| Abstract | ||
| For decades, Iraqi students played distinct struggle roles through the history of the national movements. These roles varied and took different shapes accorded with the nature of the political struggles happened at each point of time in the Iraqi modern and contemporary political history. The students were highly influenced by the national movements for being part of Iraqi national fabric which played a great part in demonstrating students' national struggles, thus, going beyond their own occupational demands. This is clarified in terms of their participation in mass uprisings, demonstrations, protests and disorders, generally with national character but spontaneous. Students' yard lacked organization which framed their struggle and directed them correctly. As a result the reaction was unorganized. Students of Teacher-Training School and Law Institute and some students from University of Baghdad participated in the uprising, plus other groups of people in Baghdad as a capital; other provinces also took part in. The demonstration took the shape of revolution due to its expansion and strength. Students supported by opposition parties ruined projects belonged to Britain and its allies. They also defeated and destroyed the American and British political projects in the Middle East. 1948 uprising in Iraq had a wide echo in most Arab countries; especially it received a great deal of sympathy and backing from university students all around the Arab countries; particularly Egypt, Syria and Lebanon. In this uprising Iraqi army leadership took the neutral position in the conflict between students and the agents ruling authority, realizing that students are sons and being the kernel of the nation and future pillars who would lead the nation. This was an evident of the national bond between the army and students. Students as a cultured and conscious class participated with people in a legend position in that uprising where national blood rivers were mixed to defended Iraq and its future which forced Britain and its allies postponed most of their projects. | ||
