I explore the central mode of ambivalence that is enunciated in the narrative and interpret it to be both the affective blueprint of the productive effects of political power on the emerging subject as well as a structure of feeling that reflects the sense of life in a certain period of Libyan social organization under the Jamahiriya regime. cache/fn106w94c19.txt txt/fn106w94c19.txt
