dc.description.abstract | The sudden slump in oil production since 2001 has only heightened the question of an alternative to an economy
based on oil revenues, whereas the sultanate had undergone exponential development over the three preceding
decades. From this standpoint, the policy of Omanizing the labor force conditions all other issues, as it is not
merely an economic matter, but instead deeply alters the social fabric that remained intact during the era of
prosperity, thereby questioning the very legitimacy of Oman’s economic model. Omani society is currently
experiencing a rise in frustrations reflected in a resurgence of particularist prejudices and demands. Alongside this
phenomenon is an exacerbation of inequality, particularly due to the enmeshment of economic and decisionmaking
powers in the hands of the oligarchy that has benefited from these revenues since 1970. To what extent
do the changes Oman is going through today harbor a threat for the stability of a regime considered to be one of
the most stable in the region? | en_GB |
