Saudi Arabia has always been a multi-sectarian and tribal society, and many disputes between the tribes and groups in Saudi Arabia have exacerbated cleavages between the classes of Saudi society. Despite the dawn of nation-state making during the reign of King Abdul Aziz through the suppression of tribal tendencies, the exclusion of participation in political issues and demands for equality in economic capabilities will lead to a growing expectation of having active roles in society and power. On the other hand, due to the existence of a monarch and pyramidal society in Saudi Arabia, the king does not consider his accountability to the people, and this means that the king is not accountable to the lives of the people which will cause the accumulation of protests and social pressures.Therefore, the main question of this research is what are the most important gaps in Saudi society and what are the effects and consequences on this society. In this respect, cleavages in Saudi society has been analyzed, using a descriptive-analytical method, while classifying the most prominent ones, using the theory of deprivation-aggression. All these steps have been fulfilled to investigate the relationship between fundamental gaps and political violence. The results of this paper show that following Bin Salman's reforms in line with the "Vision 2030" document, the growth of socio-economic gaps in Saudi society has been erupted. This provocation of gaps, in the context of deprivation among the social classes, has increased the risk of political violence.

This paper seeks to study the effects of tradition - modernism cleavage on the political stability in Saudi Arabia. For decades, Wahhabi scholars have promoted Salafi values and beliefs, and as a result have strengthened traditional and conservative tendencies in the Saudi society, despite the decades of efforts made by Saudi leaders to advance the process of modernization in order to consolidate their power and improve governance. However, despite some challenges, the management of the tradition - modernism cleavage by Saudi leaders have sustained political stability in the country. During the Reign of King Salman, a new and rapid process of modernization began under the leadership of MBS. This newly-emerged trend is accompanied by a number of dimensions, such as restriction of Wahhabi scholars, concentration on generational changes and also cultural and social reforms with a focus on women’s situation, raises important questions about Saudi political stability. This article makes two interrelated arguments; first, it contributes that the MBS reformist policies and new developments regarding tradition - modernism cleavage causes some challenges like declining the legitimacy of government and growing tendency of people towards extremist groups. Second, these development will not lead to fundamental changes in the Saudi political system.

Good governance today depends on the best possible completion of the state-nation-building process. This issue has been placed as a serious challenge in the path of survival of the Zionist regime.  This regime has based its existence on a special and complex identity that at first glance, this special identity can be considered a strong point for survival and formation of a society;But the specific characteristics of this identity based on race and its lack of demographic diversity have created challenges for this regime.

Quds and its management and handling of its affairs are highly complicated, depending on various identity, economic, cultural and historical factors.
