This study aims at defining the concept of the fragile state, a term that came into existence in 2014, when the states that had internal Problems and external interventions were referred to as the failure states. However, the indicators for their designation and the criteria adopted are 12 indicators that address all aspects of the State’s duties vis-a-vis its citizens. The study examined the reasons that led to the continuation of Iraq within the fragile states, and the selection of the five years within the time limits of the study due to the factors that led to the decline of Iraq and falling back within the most fragile countries. The study dealt with the fragile state challenges to the media reality as a result of the change of its structure because of changing the form of political system alongside the political transformations.
The researcher has used the descriptive and the functional approach in the study to achieve the goal of research and analysis of the media reality, which has lost many of its basic elements to the public. The research arrived at a number of findings that revealed the reasons behind the fragility of the state and the challenges that have been reflected in the media reality which suffers from the lack of legal legislations providing access to information that is the right way to reach the truth that is still absent from the citizen who lives in a troubled environment due to the retreat of the political will and the conflicts between those in control of authority, which was a major cause of the fragility of the state, and their repercussions on the media reality, whose contribution at this stage was consistent with the orientations and rhetoric of the funding agencies of those means .In other words, it became a reflection of a divided society which is already divided at the level of sectarianism, nationalism and religion. The researcher identified the factors that influenced the media and their role in this transitional period, which was characterized by vulnerability due to weak state and performance of its functions. This requires drawing up plans, enacting legal legislations in an attempt to reduce this fragility and counter its collapse.
By- products of corn starch industry were used to prepare media for propagation the lactic acid bacteria as a natural auxotroph. The by- products used were the corn steep water (S) and gluten extract (G) after a proper treatment to get them ready for media preparation. The results showed that it was possible to replace the peptone and meat extract by gluten extract in MRS medium. The growth was approximately similar to that obtained in standard MRS media. Corn steep water (S) was used as well and the growth enhanced by including Tween – 80 at 1% level. The later media named MZ, which was superior for growing standard and local strains and starters. The MZ medium modified by adding acetate and glacial acetic acid similarly to

This study consists of four sections: section one deals with the theoretical framework of the study. Section two studies the dubbed Turkish TV series. The third section explores the role of mass media in forming tendencies, and the last section seeks the field study by analyzing the tendencies if Iraqi viewers of these series.
The goal of this study is to know the role these series played in affecting the behavior and attitudes of Iraqi people and how it can change their morals.
The research ends with the number of results like the negative effect of these series on the
The bailment is one of the well-established legal systems of the English common law, and which included the distinguished characteristics of both the law of contract and the law of property. It is worth-mentioning that this legal system has acquired those common features of these two prominent legal systems, which form an important part of the common law. By the judicial precedents made by English courts. And these precedents have adopted two different and divergent attitudes towards the qualification of the legal nature of bailment in English law . Whereas the Iraqi civil law No. (40) of 1951 regulated the legal rules of the bailment, considering it as a real contract, the conclusion of which requires the availability of four basic elem

Because their voidness is presumed and based upon a rebuttable presumption that these contracts are contrary to the public policy in principle. Owing to the unreasonableness of the Restraint of Trade conditions or terms in which they are included. But if it is proved that they satisfy the requirements of reasonableness, in accordance with the contracting parties, and both the temporal and spatial extent of their coming into effect, as well as the public interest. The court will validate them. It is also worth-bearing in mind that this type of contracts fall under contracts void at comm

In writing this study, a number of goals have been set by the researcher. These goals may include but in no way limited to the nature of the US image as carried by the above three papers, the nature of the topics tackled by them and the nature of the Arab countries which received more and extensive coverage than others.
A qualitative research approach is proposed for the study. This approach has allowed the researcher to arrive at definite answers for the possible questions rais

Show MoreThe objective of this study is to determine the sources of growth of the cement industry in Iraq for the period 1990-2014 and to indicate the nature of the technological progress used in it. To achieve this objective we have built an econometric model, by adapting the production function constant elasticity for substitution, using multiple regression, and enforcement, SPSS program, and using the ordinary least squares method (OLS). The results showed that quantitative factors (labour and capital) are the main sources of growth the cement industry in Iraq, and the qualitative factors (technological progress) did not contribute effectively to achieve this growth. And that the production techniques adopted in the cement industry in

Show MoreThe most famous phenomena in the media administration, is the transfer of power, from the decision-makers inside the administration, especially those who occupy administrative positions by law, to those who enjoy a natural influence based on knowledge, skill and competence, especially on the psychological, political and social sides.
The old way of dividing the administration into heads and hands is no longer accepted, and the separation of thinking and work based on a traditional format has become rather refused.
Also, a chapter like this one might become a constant routine, but it doesn’t keep pace with the development of field concepts and practices of administrations. The logic of modern administration emphasizes th

On the long term, the research community is represented by the banks listed on the Iraq Stock Exchange, while the research sample was deliberately chosen, which included three private banks such as Baghdad Commercial Bank, the Iraqi Commercial Bank and the Iraqi Investment Bank, an

By the use of watermarking techniques, security, asset protection, and authentication have all been made possible. In this paper, a comparison between fragile and robust watermarking techniques has been presented to benefit them in recent studies to increase the level of security of critical media. A new technique has been suggested when adding an embedded value (129) to each pixel of the cover image and representing it as a key to thwart the attacker, increase security, rise imperceptibility, and make the system faster in detecting the tamper from unauthorized users. Using the two watermarking ty

The inhibion effect of imidazol ,protection efficiency and the corrosion rate of Zn in (1M) HCl were investigated at various concentrations (1x 10-3 – 5x10-3) M and tempearture range (285-328) K. The corrosion inhibitive of Zn by imidazol was studied using weight loss measurement and analytical titration of the amounts of dissolved zinc in acidic solution in presence and absent of imidazol. It was observed that imidazol led to protection efficiency reached to (88.93)% when (10)mM imidazol concentration was used. A linear relationship came true between (C/?) and (C); where (?) is the coverage of Zn surface by imidazol which could be obtained from
