Green Book
- This article is about the doctrine of Moammar Qaddafi. The Green Book is also the standards document for CD-i-format compact disks.
The
Green Book is the socialist doctrine of the
Libyan leader
Moammar Qaddafi. It contains three parts, including "The Solution to the Problem of Democracy," "The Solution of the Economic Problem," and "The Social Basis of the Third Universal Theory." The book is quite controversial because it completely rejects modern democracy and encourages the institution of a form of
direct democracy based on popular committees. Critics say that while Qaddafi uses this system in theory, he uses the committees as a tool of autocratic repression in practice.
