However, some questions how institutions will be rebuilt and strengthened after the irreparable damage caused by Haftar’s failed campaign. This was the backdrop of TLN’s recent panel event “Libya: What Is Needed for December 24 Elections to Happen.” Libya: What Is Needed for December 24 Elections to Happen - May 20, 2021 Panel Conversation Salmin Asaad Women’s Rights Activist the same mistakes of past elections.

We are running out of time to solve these issues. Yes, these are minor issues. However, for smaller Libyan communities, it will affect thousands. Every vote will be important in this election. We do not want to end up with a president that received 5,000 votes from the entire country. I am not optimistic when it comes to women in Libya.

We do not want to repeat Libya: What Is Needed for December 24 Elections to Happen - May 20, 2021 Mohamed Eljarh Why did the GNU come about? The Political Analyst and Researcher GNU came about because of a legitimacy crisis in Libya. This legitimacy Mohamed Eljarh broadly analyzed the crisis started in November of 2013 when challenges that the upcoming elections the GNC tried to extend its mandate will face over the course of this year. beyond the February 2014 deadline set by the interim constitution declaration. When they wanted to extend their mandate, what happened was a nation- wide movement against this extension. When they defied that nation-wide movement, Khalifa Haftar was the result of that. He came on television and announced a coup in Libya and the freezing of the interim constitutional declaration. The coup failed and three months later he launched a military The government of national unity (GNU) operation that eventually gave Haftar the has a very limited mandate contained prominence that he has. We should learn within a very short timeframe. If it was from the lessons of the past when up to me I would not have set the 24th certain political groups of political of December as the election date.

The GNU could be categorized broadly in the mandate is very specific and is to unify following: we can see the status quo state institutions that have been divided forces, namely the HoR, the State since 2014 and to prepare the Council, and now the GNU, are using environment for elections in Libya from various tactics to try and delay reaching an operational point of view (ie., security, legal and constitutional requirements. logistically, etc.) but also to launch the After July 1st, if we have a constitutional national reconciliation project in Libya, basis and electoral law, we have a huge and then to insure there is restoration of task ahead of us to prepare the basic services, and most importantly to environment for the elections in terms of ensure the elections take place in December.

The observations about Libya’s southern situation will be very tense after the region leading up to elections. elections. Some might choose to reject those elections. These questions must be considered carefully. The political scientists should be sought to consider these challenges. If we talk about anti-election forces, they have the backing of powerful foreign actors who see the current environment and status quo to be empowering them and their influence and presence on the ground. The southern region is a different You have Libyans in power and then you situation because they do not give a lot have countries that have presence on of attention to political processes.

  • The Prospect of Libya
    FHSMUN GULF COAST 7 UNITED NATIONS SECURITY COUNCIL THE SITUATION IN LIBYA Author: Brian D. Sutliff “The prospect of Libya in freefall should give all pause, especially the vulnerable neighbours.”1 “…ensuring the democratic rights of the Libyan people, the need for a consensual government based on the principle of separation of powers, oversight and balance between them, as well as the need to empower state institutions like the Government of National Accord so that they can address the serious challenges ahead, respect for the Libyan judiciary and its independence.”2 Introduction In the aftermath of the Arab Spring of 2011 and subsequent regime changes in Egypt and Tunisia, the overthrow of Muammar Qaddafi’s3 42-year long reign unleashed violence and reprisals that continue to rend Libya’s fragile social fabric and threaten to destabilize the broader region of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). While the Fund for Peace currently ranks Libya as the 28th most fragile country, simultaneously the Fund ranks Libya as experiencing the most severe deterioration of its situation over the last 10 years (2009-2019).4 Renewed violence and continued power struggles exacerbate existing regional and/or ethnic/tribal rivalries within Libya, while also attracting the attention of both neighboring and global powers. The violence and instability of the past 8 years, exemplified by General Khalifa Hiftar’s renewed assault on Tripoli, starkly illustrate the profound need for a just and enduring political solution. Scale of the Problem The estimates for the numbers of Libyans killed, wounded, and displaced, including those who have fled the country, do not garner the same attention and focus as the horrific totals emanating from Syria, but Libya’s population is approximately 35% that of Syria’s 1 International Crisis Group (ICG), “The Libyan Political Agreement: Time for a Reset”, Middle East and North Africa Report No.

  • Libya Brief | No
    Libya Brief | no. 10 June 2021 Regional Program Political Dialogue South Mediterranean Libya’s Constitutional Quagmire 1 Nedra Cherif0F Abstract While significant milestones have recently been reached in the Libyan political dialogue held under the United Nations’ auspices since November 2020, including the establishment of a new government of national unity, the holding of general elections set for December 2021 has now become the main focus of attention and a top priority of both the Libyan stakeholders and their international partners. However, persistent disagreement on the constitutional basis needed to hold these elections, and in particular on whether to rely on the draft constitution issued by Libya’s constituent assembly in 2017 or on an alternative document, may undermine the progress achieved so far and hamper the completion of the agreed roadmap. This paper will attempt to review the main obstacles that have prevented the adoption of a permanent constitution in Libya to date, and assess whether the various constitutional options currently under discussion could provide a relevant basis for Libya’s next elections. 1 Nedra Cherif is a Research Collaborator with the EUI Middle East Directions Program, Florence, Italy.

