'The Legacy of Iraq' critically reflects on the abject failure of
the 2003 intervention to turn Iraq into a liberal democracy,
underpinned by free-market capitalism, its citizens free to live in
peace and prosperity. It argues that mistakes made by the coalition
and the Iraqi political elite set a sequence of events in motion
that have had devastating consequences for Iraq, the Middle East
and for the rest of the world. Today, as the nation faces perhaps
its greatest challenge in the wake of the devastating advance of
the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) and another US-led
coalition undertakes renewed military action in Iraq, understanding
the complex and difficult legacies of the 2003 war could not be
more urgent. Ignoring the legacies of the Iraq war and denying
their connection to contemporary events could mean that vital
lessons are ignored and the same mistakes made again.
