abstract: The findings of the research discovered some noticeable lessons for future (urban) planning in Abu Dhabi and the Arabian Peninsula. In contrast to the preliminary assumptions are the possibilities and benefits of these forms of urban planning far more extensive than the mainly discussed extremes of urbanization and architecture; let alone the possible side effects for both the city and the region. The goal to become the ‘next’ global metropolis of the twenty-first century is ambitious but the city may have the largest potential of the Middle East. If Abu Dhabi becomes the next global metropolis of the twenty-first century is difficult to predict but when aiming at its (regional) hub function, these sectors has proven to perform better in a crisis, it has the potential, especially in combination ecological modernization or the sustainable shift.
