- W3127627854 abstract "During the 17 February Revolution, Libya was awash with foreign journalists; however, media coverage declined after the Gaddafi regime was overthrown. International interest in Libya decreased while threats to foreign journalists grew within a country increasingly chaotic and insecure. Ulf Laessing, Reuters bureau chief for Egypt and Sudan, was one of the few foreign journalists to remain on the ground for significant periods of time in the post-Gaddafi era. In so doing, he developed a well-deserved reputation as a highly knowledgeable observer of contemporary Libya. In Understanding Libya since Gaddafi, Laessing sets a challenging goal for himself. ‘This book is my attempt to explain why this North African country, with its embarrassment of riches and wealth of natural resources, has descended from a popular uprising against a dictator into a failed state and major security headache for its neighbours in Europe, the Middle East, and West Africa’ (p. 12). To achieve this objective, the author focuses on the militias that sprang up to oust the Gaddafi regime. When the fighting ended in October 2011, loose alliances formed during the revolution broke down as different armed groups pursued separate agendas. To explain what went wrong, Laessing devotes a chapter to Ibrahim Jathran, a militia leader whose ‘story illustrates why civilian leaders never had a chance in post-Gaddafi Libya’ (p. 11)." @default.
