Abstract
The aim of this chapter is to provide an historical analysis of Libyan migration policies. I focus on the Libyan domestic and foreign policy agenda and the role of migration in Libya’s relations with its neighbours. In introducing the discussion in Parts III and IV of the book on the Italian-Libyan negotiations on migration, I argue that Libya has a long history of using migration and border control policies to further its domestic and foreign interests.
