Abstract
The fact that some Kurdish cities in Kurdistan of Iraq are floundering in the issue of architectural identity and the emergence of different opinions about the nature of Kurdish architecture, between those who support being part of Islamic architecture and others adopt modern architecture to support contemporary political orientation, with the emergence of other individual orientations. This is a motive for conducting this research and diagnosing the intellectual position of the man and the Kurdish society and monitoring the problems he suffers in the subject of identity in general, which reflects on the architectural output and the architectural identity.
The current research aims at diagnosing the intellectual position of man and the Kurdish society and its impact on the subject of identity in general and on architectural identity in particular. This research attempts to verify the following hypothesis: The architectural output is directly influenced by the intellectual position of man and the Kurdish society, It represents a reflection of the position of the society of identity, and that the identity of the architectural identity of crises is only a reflection of the crises in the identity of society.
