Foreigners played a significant role in shaping Libya's institutions and policies, and this book explores longer term trends in the relations between Libya and the West, placing current developments in their historical context. Throughout history, the globe's most powerful actors have regarded Libya as an outlier state of little significance. Libya belonged neither here nor there and never fell under the full protection of any significant global or regional powerhouse. Libya's weak national identity, its weak institutions and its peripheral position have made it vulnerable to external influences and interventions. As a result, Libya repeatedly falls prey to foreign powers wanting to flex their muscles. As this book narrates, this was the case in 1911, in 2011 and several times in between. 000755513 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed July 6, 2016) 000755513 651_0 $$aLibya$$xForeign relations$$zWestern countries$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000755513 651_0 $$aWestern countries$$xForeign relations$$zLibya$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000755513 651_0 $$aLibya$$xPolitics and government$$y20th century. 000755513 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z1137489499$$z9781137489494$$w(OCoLC)934193956 000755513 830_0 $$aSecurity, conflict and cooperation in the contemporary world. 000755513 852__ $$bebk 000755513 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1057/978-1-137-48950-0$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000755513 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:755513$$pGLOBAL_SET 000755513 980__ $$aEBOOK 000755513 980__ $$aBIB 000755513 982__ $$aEbook 000755513 983__ $$aOnline 000755513 994__ $$a92$$bISE
