This paper aims to understand the religious,
political, and organizational background of the Shi’ite movement in Iraq. It
identifies the relationships that Iraqi Shi’ite groups have developed with
other regional actors, most notably Iran, as well as the Shi’ite opinion
leaders who have earned a prominent religious and political identity in the
country, including Ayatollah Sistani, Muqtada al-Sadr, and the al-Hekim family.
Finally, this paper also analyzes Shi’ite relations with and approaches to the
state. Faleh Cabbar, an Iraqi sociologist, offers a very important historical
and general framework in his book on the Shi’ite Movement in Iraq. However,
much of it will require constant updates its utility as a bedside resource will
rapidly diminish as the position and actions of Iraqi Shi’ites change over
time.
