Resumen de 'They Defeated Us All': International Interests, Local Politics, and Contested Sovereignty in Libya
Exploring three periods of contested sovereignty in Libya - 1911-1922, 1943-1951, and the present - this article examines the consequences of repeated foreign intervention in shaping competing definitions of the most desirable form of government and the best-suited political leadership within the country today. Libya's current dilemmas illustrate the consequences of a century of international ambivalence, confusion, and often duplicity about the international norms that govern statehood and sovereignty in the Arab world.
