Thrilled to get a hard copy of our just published Libya book. Grateful to editors
@CollombierV
&
@W_Lacher
for bringing together a team of Libyan & foreign researchers to shed light on under-researched aspects of the past 12 years based on extensive field work inside the country
We had London launch events this week at
@ChathamHouse
&
@frontlineclub
.
Large turnouts at both plus incisive questions/comments from attendees reminded us that there remains a considerable interest in Libya.
Hoping to see that translated into more & better media coverage.

Two chapters in our book (
@emad_badi
’s on Libyan youth &
@RimaHamidan
’s on Libyan women) provide a rich blend of personal experiences & anecdotes with sharp analysis.
Here, Rima recalls a popular recent joke to make a deeper point about the role of women in Libyan society.
