'Arab Socialist Union of Libya' ( ASU ) is political party in Libya from 1971-1977 led by Muammar Gaddafi. Gaddafi is the leader of the party. Has deep ties to the Palestinian Liberation Organization[2]
Many aspects of Muammar Gaddafi's Libyan socialist revolution were based on that of Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser. Like Nasser, Gaddafi seized power with a Free Officers Movement, which in 1971 became the Arab Socialist Union of Libya.[3] Like its Egyptian counterpart, the Libyan ASU was the sole legal party and was designed as a vehicle for integrated national expression rather than as a political party.
Bashir Hawady was the general secretary of the party.[4] In May 1972, the Libyan ASU and the Egyptian ASU agreed to merge their two parties into a single body.[5]
