Article Abstract:

Libya's political system is undergoing challenges as the country tries to resolve its socio-economic problems while maintaining its strict security desired by leader Muammar Qadhafi. Libya's international isolation is diminishing, and Qadhafi recognizes the need to improve the petroleum industry to aid the country's development. The political structure changes provide no real change.
