Effectiveness of Regional Organisations in Solving Security Problems of North Africa: The Libyan Civil War (2011-2022)

Abstract

When the international competition areas and formations of power projections are examined, it is seen that the North Africa region is at the center of international conflicts and is being redesigned by the effects of the global rivalry. Besides, the civil wars that swept through and shattered the Middle East and North African countries such as Libya have demonstrated the reality that the Arab regimes and autocratic governments with very weak institutional systems are vulnerable to sudden popular events. The country has been slided into a serious political instability and civil turmoil ever since the collapse of the Gaddafi regime. After the begining of the multi-sided civil war in 2014, which is also called the second Libyan civil war, Libya has been divided into two parts as the eastern and western governments. It is also seen that the African Union and the Arab League don’t have enough capacity to respond effectively to the crises that occurred in their area of responsibility. In this study, the current situation has been revealed by examining how effective the regional organizations are in solving security problems of Libya. In addition to this, an evaluation is also presented about the necessity of viable strategies for developing their conflict management capacities.
