Abstract

This work aims to offer an approach to the legacy of Muammar Gaddafi as one of the most significant political figures for the modern history of Libya, and as one of the most influential regional leaders. The analysis is presented and studied under three main scopes: the legacy of Gaddafi under a State level scope, exposing him as a sponsor of State terror and violent acts towards Libyan and international population, his legacy, reflected from the political angle, opens the guidelines to identify a wide range of consequences directed from the political spheres, which significative impacted Libyan population; the his legacy at the domestic level, where a reflection and approach is carried out about its relevance through the analysis of Libyan social development indicators data during his administration, exposing a fragmented society; and on his legacy though his written works an analysis is made around the presence of crossed identities and internal conflicts expressed through their stories. Through this transversal study of the legacy of Gaddafi, it is argued it will be possible to get an approach to the impact of Muammar Gaddafi, although Libya is presentely in an unstable state and fragmented situation.
