With all the talk of Dubai’s financial state there is a side of the Dubai you might not know about.

From The Independent - The dark side of Dubai

Once the manic burst of building has stopped and the whirlwind has slowed, the secrets of Dubai are slowly seeping out.

Dubai is a living metal metaphor for the neo-liberal globalised world that may be crashing – at last – into history.
