4.0 out of 5 stars Political Culture in Libya, March 13, 2002
This review is from: Political Culture in Libya (Hardcover)
This is an excellent book. It offers fresh thinking supported by field research on issues that go to the heart of economic, political, and social change in Libya. Based on a survey of 500 students at Garyounis University in Benghazi, Libya, the author concludes that the revolutionary government headed by Mu'ammar al-Qaddafi has enjoyed considerable success since 1969 in reproducing its values among the younger generation. Regime success is most notable in the area of gender issues together with policies on Arab nationalism, Arab unity, and the Palestinian issue. The regime has been much less successful in its efforts to create politically participant citizens and to develop acceptable alternatives to kinship ties. These are very significant findings that challenge the thinking of many observers on the construct and impact of the Qaddafi revolution.
