The year 1973 is usually considered the great equaliser among major oil producers. But the Visions strategies of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, a socalled middle power and small state in the Middle East regional system, point to broadening economic relations as a great enhancer of economic power. This book explores the impact of regime type and leadership style on the two countries foreign policies. It reveals how autonomy and influence, threat perception and alliance patterns are folded into the complex and personal riyal politik and economic statecraft that sit at the core of their international relations.
