Título: Libya: Qadhafi's Revolution and the Modern State
Autor: Lillian Craig Harris
Sinopse: This is a well-written account of events in Libya since 1969, when Moammar Qadhafi became head of state. Requiring no previous knowledge of Islam or North Africa, it begins by sketching Libya's historical development. It then proceeds not only to detail current internal and external policies up through early 1986, but to focus on Qadhafi himself, his theories, aspirations, and support of political groups abroad. For the general reader wanting an introduction to Libyan politics, this will be a valuable work. It is broader than Mohamed El Khawas's Qadaffi: his ideology in theory and practice ( LJ 8/86) and fills the gaps on internal policies in John K. Cooley's Libyan Sandstorm ( LJ 10/1/82). A basic work recommended for most collections.Paul H. Thomas, Hoover Inst. Lib., Stanford, Cal. Copyright 1986 Reed Business Information, Inc.
