  • DUBAI Cushman & Wakefield Global Cities Retail Guide
    DUBAI Cushman & Wakefield Global Cities Retail Guide Cushman & Wakefield | Dubai | 2019 0 Dubai has developed into the retail hub of the Middle East and is the most sophisticated retail market in the region. The proliferation of retail development over the last ten years has led to Dubai having one of the highest retail to population densities in the world. It finished ahead of New York and London for shopping in TripAdvisor’s recently published second annual Cities Survey. Perhaps the best known of Dubai’s plentiful selection of retail malls is The Dubai Mall which is located in the heart of the prestigious Downtown Dubai and is one of the world’s most-visited retail and entertainment destination, having welcomed more than 80 million visitors annually over the last five years. Dubai Mall provides over 1,350 retail stores and over 200 food and beverage outlets, together with leisure and entertainment attractions. Its most recent expansion in 2017 provides connectivity to the attractions and amenities in the neighbouring Burj Khalifa. Other high- profile retail malls that dominate the retail market include Mall of the Emirates and Dubai Festival City. International retail brands are predominantly operated under license by ‘retail partners’ who hold licenses for multiple brands in their portfolios. These include groups such as Al Shaya, Landmark and Majid Al Futtaim. Often these retail operators can also be mall developers in their own right. These companies are very powerful in the retail sector and can make the difference between a new mall development securing attractive brands or struggling to attract the right brands and potential failure.

  • Dubai: Language in the Ethnocratic, Corporate and Mobile City Ingrid Piller, Macquarie University
    To be published in: Smakman, D. and P. Heinrich. Eds. Metrolinguistics: Urban Language Ecologies around the World. Routledge, 2017. Dubai: Language in the ethnocratic, corporate and mobile city Ingrid Piller, Macquarie University 1 Introduction In January 2012, a billboard campaign around Dubai invited viewers to reflect on the urban identity of Dubai. Designed in the style of the “Love is …” cartoons, the bilingual billboards Dubai …”) and an English translation“) ”دبي…“ contained an Arabic slogan beginning with beginning with “Dubai is …” underneath. One of these slogans (see Figure 1) read: ”دبي …195 جنسية وفرصة لتحسين مهاراتك اللغوية“ “Dubai is …195 nationalities to practice your language skills on.” The slogan was illustrated by two cartoon images: one depicted three women – two Emirati and one Western – sitting in a café, sipping coffee and chatting animatedly over an Apple- branded notebook computer. The other showed another group of three people in some sort of generic interaction: two women, one stylized as East Asian and the other as Indian, with an African man. In the background a taxi is visible, with a smiling white male passenger and a Turkish (or possibly “generic Middle Eastern”) male driver. The slogan and the images present Dubai as multilingual and multicultural cosmopolitan urban space, where people from around the globe happily mingle and interact but are also clearly marked as racially different. In this poster-case of 21st century urban conviviality, linguistic diversity is not a barrier to communication but constitutes an opportunity to learn and practice new languages. <INSERT FIGURE 1 HERE> 1 The billboard captures one of the preferred images of Dubai that now circulate globally: Dubai as utopia, including as a multilingual and multicultural utopia.

  • The Elusive Dubai Lessons in Planned Development for Fast Growing Cities
    The Elusive Dubai Lessons in planned development for fast growing cities A thesis submitted to the Graduate School of The University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Community Planning in the School of Planning of the College of Design, Art, Architecture and Planning by Venkata Krishna Kumar Matturi B.Arch. Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur June 2012 Committee Chair: Mahyar Arefi, Ph.D Committee Member: Udo Greinacher, M.Arch Abstract Increase in urbanization through globalization and population explosion has resulted in rapidly growing cities in the past few decades. Driven by market forces and moneyed interests, cities are placing larger emphasis on economic development. This increasing trend had resulted in a dramatic change in urban morphology and vernacular urban fabric is being replaced by a ‘global urban form’ that has become a commonplace around the world. Dubai, a regional financial hub and a global city, rose to prominence in a matter of few decades. Started as a mere fishing village, it has managed to modernize and build itself to global prominence. Its meteoric rise has resulted in a dramatic transformation in its physical form through single minded determination and careful planning. This research explores the impact of rapid growth on Dubai's urban form and its implications on creating an ‘Elusive Dubai’. This research also investigates the phenomenon of elusiveness in major land uses of Dubai through the analysis of surveyed data collected prior to this research. Furthermore, it attempts to draw lessons for planned rapid urban growth in cities through Dubai’s model of urbanization.
