520 |b In the last decade, Tripoli, the capital city of Libya, has experienced an unprecedented growth in urban areas and the rapid expansion of suburban residential settlements into the peri-urban fringes. This (largely unplanned and informal) urban growth in Libyan society has been driven by several factors, and the surplus wealth that came from the nation’s oil revenues. With a growing economy, Tripoli city has attracted large number of migrants from the rest of Libya, adjacent countries, and sub-Saharan Africans looking for employment opportunities (or using the city as a staging post for migration to Europe). Tripoli has had to rapidly adapt to new connections with the global economy and the resulting changes in the quality of life expected by its residents. Tripoli’s population has increased rapidly, there has been a construction boom, automobile use has increased significantly, and people expect to live in bigger and less crowded homes. This paper charts the complex factors driving urban growth in West Tripoli. Whilst making comparisons with the processes of rapid urbanisation in many other countries of the Global South, this paper highlights some of the drivers of urban growth that are specific to the Libyan context. Finally, it questions the extent to which this expansion is sustainable in a country with very limited land that is suitable for urban expansion and agriculture.
