SALGADO, Eduardo Rafael. Tribes and religion in the formation and consolidation of the Saudi State. An. antropol. [online]. 2022, vol.56, n.1, pp.57-65. Epub 05-Maio-2023. ISSN 2448-6221. https://doi.org/10.22201/iia.24486221e.2022.76003.
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has created a state structure from a combination of tribal values, a monarchic governmental elite, and a powerful religious apparatus. This work will analyze the interrelation between these three variables in order to explain the current behavior of the Saudi State, achieving this objective through the anthropolo- gical definition of key concepts such as tribes and religion and their adaptation to the Saudi case. The study provides different tools to understand the consolidation of a state through variables that oppose the prevailing vision of modernity and secularism for successful states.
