Recently published is the book "Encyclopedia of the Royal Delegates of Iraq 1924–1958" by researcher Khaled Ahmed Al-Jawwal. It is composed of three volumes covering the entire history of parliamentary life in Iraq during the royal era, which lasted approximately 38 years—from the establishment of the Iraqi state in 1920 until the abolition of the monarchy in 1958. The book highlights the documentary effort of a period when the Iraqi monarchy was a unique democratic model in the Arab world. It discusses the development of the parliamentary council from the foundational Constituent Assembly to the sixteen election cycles, noting the increase in the number of deputies from 88 initially to 148 in the final session. The author adopted an objective approach, presenting the character of each deputy independently, with a focus on tribal representation and social prestige, providing detailed biographical information of members in alphabetical order. The encyclopedia serves as an important historical reference that clarifies the evolution of parliamentary life in Iraq and how deputies were appointed and emerged during the royal era.
