Culture And Saudi Arabia 's Policy

I will talk about a topic in the social sciences and the theme that I have chosen from the curriculum goal is: “define the concept of culture and provide examples of how culture, gender roles and family relation varies from place to place and how it change over time". I will have Saudi Arabia and Canada as the focus.

A country without customs and traditions is not a rich country. It is important to each country to have its own customs and traditions.The customs and traditions each country has are own particular way of having weddings. Saudi Arabia and the United States both have unique customs and traditions when it comes to weddings. Both countries celebration with music, cake, and guests; however, the twee countries different when it comes to choosing spouses, ceremonies, and the receptions.

I think the situation is different between Australia and Saudi Arabia; Australia accepts the migrants to get permanent residence and being citizens at the end. However, Saudi Arabia gives a work permit and, which must be renewed annually.

States is the food. In fact, each country has its own style of cooking food.

The current relationship between Iran and Saudi Arabia is contentious and competitive, however it can be said that it has improved since the twentieth century when the two countries engaged in direct conflict. The two countries have a very similar political agenda, which they use religion and faith to fulfill. They use the rally around the flag concept in order to strengthen their political agendas through their religious beliefs. The idea of a Sunni/Shitte divide is not as immense within the country, but there is one. Saudi Arabia is more of a

It is noted that every Middle Eastern Country are publicly fascinated of the Dabke dance. Each of the Middle Eastern nation claims they are the best at dancing Dabke. They also claim to have to have invented the dance (Hussein, 2016). However, there is the truth and reality behind the dance. Dabke is also referred to as Dabka or even Dabkeh. It is those names that the Middle Eastern people refer to the actual dance that is normally used by different dialect. The dance is universal irrespective of someone’s roots and cultural background. Whether one comes from Iraq, Lebanon, or even Palestine, the dance is still the same. The term Dabka basically means the act of stomping (Haugbolle, 2010). The dance found its inception back in the early 1990s before the segmentation of the Middle East took place. The Middle East was segmented through the colonization process. The colonies were either the French or the British. The Middle East was a single peaceful land that had a common Dabke art. The Dabke art was widely used in celebrations, joyful events, at the weddings, at the graduation, and also in birthdays. Therefore, Dabke was well known to be a tradition that was shared. Meaning the tradition was not owned by anybody and it originated in the Middle East intended for everyone to celebrate.

Culture is the characteristics and understanding of a specific group of individuals, defined by everything from religion, beliefs, and human thoughts of behaviors and interactions. There is a variety of different cultures which encourage different perspectives or ways of thinking. The Australian culture and Saudi -Arabia culture both encourage a range of different opinions and views in regards to religion and gender. Gender in the Australian culture and Saudi-Arabia culture plays a major role in the perspectives of equality and how both cultures perceive it. Thus, Religion in the Australian culture and sudi Arabia culture is based on beliefs, morals, ethics and customs and in general the perspectives of what are right and wrong. Culture perspectives

Saudi Arabia is one of the most conservative Islamic states. The Islam is the religion that dominates all aspects of the citizen’s lives. The Islamic interpretations effects the politics, economics, businesses, and communications with other nations. For instance, Saudi Arabia and The United States have different views

Saudi Arabia’s fear after the fall of Iran in 1979 is two-fold. In the South Eastern part of the country there was a large Shia population that they feared would take up arms against the current regime. In addition, Saudi Arabia had no military, while Iran had a huge force. From looking at a map, it is evident that Iran and Saudi Arabia are only separated by a few miles. This is one of the major reasons that Saudi Arabia bought the access to nuclear weapons from Pakistan; they would look like more of a threat to Iran. Added U.S. presence brought with it culture that would penetrate the native culture and become intertwined with it. US intervention in Saudi Arabia is crucial in the rise of fast food and the development of chronic diseases such as diabetes and obesity there.

Saudi Arabia is one of the most gender segregated countries in the world. Did you know that women aren't allowed by law to drive in Saudi Arabia? The article Saudi Arabia’s Freedom Riders by Neil Macfarquhar explains how the ban on driving is just one of the many restrictions in Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia needs to be more gender equal towards women.

Woman are considered a minority in some aspects of the natural living conditions that are considered to be a basic part of people's lives in Saudi Arabia. A bunch of basic human rights is stripped away from them. One of the reasons that support this is, Woman cannot

Saudi Arabia. It's the Saudi's who pushed for a so called 'holy war' against the Russians in Afghanistan, back in the 1980s. It's the Saudi's who pushed the UN to invade Iraq in the 1990s, and who anxiously supported the coalition invasion of Iraq in 2003. Where did 16 of the 19 September the 11th hijackers came from? Wait for it...Saudi Arabia, which also gave us the rise of Bin Landen. It's Saudi Arabia who funds terrorists in Syria, turns a blind eye to the rise of the AQAP (Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula) in Yemen, and who now promises to build 200 mosques in Germany....to spread their message of Wahhabi hate. It's the Wahhabi's of Saudi Arabia who force women to wear the niqab, which is becoming more common on the streets of London. It's the Wahabbi's who behead pagans and apostates, throw gays from rooftops, ban women from driving, and refuse under any circumstance for any social liberal reforms to be carried

Saudi Arabia is a country in Southeast Asia with a population of approximately 19 million, established in 1932 by King AbdulAziz Ibn AbdulRahman Al Saud. Arabic is the official language and Islam the official religion. According to the 1992 census, 4.6 million of Saudi Arabian residents were foreign workers, which can be assumed this why in Saudi Arabia women only constitute for seven per cent of the work force in 1990 and four per cent in 2003. The Saudi literacy rate in 1970, when compared to the literacy rates of the Middle East and North Africa, was 15 per cent for men and two per cent for women. This rate was the lowest in these regions, with only Yemen and Afghanistan ranking lower. This may seem low to us, but the steep rise in literacy rate by the 1990s, must be seen as an accomplishment in the time period. Said to have one of the most tightly controlled governments on the planet by USA Today, Saudi Arabia is an Islamic theocratic monarchy, ruled over absolutely by the House of Saud, which has controlled the land since its formal recognition in 1932 and home to Islam's two most-sacred mosques. Islam's most sacred shrine, the Ka'abah, is held in the Holy Mosque of Saudi Arabia, which Muslims throughout the world turn towards devoutly in prayer five times a day. Muslims around the world study the Qur’an just as Christians study the bible. The Qur'an is a record of the

The country is Saudi Arabia, and though it is thought of by many as a rather backward country, Saudi Arabia has a rich history and culture, and it is a country that revolves around Islam and the worship of Allah as the one true God.
