In order to understand contemporary Saudi society, it is imperative to focus on local contexts, particularly as Saudi society is not a homogeneous entity. Local context does not necessarily refer to the Kingdom as a unitary body, but rather to specific constituencies and regional areas. This comprehension of diverse Saudi societies is more nuanced and expansive than the traditional perspective of a relatively homogeneous Saudi society as it allows for a greater variation in the study of young Saudi male perceptions of masculinity, gender relations and marriage in everyday life. This chapter discusses perceptions of masculinity, attitudes to gender relations and the vexing problems of making a ‘good’ marriage as related to accepted Saudi socio-cultural norms. In fact, many young men maintain that a Saudi ‘social dictatorship’ exists, one based on historical socio-tribal attitudes and customs rather than solely Islamic jurisprudence and religious norms. Indeed, there is widespread recognition that these socio-cultural norms frequently govern the way ‘things are supposed to be’ in the community. Failure to follow these accepted practices can lead to family conflict and, significantly, ‘loss of face’ within society.

Since then-Deputy Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman unveiled Saudi Vision 2030 and the National Transformation Programme on 25 April 2016, a great deal of analysis has focused on the potential impact of the Vision at the national level. Prince Mohammed wanted to establish a more direct connection with the young populace, but despite the prince’s strong youth appeal, in reality he is asking more of them: more contributions to the economy, more personal sacrifice for the country. Vision 2030 is a wide-ranging plan to diversify the Kingdom’s economy and reduce oil-dependency, thereby transforming Saudi Arabia’s economic model by making the private sector the engine for growth and jobs. In light of oil price fluctuations since 2014, the Saudi government has attempted to respond to socio-economic pressures. This chapter examines young men’s attitudes to Saudi Vision 2030 and their related hopes and aspirations. It also discusses attitudes to corruption and the introduction of taxation, as well as the desire to participate in national development.
