In the UAE, gender equality is on the rise like no other Arab state. As far back as twenty years ago female university graduates outnumbered men two to one. But per usual, in the Arab world women’s work roles remain fundamentally separated from men’s with only 35 percent of UAE women part of the “national” workforce, and 80 percent classified as “household workers.” But what’s crucial here is how quickly this movement is spreading; the UAE government’s emphasis on gender empowerment largely explains this 99 percent figure of perceived respect, in a country where women, who still generally abide traditional gender roles, are encouraged to decide their own work roles. The UAE is evidence, perhaps, that ‘traditional’ gender roles need not necessarily be at odds with respect for women although this might be anathema in the Western world. Of course, this can be analyzed many ways. Traditional expectations still weigh in, and perhaps, like in most of the Arab world, many women aren’t expected to voice the dissatisfaction they feel. However, there’s reason to believe these stigmas are on their way out in the UAE with 66 percent of women working in government, and a record number in high administrative

Our President Barack Obama recently made changes to our immigration policy. He announced some major changes to the United States immigration policies. President Obamas recent changes was made through executive action. The executive action included a series of steps towards fixing our immigration policies. According to a guide to the immigration “The series of changes updates relies on the expansion of successfully implemented programs, enhanced efforts to coordinate immigration enforcement and benefit policies across agencies, and attempts to use immigration as a tool of economic and social change.”(A guide to immigration). The President executive action would retool critical aspects of the immigration system. It would change how we enforce

Based on what was read in the Schneider and Ingram paper, it mainly states that each policy theory has a lot to offer people but not usually enough for a society or population that has grown to have less trust in the government. Noticing that space between citizen and government, the paper tells about how certain policies can bring the citizens of a country back to having trust in the government again. Seeing that the government has many policies affecting people in our nation and around the world, I zoned in on one particular issue. How does immigration policy affect hispanic people trying to enter America?

Con: Should Muslim immigrants be banned from entering the United States until the government improves its ability to screen potential terrorists?

I have to admit that we are very blessed with so many beautiful and breathe taking cities in the world. Dubai is just one of the many countries which has advanced from their humble beginnings and today are multi million tourist. Dubai is another city which has moved from having not as much as other countries once did such as money and a stable economy, to one of the richest cities in the world. In 1966 oil was discovered in Dubai and was a catalyst for Dubai’s economic growth. From a country that had come from not having a stable economy and not a lot of money, it has become like I said earlier, one of the richest cities in the

Muslim immigration is a controversial issue in the country of America and is still to this day a debatable topic. Donald Trump, a presidential candidate for the US election, suggested: “A total and complete shutdown of Muslim’s entering the United States until our country’s representatives can figure out what is going on.” Although Muslim immigration can be argued against, there are key reasons why it should be accepted.

Integration of Arab immigrants is one of the most contentious issues in Europe and is becoming a huge area of concern for many European countries. More than one million asylum-seekers arrived to Europe through the Mediterranean Sea in 2015. The United Nations High Commissioner in Refugees (UNHCR) evaluated that approximately 84% of these migrants are from countries that qualify them as refugees (because of war or other circumstances). This sudden huge influx of immigrants poses a huge challenge for the European countries and how they will be integrated in European society will define the social, economical, and political future of Europe.

Another point to discuss is the matter of civil liberties within the two nations. From a western standpoint it is assumed at the application of Islamic law results in an overtly conservative situation, but after discussing the legislation and the judiciary systems it is observed that there is considerable leeway in how Qatar and the UAE function. One aspect is that both men and women are allowed to serve in the military, where Qatar is currently discussing the idea of creating more participatory roles for women in the medical, cultural and social fields of the military. One of the advocates for gender equality and Qatari UN representative, Alya Ahmed Saif Al Thani, discussed the current inequality of roles where because of the culture, it is

Our immigration system needs to change and it needs to change noe. Illegal immigrants are pouring, both good and bad. Yet despite the number of good people that are crossing over the only thing you hear is what the bad ones have done. The innocent is even being affected with this being sent back having to leave the life of an american. To fix our immigration problem, we first have to change the cynical ways of the government. With this we can filter out the actual ones that needs to leave not just anyone who is foreign. We should have a process in which people can actually earn their citizenship easier than the current one, but not as easy so that anyone could get it.

Most countries affected by the civil wars have been cut off from any regional connections therefore they weren’t able to attract many of their regular customers. The UAE has taken that to their advantage by reeling in the customers who would normally shop in Egypt, Syria, Tunisia, Libya and Yemen and give them the opportunity to shop in places in the UAE instead of in a dangerous country. This has led to a 10% rise in spending by shoppers affected by the Arab Spring. The United Arab Emirates is known as a modern country with a stable government system that the public seems to respect. Governments from different countries such as Syria have shut down Internet and power connections to avoid the world to see the troublesome county. Because of these barricades, countries such as the United States and England have been keeping a close eye, especially since they cannot export and import products between countries. Perhaps the Middle East would’ve been better off without the Arab Spring.

The United Arab Emirates is one of the most important tourist destinations in the region. The Arab spring had a very minor effect on the country’s tourism as it did not have a revolution but tourists in countries such as the Americas and Eastern Asia and some European countries were still slightly worried to visit any Arab country as it could be hit by the domino effect of the Arab Spring. UAE is not a neighboring country of any of the countries that had revolutions but it is in the same region.

The UAE was formed by the union of the coastal sheikdoms around the Arabian Gulf in 1971 by an agreement for a Federal Constitution. The country has forged ahead and the economy grew because of its oil wealth. Although now the economy is not reliant on oil and revenues come in from tourism, real estate and trading. This has promoted development in other areas like social, cultural and education. It also brought in a great influx of expat community and the Emirati population is only 20% (Gaad, 2006).

Seven different Muslim nations decided to join under one banner. While they retain their names, together they call themselves the United Arab Emirates (UAE). A nation of approximately 5,927,482 people, and the size of the state of Indiana, it is no wonder why they are comprised of many nationalities. Investigating this nation’s culture has been an enlightening experience. Furthermore, understanding this sovereign states government, culture, and its rich ties to the United States of America, helps to define why both nations come together to defeat terrorism with combined air defense.

UAE is located at the southeast end of the Arabian Peninsula on the Arabian Gulf sometimes referred to as Persian Gulf, bordering Oman , and Saudi Arabia to the south, sharing sea borders with Qatar and Iran (CIA World Factbook). The population is estimated to be 9.446 million and consists of 1.4 million Emirati citizens and 7.8 million expatriates, majority of whom came from India, Pakistan, Philippines and other Arab countries. It was established in 1971 as a federation of seven emirates (states). Each emirate is governed by a monarch; together, along with some elected representatives, they form the Federal Supreme Council – legislative organ. One of the monarchs is selected as the President of the United Arab Emirates.
