Developing countries need to develop their economies and one of the most important issues related to this development is capital accumulation. Capital accumulation is no longer an easy task even for developed countries. Developing Countries have many difficulties with income generation and employment creation. There are two ways how to solve such crucial issues, even borrow finance which is expensive way or attract foreign direct investments. The new Libyan government declared its intention to develop the economy and involve it in the international economy in order to reach entire economic development. This thesis examines and explores the Libyan doing business conditions in relation to foreign direct investments in all economic sectors. The most important task of this thesis is to quantify the inflow of foreign direct investments and its impact on employment in Libya, their impact on economic growth and the impact of foreign direct investments on exports volumes. The thesis will attempt to evaluate the benefits of foreign direct investments to Libyan economy. The research examines whether they bring benefits such as the transfer of know-how, the transfer of new technologies, the introduction of new procedures and the improvement of labor force. In addition the research attempts to evaluate whether Libyan business environment is appropriate to attract foreign direct investments. The thesis conclusions will contain recommendations regarding the implemented policies and procedures which can be beneficial in improving the business environment which enables the attraction of additional foreign direct investments. The main aim of this thesis is to examine the impact of foreign direct investments on employment in Libya and to fulfill this aim there is a need to identify the main determinants that determine the evolution of employment and jobs creation in Libyan economy. Based on these calculations and conclusions of the research, certain economic measures and recommendations will be suggested. The contribution of the dissertation should therefore be based on econometric techniques that we will be able to discover the scope and potential opportunities for economic and employment policies in Libya. The study also revealed that there are many challenges facing policy makers in order to reform the business environment to make it more attractive for foreign direct investments.

Libya as many other regions under arid climates suffer from inadequate water resources to cover all the needs of this rapidly developing country. Increasing water amounts for population supply, agricultural irrigation and use for industry are needed. As groundwater is the main water source in the country it represents a natural resource of the highest economic and social importance. Conceptual and numerical models were implemented in a regional scale to show how the natural situation has been changed after heavy groundwater abstraction having occurred in the last decades in the northwestern part of Libya. Results of the numerical model indicated that the current zones of depression in piezometric surface could have been caused by smaller withdrawn amounts than previously estimated. Indicated differences in assessed withdrawn groundwater volumes seem to be quite high and might influence considerably the future possibilities of groundwater use in the study region. 6

The aim of this work is to determine whether the concept of Responsibility to Protect is able to explain why in case of the Syrian civil conflict the international community did not intervene in a similar manner as it did in Libya. Primarily, the theoretical framework is defined using the concept of Responsibility to Protect. In order to answer the research question, all criteria applied in the analysis were operationalized in accordance with the Report of the International Commission on Intervention and State Sovereignty and the Outcome Document from 2005. At the same time, concept of state sovereignty and humanitarian intervention is designed. Although the conflicts in Libya and Syria started simultaneously in 2011 during the rule of authoritarian regimes, the intrastate situations were not identical. Based on the analysis of two case studies, I came to the conclusion that the concept of Responsibility to Protect is able to sufficiently explain the different reaction of the international community, which confirmed my hypothesis. Specifically, it is the principle of right authority, which was not fulfilled in Syria, while it is necessary to note the criterion of reasonable prospect becomes with the gradual development of the conflict more and more problematic. In contrast, the intervention in...

Le changement rapide du contexte économique mondiale caractérisé par la globalisation entraîne une évolution des exigences et objectifs des investisseurs internationaux. Les gouvernements, surtout ceux des pays en développement, doivent en tenir compte et adapter leurs facteurs d'attractivité aux nouvelles attentes des entrepreneurs mondiaux. Dans ce but La Libye a commencé depuis les années 2000 à pratiquer des politiques d'ouverture et de communication afin d'attirer les investissements étrangers Ces investissements devaient contribuer au développement de son économie et à la résolution des problèmes liés à la dépendance de l'économie au secteur pétrolier. Pour cela l'Etat libyen a fait un appel à Michael PORTER et aux grandes institutions mondiales pour définir une stratégie globale. Dans cette perspective, la présente recherche se donne deux objectifs : d'une part, mettre en lumière l'environnement de l'investissement direct étranger en Libye et, d'autre part, définir une stratégie spécifique pour stimuler les investissements étrangers selon les attentes, les besoins et les exigences des firmes multinationales.Le choix d'une démarche qualitative par entretien et questionnaire auprès d'entreprises étrangères implantées en Libye permet d'avoir une évaluation exhaustive de l'attractivité du territoire libyen et d'envisager la stratégie à mettre en œuvre par l'Etat libyen pour attirer les IDE à forte valeur.L'analyse montre l'existence de deux profils bien distincts quant à l'attractivité des IDE : les investisseurs pessimistes et les investisseurs optimistes. Dans ce sens, le pays doit mener une stratégie spécifique par profil pour bien stimuler les investisseurs étrangers. L'amélioration du potentiel d'attractivité des IDE en Libye, notamment dans les secteurs hors pétrole, nécessite la mise en place de conditions d'accueil spécifiques. Il s'agit entre autres du développement des infrastructures, du renforcement de la stabilité politique après la guerre et de l'amélioration de la gestion des recettes pétrolières afin que le secteur pétrole impulse le développement des autres secteurs. / The rapidly changing global economic context characterized by globalization leads to changing requirements and goals of international investors. Governments, especially in developing countries, must take into account and adapt their attractiveness factors the new expectations of entrepreneurs worldwide. To this end Libya began in the 2000s to pursue policies of openness and communication in order to attract foreign investments These investments should contribute to the development of its economy and solving problems related to the dependence of the economy to the oil sector. For this, the Libyan government has appealed to Michael Porter and large global institutions to develop a comprehensive strategy. In this perspective, this research has two objectives: first, to highlight the environment of foreign direct investment in Libya and, secondly, to define a specific strategy to encourage foreign investment, according to the expectations the needs and requirements of multinational firms.The choice of a qualitative approach by interview and questionnaire with foreign companies operating in Libya provides a comprehensive assessment of the attractiveness of the Libyan territory and consider the strategy to be implemented by the Libyan government to attract FDI in high- value.The analysis shows the existence of two distinct profiles on the attractiveness of FDI: investors pessimistic and optimistic investors. In this sense, the country must pursue a strategy-specific profile for many stimulating foreign investors. Improving the potential attractiveness of FDI in Libya, especially in non-oil sectors, requires the implementation of specific reception conditions. These include infrastructure development, strengthening of political stability after the war and improving the management of oil revenues to the oil sector promote development of other sectors.
