Saudi Capitalism Aims to Reorder Middle East

Description

In this episode, we unpack how Saudi Arabia’s aggressive push into global capitalism—through foreign investment, tourism, and tech and infrastructure spending—could reshape Middle East politics by making economic interdependence a stronger incentive for peace than military alliances. We also examine the risks behind this strategy, from inequality and human rights concerns to the possibility that any downturn in global markets could quickly expose how fragile this new model of stability might be.
