This volume traces the emergence of Muammar al-Qaddafi and his fellow officers within Libya's political system and details the ideological background that provided the energy for the country's self-styled revolution. It further chronicles how oil revenues fueled the regime's ambitions and how the country's increasing international isolation eventually tempered the revolution, resulting in Qaddafi's decision in December 2003 to rejoin the international community by agreeing to put a halt to his efforts at obtaining weapons of mass destruction. The final section of the book speculates in part on where labia may now be heading after almost four decades of revolution and authoritarian rules." -- Book cover. 000351447 651_0 $$aLibya$$xPolitics and government$$y1969-2011. 000351447 651_0 $$aLibya$$xForeign relations$$y1969- 000351447 651_0 $$aLibya$$xEconomic conditions$$y20th century. 000351447 651_0 $$aLibya$$xCommerce$$zUnited States. 000351447 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xCommerce$$zLibya. 000351447 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xForeign relations$$y2001- 000351447 7001_ $$aVandewalle, Dirk J. 000351447 85200 $$bgen$$hDT236$$i.L485$$i2008 000351447 85642 $$3Contributor biographical information$$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0812/2007047117-b.html 000351447 85642 $$3Publisher description$$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0812/2007047117-d.html 000351447 85641 $$3Table of contents only$$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0812/2007047117-t.html 000351447 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:351447$$pGLOBAL_SET 000351447 980__ $$aBIB 000351447 980__ $$aBOOK
