Dubai, where the future is rising out of the ocean (Gulf) and the desert, is one of the most fascinating places to investigate neo-liberal cosmopolitanism. With trillions of dollars invested in tourism, infrastructure and real estate, Dubai has resulted in a wide range of lifestyles mostly related to the upper classes that will remain unmatched by any other cities (old and new) for the coming years. Boris Brorman Jensen, a researcher from the Aarhus School of Architecture, provides an thorough analysis of the city and its development from past to present.
