The British Labour Movement and the Campaign for Democratic and Human Rights in Iraq, 1984-2010

该项目将分析英国工人运动在政府外和政府内制定的外交政策，着眼于伊拉克的民主和促进人权。为了回答有关工党运动焦点变化和英国国家利益重新定位的问题，它将广泛利用1984-2019年期间担任锡农河谷工党议员的安·克劳伊德新捐赠的档案。Ann Clwyd担任反对伊拉克镇压和争取民主权利委员会主席，是库尔德民族和人权的坚定倡导者，也是布莱尔政府走向2003年伊拉克战争的关键人物。

This project will analyse the creation of foreign policy in the British Labour movement both out of and in government with an eye to democracy and human rights promotion in Iraq. Seeking to answer questions regarding the changing focus of the Labour movement and the reorientation of British national interest, it will make extensive use of the newly donated archive of Ann Clwyd, Labour MP for Cynon Valley from 1984-2019. Ann Clwyd chaired the Committee Against Repression and for Democratic Rights in Iraq, was a staunch advocate for Kurdish national and human rights, and was a key actor in the Blair government's path towards the 2003 Iraq War.
