Despite the fact that inflation is a negative phenomenon, which is suffering from contemporary economies, but it is not free from the positives that stand in the forefront of being an indicator accompanying the process of growth and economic development and is often a reflection of this research is an attempt to extrapolate the priorities of the relationship between inflation rates and economic growth rates in Iraq An attempt to identify the extent to which total inflation affects the growth rate of fixed GDP as a dependent variable while attempting to reach a threshold of inflation in the Iraqi economy by which it can distinguish between acceptable inflation rates and the positive effect on growth The study reached important conclusions, the most important of which is the existence of a significant and statistically significant relationship in the effect of inflation on the economic growth of the previous period with the possibility of a threshold for inflation in the economy. Iraq at the level of 8%, so the research suggests the possibility of adopting this result to guide monetary policy in Iraq and give it more ability and flexibility to use its tools.
