Population growth of small towns in Libyan Arab Jamahiriya.
The rapid population growth of small towns in Libya is examined, and future prospects are considered.  "Their growth can be attributed to natural increase, internal migration and the influx of foreigners, all of which factors have been stimulated by the State.  The paper provides detailed data on the growth and development of small towns and the changes occurring in the overall distribution and density of the Libyan population.  The reasons behind the growth and sometimes the demise of individual towns are examined."
