Judicial settlement of social security disputes (A comparative study: Iraqi legislation with other comparative legislations)

Abstract

Social security is a human right that countries, including Iraq, strive to include in their economic and social policies and implement effectively on the ground. As a result of this endeavor, legal systems have been enacted that may help achieve the goal of each of them. From this standpoint, both the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the two International Covenants have emphasized them. Therefore, all constitutions of member states of these agreements have affirmed the right to social security, as have all social security laws enacted in Iraq. However, despite this, the implementation of this right results in public or medical disputes that determine the right of social security beneficiaries to resort to the judiciary.
