POWER, WEALTH & ARMS IN THE HANDS OF THE PEOPLE
The administrative system in Libya is summed up in the word Jamahiriya, which literally means the state of the masses. The country is run by complete popular authority with no place for the traditional structures. Authority, wealth and the arms are all in the hands of the people.Vast areas of arid land in the desert have been turned into green and fertile tracts since the Al-Fateh Revolution of 1969. "The Green Revolution" is aimed at developing large areas of agriculture to produce complete self sufficiency in food. In the early 1950s Libya was officially rated by the United Nations as the poorest country in the world. Today, it is one of the wealthiest.
It is a unique experiment in direct democracy that was launched at the highest levels in March 1977, with the declaration of the establishment of popular authority and the rise of the age of the Jamahiriya - the state of the masses. None of Libya's outstanding achievements in the fields of education, health, housing, industry and agriculture could have been won without this fight to encourage the masses to become the masters of their own destiny.
