BEYOND THE REVOLUTION External Actors in Pre- & Post-Revolutionary Libya. Review of Current Research.
Journal Title: Obrana a strategie - Year 2017, Vol 17, Issue 2
Abstract
External actors appear to be one of the key factors in post-revolutionary Libya – country divided by a civil conflict. Aim of this research review is to summarize major Western academic publications that focus on the role and interests of external actors in Libya. The review reflects on the writings dealing with the interests of Western actors –France, UK, Italy, Germany, USA - and the activities of Russia, Egypt, Qatar, Saudi Arabia or UAE, whose increasing influence in post-revolutionary Libya is related to the ongoing conflict and mutual rivalry.
