Abstract:
يعد التطرف من الموضوعات الشائكة والمعقدة التي تحتوي الكثير من الجدل والنقاش وتحديدا فيما يتعلق بمفهومه والمعيار الذي يعتمد في تحديد دلالاته فالذي يراه البعض تطرفا يختلف معه الاخر في ذلك وهذا الاختلاف نابع من الاعتقاد والتصور لكل منهما للمفهوم ذاته، وعل | Extremism is one of the controversial and complicated issues particularly arising from its concepts and the standards followed in defining it, since what some consider extreme is controversial to some others; this difference arise from their conceptualization and understanding of the concept itself. However, the general and common definition of the concept is that it is the inclination to take an opinion or action to the extremes. This formed the germ of the study with all its dialectics which are : the Iraqi culture is formed of variable orientations, practices, and extreme ideas about the other. I sought the solution practically by personal examination of one of Baghdad districts carrying all the questions the most important of which is "What is extremism?", "What do people say about it?", "How do they practice it?" , and "What are the social and cultural changes that contributed to motivating and shaping extremism and its manifestations?".The study aims at uncovering the roots, manifestations, and forms of extremism in the Iraqi culture utilizing different tools, approaches, and scientific techniques in the field work of the anthropological research. The study followed the erudite approach or the (auto - conceptualization), believing that it comprehends and collects the tools and techniques of all other approaches. The study includes three main perspectives : the religious, political, and social perspective, resulting in a group of recommendations and findings : 1 - The Iraqi culture is stifled, restrained, and imposing its own beliefs directly or indirectly; it is dialectic and argumentative to a great extent stemming from deeply rooted in still unresolved historical matters, which are manifested as religious, political, and social practices which were solidified in this culture to dominate it. 2 - Extremism is of positive and negative implications. The positive enforces the sense of togetherness within the extremist groups strengthening bonds among them. The negative side is shown in the conflicts and disputes with the "other".The research recommends the following : 1 - The necessity of focusing on the culture of communication and keeping away from classical techniques. Using modern techniques like holding conferences and seminars will help raise the awareness of people. 2 - Religious institutions should practices its power in directing people's awareness. They must issue clear instructions (Fatawa) condemning the practices that are forbidden by religion.
