"Al-Fajr Al-Jadeed" newspaper and its position on political and intellectual issues in Iraq 1959-1966 Historical study

Abstract

            "Al-Fajr Al-Jadeed" newspaper is an important observatory for an important historical stage in the contemporary history of Iraq 1959-1966. Regardless of her ideology, she wrote "New Dawn", a stage marred by political conflict inside and outside the corridors of power, as well as intellectual disagreement over several internal issues, which was reflected in many of her positions that were manifested in her articles and writings. Therefore, the topic of the research is a new image far from all that the researchers wrote about that stage in their books, in which they relied on other sources.

            The research was defined by three points, the first of which included an introductory overview of the founder of the newspaper, his upbringing and ideas, and the establishment of the newspaper and the stages it went through. The second point included political issues such as forming governments and the issue of national unity with the Kurds. The third point was devoted to stating the newspaper's position on the intellectual issues that were raised at that stage, including, for example, the issue of the constitution, freedom of the press, and partisan life.
