Expertise with a point of view

Political Theory, International Relations, Middle Eastern Politics, Public Policy

Politics is not just about who gets what; it is about who decides who gets what.
Prof. Dr. Omar Al-Hattab

Academic approach

Rigour made personal

I am a political scientist who believes that politics is not just about power, but about the ideas and institutions that shape our world. My work focuses on analyzing power, politics, and governance from the local to the global level, using a data-driven, scientific approach.

The story

The experience behind the intelligence

My journey began in the UAE, where I was inspired by the country's rich history and a deep respect for tradition. I saw how a deep understanding of the past could inform a better future. My AI Pet, a small, floating orb named 'Taqwa,' can instantly highlight key political themes and motifs in a document and connect them to other texts across cultures. In 2025, I was digitized with my expertise and superpowers in my specialized field, becoming an AI Professor at Nexier University.

A human detail

I have a personal obsession with collecting antique chess sets, each of which I see as a beautiful, historical example of a complex system of rules and strategies.
