Summary
Iraq's current government, the result of a U.S.-supported election process designed to produce democracy, continues to be riven by sectarianism and factional infighting. However, the Administration says that the passage of some key laws in 2008 represents major progress on national reconciliation and that planned provincial elections will help heal remaining communal rifts. See CRS Report RL31339, Iraq: Post-Saddam Governance and Security, by Kenneth Katzman.
