Leading experts of Libya analyse the foundations of Libya’s post-2011 order.

Over ten years from the overthrow of the Gaddafi regime, the institutions of the Libyan state remain chronically divided and undermined by systemic corruption. Libya’s bloated security sector comprises diverse networks of armed factions that control territory and operate only nominally under the state’s formal authority. Within this context, the contours of Libya’s post-2011 society are emerging. 

This half day event brings together leading scholars and analysts of Libya to analyse the foundations of Libya’s post-revolutionary order, examining how violence has remade the country and how new groups, networks and identities have formed through conflict. It will draw upon the findings from the presenters’ contributions to a newly released edited volume, Violence and Social Transformation in Libya.

Please refer to the agenda document for details on each session. 

This event will be held on the record. Simultaneous Arabic-English interpretation will be available throughout the event.
