Episode 25: This month, we talk to Ahmed al-Mukhaini, Independent Scholar and GLD Collaborating Researcher, about the recent political changes in Oman. In January 2021, Oman’s Sultan Haitham declared an end to the former succession system and proclaimed a new crown prince and Basic Law of the State to allow for the modernization and transformation of the Gulf nation’s economic, political, and social structures. Ahmed explains Oman’s political system and gives us unique insights into the New Basic Law and what it means for Oman. This podcast is part of the larger GLD in the MENA project, funded by the Hicham Alaoui Foundation.
