Resumo: | Within 44 years the United Arab Emirates (UAE) evolved from the backdrop of a subsistence economy into an innovation-driven economy characterized by a high-mass consumption society. Prudent policy-making by the UAE Federal Government was vital in providing proper guidance on the how, where and when to apply hydrocarbon revenues and support the much needed process of economic diversification. Due to its astonishing economic development the UAE has become a role model in economic diversification for oil-producing countries. In this sense, the present Master’s Final Work sheds light on the following research question - “What were the policies adopted by the United Arab Emirates Federal Government that made the Emirates economy a case of success?”. A “two building-block” rationale was adopted in order to address the research question at hand. The first “building-block” allowed us to verify that the UAE is a case of economic success. Within 44 years, the country has now one of the most competitive economies in the world and is at par with most advanced economies in terms business regulations, infrastructure and technological advancement. The second “building-block” focused on the understanding of the UAE’s Federal Government policies that fostered such success. By adopting the single-case study methodology it was possible to verify that within the UAE’s set of macroeconomic policies, diversification played a leading role and has allowed the economy to divest away from hydrocarbons dependence. Trade, Investment, Fiscal and Monetary policies have worked as tools to foster and promote both economic growth and diversification. |

A formulação de políticas económicas pelo Governo Federal dos EAU tornou-se fulcral para direcionar a utilização de receitas provenientes da exploração de petróleo e apoiar o processo de diversificação da economia. Os EAU tornaram-se assim num modelo de diversificação económica a seguir por países produtores de petróleo. Neste sentido, o presente Trabalho Final de Mestrado tem como intuito abordar a seguinte questão de investigação – “Quais foram as políticas adotadas pelo Governo Federal dos EAU que tornaram a economia dos Emirados num caso de sucesso?”. De modo a endereçar a questão de investigação mencionada, foi adotada uma lógica bipartidária constituída por dois momentos chave. Assim, num primeiro momento foi possível analisar e verificar que a economia dos EAU constitui um caso de sucesso. Em apenas 44 anos os Emirados detêm uma das economias mais competitivas a nível mundial, estando já em igualdade com as economias avançadas. Num segundo momento foram analisadas as políticas delineadas pelo Governo Federal dos EAU que promoveram o caso de sucesso. Através da adoção metodológica de um único estudo de caso, foi possível verificar que de um conjunto de políticas macroeconómicas apresentadas, a diversificação económica desempenhou um papel predominante. Já o conjunto de políticas comerciais, investimento, fiscais e monetárias funcionaram como catalisadores do crescimento económico e processo de diversificação da economia dos EAU.Leitão, Alexandra Paula Branco PintoVeritati - Repositório Institucional da Universidade Católica PortuguesaDelgado, Pedro Alexandre Azevedo Dias Lima2017-03-08T15:34:25Z2016-12-0620162016-12-06T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.14/21667TID:201464390enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-07-12T17:27:49Zoai:repositorio.ucp.pt:10400.14/21667Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T18:18:02.395775Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
