Resumo: The United Arab Emirates has spent the last two decades working to transform its coastline, expanding territory and creating monumental artificial landscapes like the artificial islands, to shift its oil-based economy to a service and tourism economy. The rapid expansion of urban land cover has posed serious challenges for the sustainability of the country. This article, which has the Palm Jumeirah Island as an example, aims to study the design, construction of the islands and their relation to sustainability. The work is based on previous recognition of the area, by the author, from site visits, bibliographical surveys, photographic records and observations.  A field study was needed due to the lack of similar previous research. The results showed that interventions in Dubai, such as Palm Jumeirah Island, brought good and significant changes to the economy (as desired), but generated socio-cultural conflicts as well as environmental problems, especially in the maritime environment.

El objetivo era cambiar su economía, antes basada en el petróleo, a una economía de servicios y turismo. El desarrollo rápido del suelo urbano ocasionó serios retos para la sostenibilidad del país. Este artículo, que tiene la isla artificial Palm Jumeirah como ejemplo, tiene como finalidad estudiar el diseño, la construcción de la isla y su relación con la sostenibilidad. Se empezará por la revisión de la literatura que identifica los términos relacionados a Barrios Sostenibles (BS), de acuerdo con lo establecido por la ONU. Seguido de un análisis de estudio de caso, con investigación de campo y aplicación de los cinco principios de BS en las islas Palm, en Dubái, para entender y explotar el concepto de sostenibilidad en el lugar. Los resultados indican que las intervenciones hechas en Dubái, como las islas Palm Jumeirah, originaron las mejorías significativas para la economía (como se deseado), pero generaron conflictos socioculturales, además de problemas ambientales, principalmente al ambiente marino.Os Emirados Árabes Unidos passaram as últimas duas décadas trabalhando para transformar seu litoral, ampliando território e criando paisagens artificias monumentais como as ilhas artificiais, para mudar sua economia baseada no petróleo para uma economia de serviços e turismo. A rápida expansão da cobertura do solo urbano acarretou sérios desafios para a sustentabilidade do País. Este artigo, que tem a Ilha Palm Jumeirah como exemplo tem como objetivo estudar o desenho, a construção das ilhas e sua relação com a sustentabilidade. Para o estudo, partiu-se do reconhecimento prévio da área, pelo autor, a partir de visitas ao local, levantamentos bibliográficos, registros fotográficos e observações. Um estudo de campo foi necessário, devido à falta de pesquisas similares anteriores. Os resultados mostraram que as intervenções feitas em Dubai, como a Ilha Palm Jumeirah, trouxeram mudanças boas e significativas para a economia (como desejado), mas gerou conflitos socioculturais, além de problemas ambientais, principalmente ao ambiente marítimo.Programa de Pós-graduação em Arquitetura e Urbanismo, Faculdade de Arquitetura e Urbanismo2020-05-08info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/paranoa/article/view/2712710.18830/issn.1679-0944.n27.2020.09Paranoá; Vol. 13 No. 27 (2020): January/June Edition; 146-170Paranoá; v. 13 n. 27 (2020): Fluxo contínuo - Janeiro/Junho ; 146-1701679-09441677-7395reponame:P@ranoáinstname:Universidade de Brasília (UnB)instacron:UNBporhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/paranoa/article/view/27127/26045Copyright (c) 2020 Paranoá: cadernos de arquitetura e urbanismoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAli, KhuloudNogueira de Vasconcellos, Virgínia Maria 2024-02-08T14:26:29Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/27127Revistahttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/paranoaPUBhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/paranoa/oaiparanoa@unb.br1679-09441677-7395opendoar:2024-02-08T14:26:29P@ranoá - Universidade de Brasília (UnB)false
