Since its independence in 1951, Libya has experienced rapid
economic and social change. Many of these developments, though
dramatic, have not been comprehensively documented until now. One
of the problems that Libya has had to face has been the absorption
of burgeoning oil revenues, and here the Libyan experience accords
with that of other oil-rich states. The country has embarked on
ambitious policies based on oil wealth; this book charts the
development of traditional agricultural way of life, and the growth
of new industrial projects and transport systems. The effect of
Libya's new wealth on its social and political systems is also
considered in detail. In conclusion, the importance of Libya's
frontiers are discussed; although Libyan international interests
have been wide-ranging in recent years, its real external interests
are to extend its natural resource base, for its future
developments will be founded on Libya's perception of its
territorial entitlement. First published in 1982.