Wien, Juni 2015 Studienkennzahl lt. Studienblatt: A 784 300 Dissertationsgebiet lt. Studienblatt: Politikwissenschaft Betreuer: Univ.-Prof. Dr. Hans-Georg Heinrich ii Dedication To my parents iii Acknowledgment Timeless gratitude goes first to my supervisor Dr Hans Georg Heinrich for his patience, support and profound supervision, without which the dissertation could not have been produced. Second, my thanks to editors Abigail Rasminsky and Karin Zambra for helping me to bring about this work in a better shape. Lastly also timeless thanks to my friends and colleagues for their support, and profitable feedback. iv Abstract This study is an endeavor towards a structural explanation of the origins of the Arab Spring. In other words, it is an analysis based on the long-term trajectory that led to this climactic event. As to date, most literature is focused on the economic and social factors, which in this study are a controlled variable. As a revisited account of the theory of revolution, the study embarks on the extension of Theda Skocpol’s structural theory of social revolution (1979). Our hypothesis is that the origins of the Arab spring are what I call a political modernization situation in which new trends emerged namely: intellectual current, new organizational framework and international pressure. This may coincide with a rigidity of the ruling elite and a chance of ousting the ruling elite. Through the methodology of comparative historical analysis, the presence of these three con- ditions shall be confirmed.

  • Inside Libya Inside Libya
    REGIONAL PROGRAM POLITICAL DIALOGUE SOUTH MEDITERRANEAN INSIDE LIBYA INSIDE LIBYA February 2021 No°7 WWW.KAS.DE/POLDIMED REGIONAL PROGRAM POLITICAL DIALOGUE SOUTH MEDITERRANEAN FOREWORD The Regional Program Political Dialogue South Mediterranean (PolDiMed) of the Konrad-Ade- nauer-Stiftung (KAS) in cooperation with LIBYA DESK™ is delighted to continue our monthly reports on Libya for 2021. This format examines the most important political, economic and social developments of the previous month, which are of central importance for understanding the situation in Libya. The report is based on reliable Libyan sources and provides a summary and a contextualisation of developments in the wider Libyan context. The report is usually being published every first week of each month. While much attention has been paid to the external and geopolitical dimensions of the situa- tion in Libya, voices from within Libya are central to understanding local developments and the evolution of the Libyan conflict as well as its impact on the wider Mediterranean region. As an inclusive Libyan-led and Libyan-owned mediation with regards to the political, economic and military tracks are without alternative, these monthly reports emphasise the most important events within Libya and aim to give a better picture of what happens “Inside Libya”. INSIDE LIBYA Based on existing KAS-PolDiMed formats such as the Libya Brief and the Libya Task Force, we consider it necessary to shed light on the dynamics within Libya and to emphasise the impor- tance of continuing and facilitating a national dialogue process in the spirit of the UN-led Berlin process. We hope that these monthly reports will give our readers a better picture of the dynamics of the ongoing Libyan conflict, its actors and multiple dimensions.

  • Gaining Legitimacy in Post-Qaddafi Libya: Analysing Attempts of The
    societies Article Gaining Legitimacy in Post-Qaddafi Libya: Analysing Attempts of the Muslim Brotherhood Inga Kristina Trauthig War Studies, King’s College, London WC2R 2LS, UK; [email protected] Received: 5 August 2019; Accepted: 27 August 2019; Published: 13 September 2019 Abstract: The Libyan Muslim Brotherhood needed to manoeuvre underground for several decades, just as most opposition groups in Libya had to—because of the repression from the Qaddafi regime. In 2012, however, the political wing of the Libyan Muslim Brotherhood (LMB), the Justice and Construction Party (JCP, sometimes also called the Justice and Development Party) participated in popular elections just shortly after its inception. Seven years later, one can unanimously say that the movement was not able to take power in the country. This paper will analyse the LMB in post-revolutionary Libya by concentrating on the attempts of establishing legitimacy in the political sphere—while continuously being informed by historical influences. Methodologically, the paper examines primary sources, key academic texts but also factors in interview data from semi-structured interviews. Overall, the paper addresses the puzzle of why Libya as a predominantly Sunni, conservative country did not translate into a conservative Sunni movement like the LMB faring well; with that, derailing the impression that the whole region was “going Islamist” after the so-called Arab Spring. The LMB today is still influenced by the historical treatment it received under Qaddafi, which lead it to base itself mostly in exile, hence it struggled to entrench itself in the country. The LMB was pointed towards their opponents’ fearmongering of an alleged Islamist takeover, mostly without addressing self-inflicted wounds, such as their inability to unite or to convince major parts of the population of their political programme.
