The Green Book by Muammar Gaddafi

The Solution to the Problem of Democracy

A three-part political manifesto that presents a “Third Universal Theory” rejecting representative parliaments and political parties in favor of direct rule through popular committees and congresses; it denounces both capitalism and orthodox communism and proposes an economy based on social ownership, worker control of production and the abolition of wage exploitation for major resources; the final section addresses social and cultural issues—emphasizing the family, the role of women, education, and religion—and offers prescriptive views on how communities should organize daily life; overall the work combines anti‑imperialist rhetoric with a blueprint for radical restructuring of political, economic, and social institutions.
