  • Saruq Al-Hadid to Jebel Ali: Dubai's Evolving Trading Culture
    II. Analysis A cargo ship is docked at Jebel Ali port in Dubai, UAE on 14 March 2006. Saruq Al-Hadid to Jebel Ali: Dubai’s Evolving Trading Culture by Robert Mogielnicki ecent discoveries at the Saruq Al-Hadid archeological site located outside of Dubai in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) demonstrate the emirate’s connection to key trading routes dating as far back as 4,000 years ago. In light of the July 2016 inauguration of the Saruq Al-Hadid Archeology Museum by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al-Maktoum, Ruler of Dubai, it is clear that the government is making a conscious effort to reconstruct this early trading identity and promote it broadly to the public. Sheikh Mohammed’s comments at the museum’s opening reinforced the links between the archeological museum and Dubai’s trading culture: “Museums reflect the culture of the nation.”1 Saruq Al-Hadid While the museum links the region’s early trading culture to that of today, it is important to note the contin- ual evolution of Dubai’s mercantile traditions, which can be broadly categorized into three distinct phases: i) Saruq Al-Hadid, ii) Dubai Creek and iii) the proliferation of free zones. The evolution in the location of trading hubs and nature of trade over these periods had clear implications for the infrastructure of modern Dubai and for the identity of its inhabitants. Indeed, Dubai’s free zones are the modern-day manifestations of the trading culture that started in Saruq Al-Hadid and further developed around Dubai Creek. 10 Gulf Affairs II.

  • United Arab Emirates a 1988 Law Requires That All Publications Be Licensed with the Ministry of Education and Delineates Accep
    Intercultural Communication Studies XV: 2 2006 Walters, Quinn, & Jendli A New Roadmap to Life: Media, Culture, and Modernity in the United Arab Emirates Tim Walters, Zayed University, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates Stephen Quinn, Deakin University, Melbourne, Australia Adel Jendli, Zayed University, Dubai, United Arab Emirates Abstract Critical to the vision of a new United Arab Emirates is an educated, skilled workforce that fuels the intelligent growth needed in a knowledge-based economy. As the country begins developing its version of that economy, the mediated, transparent environment fundamental to this process will carry with it new visions of (and possibilities for) living life. If peaceful change is to be achieved, a transitional generation faces the conundrum of adapting the best that modernity can offer while retaining the best of tradition. As have others, this study suggests two things: that (1) media literacy, growing in part from education, is correlated with urbanization and a changing infrastructure, and that (2) media in all its forms is inseparable from the outcome of this drive to modernization. Introduction A simple way to look at culture is as a roadmap to life that facilitates the capacity to survive and adapt to an environment. Passing along shared traditions, myths, legends, ceremonies, and rituals, among other things, culture helps create shared realities. This reality is created, shaped, modified, and preserved through communication. At some moment in time, ancient forms of associations, politics, and entertainment conducted by storytelling through speech were overlaid with reading and writing, the habits of print literacy. Today that storytelling has become intertwined with electronic habits that require a newer literacy.

  • The Culture of Commercialism: Globalization in the Uae
    THE CULTURE OF COMMERCIALISM: GLOBALIZATION IN THE UAE A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of The School of Continuing Studies and of The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts of Liberal Studies By Nathan Al-Khazraji, B.A. Georgetown University Washington, D.C. July 16, 2009 THE CULTURE OF COMMERCIALISM: GLOBALIZATION IN THE UAE Nathan Al-Khazraji, B.A. Mentor: John Duke Anthony, Ph.D. ABSTRACT This study sought to examine how and in what manner the pressures of commercial globalization have impacted the traditional and historical heritage of the local national population of the United Arab Emirates. Utilizing a cultural methodology of analysis, it appears that the very traditional segments of society such as tribal relationships and decision making patterns, the sense of Arabic and Emirati identity, and the general status of women in the workforce have seemingly remained relatively unchanged by commercial globalization. In addition, many of the UAE’s cultural industries appear to have survived the age of modernization, the wave of consumerism, and the rapid influx of immigration that has swept the oil wealthy nation at an unprecedented pace. However, there do appear to be other areas of society that have exhibited relative change. While the progress of women in the workforce has not been altered dramatically, new opportunities in formalized education and limited choices in nontraditional careers for female Emiratis seem to be viable options today rather than in the past. New cultural industries have begun to emerge as a result of the Emirates’ collective push to become a regional hub for entertainment and the fine arts.

    A biannualDubai review Office of keyMarket trends Review and the. performance of Summer|2021 Dubai’s office market Dubai Office Market Review www.knightfrank.ae Summer |2021 Dubai Office Market Review. Summer|2021 Headline rents start to stabilise Headline office rents across Dubai have shown signs of stabilising, with 14 of the 26 submarkets we track registering no quarterly change in rents during Q2 2021; however, rents remain at levels last recorded in the second half of 2012, leaving occupiers firmly in the driving seat. At a submarket level, the best performers over the last 12 months have been The Greens (+6%), Business Bay (+4%) and Dubai Media City (+2%), where rents ended June at AED 88 psf, AED 78 psf and AED 151 psf, respectively. Interestingly, headline rents in The Greens are still 6.8% below their pre-pandemic levels, whereas rents at Dubai Media City have returned to pre-Covid rates. In Business Bay, the AED 3 psf increase between Q1 and Q2 2021 means rates have experienced their first increase since Q3 2019, when they stood at AED 78 psf.
