Session Abstract
The year 2013 marks the 10th anniversary of the American invasion of Iraq and the beginning of Operation Iraqi Freedom. Now that American ground forces have largely departed from Iraq, it seems a propitious time to assess the historical importance of the American invasion and occupation. This roundtable brings together four distinguished scholars to discuss the war's legacies from both the Iraqi and the U.S. perspectives.
