This study employs empirical methods and the V-dem index and Risse,
Sikkink scheme to fully understand the cases at various points in time.
The study discovered that under no circumstances, from the V-dem index
to the Risse scheme, was human rights upheld in Libya despite the
legislations that were put in place by Gaddafi to check it. The
legislations were instead a mere ploy to control dissents. The study
concludes that human rights has become a significant ideology that
projects propaganda.
