The Topic of the dissertation is “Rise of Populism in Iraq: Sadr Trend as a Case Study”
The dissertation should have a good literature review, but this is also a challenge because there aren’t it many resources on it. But there are enough books and Book Chapters on Muqtada Al Sadr, the head of the Sadr Trend in Iraq that it can be used. Muqtada Al Sadr can be seen as the case study himself because he embodies the political Sadr Trend.
The Dissertation then determines what kind of Populist is the Sadr Trend and Muqata Al Sadr himself. Explain what that type of populism is.
