- Abstract
This article seeks to elucidate how Italy’s Libya policy was formed historically and what were the influencing factors herein from a macro perspective. Accordingly, Italian foreign policy is discussed under titles of colonisation period of Libya, independence and Kaddafi era and post-Kaddafi era. The discussion is made in terms of power and stability, which stand for the two pillars of Italy’s pragmatist policy on Libya. Because, from colonisation until today Italy’s Libya policy has been designated as a search for gaining power and control over this country, and assuring the stability of relations and the country as well. On the one hand, while Italy endeavours to maximise its political and economic interests; on the other hand, being sure about bringing damage to itself, Italy avoids from Libya’s fall into instability and disruption of bilateral relations. At this point, security and migration have been prominent concerns for Italy. As the article deals with Italy’s pragmatism in Libya periodically, it essentially underlines the importance and priority of Libya in Italian foreign policy.
