Abstract

As “governance” gains momentum as one of the trajectories of the twenty-first century, the interest among ordinary citizens and practitioners in understanding how governments make policies is picking up speed as well. This chapter explores how policy agenda is set, formulated, and comes into law in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Selected theoretical models of policy making and how each might explain this important activity in the UAE are also examined.
