and confrontations with the security forces, and the role of students in them.
