Reading entrepreneurial power in small Gulf states: Qatar and the UAE / Ennis, Crystal A   Journal Article
Ennis, Crystal A Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Qatar and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have become crucial players in the Middle East North Africa regional order. Few would have expected such a transformation even 20 years ago. This paper examines the constitution of Qatari and Emirati power. It demonstrates how understanding the entrepreneurial power of states is central to explanations of growth, strength, and position in regional and global orders. The analysis argues that the entrepreneurial powerhood of Qatar and the UAE is constituted by their development narrative and pursuit of status, which is facilitated by their material capabilities and their governance style characterized by flexible autocracy.
