Abstract: The topic we have investigated in this study is the constitutional guarantees to protect political rights and freedoms in the 2005 Iraqi Constitution. The Iraqi Constitution regulates the rights and freedoms in the second part of the Constitution, which shows the importance of the rights and freedoms regulated in the highest law of the state to ensure its statue and respect for these rights and freedoms. These rights and freedoms include the right to election, to stand for election, to vote, the right to assemble, the right to freedom of expression, the right to form or join political parties, and the right to obtain citizenship The Iraqi Constitution also defines the means by which these rights and freedoms are guaranteed, which we can extract from the texts and spirit of the Constitution. The most important guarantees for the protection of political rights and freedoms are the rule of law, the separation of powers, the independence of the judiciary, the constitutionality of laws and the hierarchy of laws. The principle of the rule of law and the principle of hierarchy of laws, along with the principle of separation of powers, are among the constitutional principles that can be implemented to prevent violations of political rights.
