Abstract
This paper focuses on highlighting some important challenges and difficulties that affect the process of teaching human rights and democracy in Iraq higher education institutions. By using qualitative content analysis, it examines the strength and weakness of some textbooks used in teaching human rights and democracy. The paper concludes that the process of teaching these two significant courses needs urgent reform in regard to the textbooks, methodology and teacher training after many years of disregard and sidelining. The paper also notes that most of these textbooks have been written using very sophisticated and theoretical language with lack of practical approach. This made it more difficult to teach these subjects in the Iraqi higher education institutions.
