A Comparative Analysis of UAE Vision 2021 And Saudi Vision 2030: Examining The Political Processes And Decision-Making Leading To National Transformation

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This study offers a thorough examination of the comparative political and decision-making frameworks that drive the execution of the UAE Vision 2021 and Saudi Vision 2030. This research utilizes a qualitative document analysis augmented by the social comparative method to investigate how various governance models, legislative changes, and political systems affect national evolution in these two Gulf nations. The study examines how variations in political systems and decision-making processes influence the speed and results of each country's vision. The centralized and consultative governance structure of the UAE is emphasized as a crucial element that allows for quick and effective policy execution, demonstrating a top-down strategy that promotes rapid institutional changes. Conversely, Saudi Arabia’s slow and step-by-step strategy highlights a more cautious approach, harmonizing modernization efforts with firmly established traditional societal values and religious factors. This twofold viewpoint provides a subtle comprehension of how governance and social elements interact to influence transformational initiatives. Although access to internal government data is restricted, the analysis shows that while both nations aim for ambitious development objectives, their differing political routes highlight distinct national priorities and contextual circumstances. This research offers important perspectives on the wider political and institutional elements that influence the success and longevity of extensive national transformation initiatives in the Gulf area.
