الحماية الدستورية للحقوق والحريات العامة في ظل دستور العراق الدائم لسنة 2005

Abstract

Civil society organizations are one of the institutions that support democratic systems and they are the non-governmental organizations, since governmental organizations are naturally biased to governments. Civil society organizations work to promote public freedoms through their activities stipulated in both the Iraqi Constitution of the year 2005 and the Egyptian Constitution of the year 2014, where each of them were granted freedom to form association and syndicates. As well as the national legislation, which regulates the work of those organizations, to achieve the objectives for which they were established in promoting and supporting human rights and fundamental freedoms.The Egyptian draft Law No. 70 of 2017, as well as the Iraqi NGO Law of 2010, provided a model for enabling the work of these organizations, and organizing their legitimate activities, and prohibiting their activities that “harm national security, public order, public morality, public health, or territorial integrity.” However, it is preferred to expand the circle of the establishment of civil society organizations and to remove the obstacles towards their development, and then the Egyptian and Iraqi legislators should take the necessary legislative steps to achieve this purpose. Whereas, the civil society is the nucleus of true democracy, which allows the opposition to discuss and take Anti attitudes against the performance of the work of the government.
