Abstract

The rapid economic development of Saudi Arabia reflects the country's commitment to achieving its Vision 2030 objectives. Vision 2030 encompasses transformative policies aimed at diversifying the economy and modernizing society. However, its implementation has been accompanied by significant political and social challenges, including resistance within the Kingdom. This study examines public perceptions of Vision 2030, focusing on the New Murabba Project as a case study. Using content analysis of social media platforms, this research identifies two distinct community groups with differing responses. The first group, consisting of young professionals and progressive citizens, supports the project as a necessary reform for economic diversification. In contrast, the second group, dominated by older and conservative religious communities, expresses concerns about potential cultural and religious implications. This study finds the duality of public opinion and underscores the importance of balancing modernity with traditional values to ensure the inclusivity of national policies.

Abstract

The Saudi Arabia Kingdom has a long history of applying Islamic law as a reference for state policies. The modernization that has taken place in Saudi Arabia certainly intersected with Wahhabism, adopted as the central ideology of the Saudi Arabia Kingdom. This study discusses Saudi Arabia's modernization efforts,  which were initiated by Muhammad bin Salman’s Vision 2030. This study was designed with a descriptive-qualitative research method and used a literature review as the data collection technique. The theories used include Talcott Parsons' structural, functional theory with a decision-making process approach and the modernization theory by Inglehart and Welzel. The results revealed that the reign of King Salman and the Saudi Arabia Kingdom implemented Vision 2030 as a modernization of Muhammad bin Salman. Saudi Arabia's administration has gone through considerable changes from time to time. Societies once known to be conservative were able to quickly implement the economic and social reforms that began to lead to a liberal system. This is owing to the king's great power and the assurance of state welfare.
