من تأخر تطوري في الماضي إلى ازدهار راهن ومستقبل واعد (دراسة مسار المملكة العربية السعودية)

Abstract: The recognition of the kingdom’s stability is of paramount importance, as it not only plays a vital role in ensuring its own security, but also in upholding regional stability and exerting economic influence. The maintenance of stability and active engagement of Saudi Arabia within the region are crucial factors in the promotion of peace and prosperity in global affairs. In light of the ongoing paradigm shift, it is imperative to undertake a comprehensive analysis and comprehension of the various facets of this transformation and its ramifications for Saudi Arabia and beyond. This study also examines the historical trajectory of the Al Saud dynasty, which may be delineated into discrete periods encompassing the emergence and decline of the initial, and subsequent Saudi states. While these nations eventually transitioned into different periods, they jointly exerted significant influence in establishing the trajectory of the contemporary Saudi nation. Saudi Arabia is confronted with both obstacles and possibilities as it navigates the ever-changing global energy landscape. The ongoing transition towards renewable energy sources calls for a re-evaluation of the nation’s reliance on fossil fuels. Nevertheless, Saudi Arabia’s strategic geographical location, robust regional relationships, religious authority, and abundant energy resources establish it as a significant global actor across multiple domains. This study explores the complex paradigm change currently occurring in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, including various dimensions of the nation. Under the current leadership, Saudi Arabia has initiated a significant process of change, marked by the reorganisation of societal structures and the formulation of a forward-looking vision for the well-being and progress of its population. The trend may be observed through the creation of new holidays, including Founding Day and Saudi Flag Day, which possess historical importance and symbolise the nation’s steadfast dedication to its historical legacy and national identity. Furthermore, this research emphasises the notable transition that Saudi Arabia has experienced, evolving from a tribal community to a contemporary nation-state in just one generation. This serves as a testament to the country’s exceptional capacity to swiftly adjust and alter.
