Small poster with the image of Muammar Gaddafi. Gaddafi (1942-2011) was a Libyan revolutionary, politician, and political theorist. He was the leader of Libya as Revolutionary Chairman of the Libyan Arab Republic from 1969 to 1977, and then as the “Brotherly Leader” of the Great Socialist People’s Libyan Arab Jamahiriya from 1977 to 2011. He was initially ideologically committed to Arab nationalism and Arab socialism but later ruled according to his own Third International Theory.
When he was in the army he founded a revolutionary group which deposed the Western backed Senussi monarchy in a 1969 coup. He deported Libya’s Italian and Jewish minorities and ejected its Western military bases. He nationalized the oil industry and used the increasing state revenues for the military, fund foreign revolutionaries, and implement social programs for house building, healthcare and education projects.In 1973, he outlined his Third International Theory that year, publishing these ideas in The Green Book.
He died in 2011 when Libya was in a civil war.
