The politics of Libya are currently in a phase of transition.
As a result of the collapse of the Gaddafi government in August 2011 due to the Libyan civil war, Libya is under de facto administration of the National Transitional Council (NTC). The NTC pledged to organize democratic elections by April 2012, and expects Libya to develop into a constitutional democracy by 2013.
The transitional period is governed by the Constitutional Declaration issued on 3 August 2011.

—Herbert Marcuse (1898–1979)
“If American politics are too dirty for women to take part in, there’s something wrong with American politics.”
