A school of architecture is here to name the doctrines resulting of the total of theoretical orientations based on an idea or several philosophical ideas that are non-contradicted neither in roots nor in their results. A school of architecture is a great philosophy that produces theory or theories and then to deal with endless applications. Thus, each respectful school of architecture, without exception, had presented clear unique answers about several important issues; otherwise, it would be under the umbrella or the brigade of another school.

Addressed trends, theories and currents of intellectual global architectural philosophies as classicism, modernism, postmodernism, Autonomous architecture by Harvard School of architecture, Deconstruction, School of Venice, E'cole Poly Technics, and others, had all verified themselves by unique answers and distinctive attitudes towards different characterized issues. Those issues are the scientific determinism, the location of human from his world center, and the origin of knowledge, the essence of architecture, the stability of moralities, defined time, and basing on certain physics to crystallize distinctive principles for each of those schools.

Iraqi architectural academic institution had not succeeded yet in identifying the necessary answers to mature a real committed Iraqi School of architecture.

The problem of the research is the need to identify an Iraqi school of architecture that would have a global influence.

As a research hypothesis, to maturate a true committed school of architecture (that would have a global influence), it has to succeed to answer the above questions.

Just before announcing the manifesto for a new school of architecture "Iraqitecture"(1), this research aims to pave the way and to draw the main attitudes that distinguish the intellectual construction for a futuristic Iraqi architectural school.
