Abstract

The subject of the research is the mechanisms guaranteeing the principle of the supremacy of the constitution in the Iraqi constitutional judiciary. The topic was addressed through two sections. In the first section, we reviewed the concept of the principle of the supremacy of the constitution and the place of its supremacy in the Iraqi constitutions. The second section dealt with the constitutional organization of the Supreme Federal Court in Iraq in terms of its composition, powers, and the mechanisms followed. In a way that ensures respect for the principle of the supremacy of the constitution through oversight of the constitutionality of laws.

The study concluded the importance of the Federal Supreme Court in Iraq as the most important effective guarantee for upholding the provisions of the Constitution, achieving the principle of its supremacy, ensuring that its provisions are not violated, and ensuring respect for it by all, rulers and ruled, by monitoring the constitutionality of laws.
