Arab riots in the 21st century: what next? / Podtserob, A   Journal Article
Podtserob, A Journal Article

Publication 2011.
Summary/Abstract THE WAVE OF POPULAR RIOTS which swept the Middle East and North Africa and which remains the key factor behind the regional developments engulfed not only the poor countries but also those which coped both socially and economically. Between 2004 and 2009, for example, Tunisia increased per capita income from 3.5 thousand Tunisian dinars ($2.7 thousand) to 5 thousand TND ($3.9 thousand); its middle class (60% of population) accounted for 83% of total consumption; 80% were house owners; 21% had cars. In oil-rich Libya the year 2011 began very much as usual: foodstuffs and money were distributed among the poor; some families received free car coupons practically on the eve of the uprising.1

Could Libya’s decline have been predicted? / Fishman, Ben   Article
Fishman, Ben Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract The improbable Libyan revolution has undergone several phases in the past four and a half years: a burst of political activity with the discovery of newfound freedoms; a growing period of divisiveness over the pursuit of political power and the spoils of war; an inability to form a cohesive government to establish basic security and provide economic well-being for a resource-rich country; the outbreak of civil war; and the ensuing political chaos that gave space for Salafi jihadists and ultimately the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS) to gain influence across the country’s vast territory. Politicians and pundits accordingly look at Libya now through the lens of failure, attempting to identify where the revolution ran off course – or to reinforce the view that intervening in the country was misguided in the first place.
