Those who think that democracy is only an electoral fund, but rather it is an integrated system of requirements that are supposed to be present for the purpose of achieving the goal and purpose of its existence, the citizen’s going to participate in the elections is the first step and not the last in his role in the democratic process, the role of the voter cannot end As soon as someone is chosen to represent him in Parliament, there is even a necessity for the citizen to participate in all aspects of the political process even after the end of the electoral process, and for democracy to remain a form without content that empties it of its content.
Democracy in Iraq is an experience that needs more treatments, some of which are of an intellectual nature and others of an institutional and constitutional reform nature. The conflicts and differences between the political blocs remained, as well as the absence of the popular desire to support such calls for reform, since the component mentality is the one that dominates the current political scene with the almost complete absence of a national identity based on Iraqi citizenship.
