Libya uprising Analysis: The Challenges of Keeping Libya Together 23 Mar 2012
The province of Cyrenaica is the latest region to have announced its intention to have greater autonomy in Libya.

WHR 1-12 cover News: Libya: Not a model for future intervention 19 Mar 2012
The 2011 Libyan operation cannot be a widely applicable model for future intervention, regardless of the military success of the campaign that helped rebels depose Qadhafi at little civilian cost. This is important to bear in mind as the unfolding crisis in Syria rumbles on, or new ones develop, claims a new report by the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI).

Qadhafi Analysis: What Qadhafi's death means 21 Oct 2011 by Shashank Joshi
The death of Colonel Qadhafi rids the world of a tyrant, but it is no milestone in the Arab Spring. To focus on the departed dictator is to miss the real story, and abstract notions of 'closure' won't magically translate into stable government. Libya Middle East and North Africa
Libya Rebels Blast Analysis: Reasons to be cautiously optimistic about post-Qadhafi Libya 24 Aug 2011 by Shashank Joshi
Dire warnings of marauding rebels soaking Tripoli's streets with blood have simply not materialised, and are unlikely to do so. We should beware of unduly inflating the ghosts of Islamism, tribal factionalism and the chaos of Baghdad haunting the new Libya. Libya Middle East and North Africa
