英文摘要	At the 42(nd) session of the World Heritage Committee (the Committee) in 2018 history was made: The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's World Heritage nomination, 'Al-Ahsa Oasis, an evolving cultural landscape' ('Al-Ahsa Oasis'), had received the worst possible draft decision from ICOMOS - that it 'should not be inscribed' on the World Heritage List. While the altering of draft decisions and 'upgrading' of nominations is now commonplace, Al-Ahsa Oasis was the nomination that broke the last barrier in this practice by achieving the 'ultimate upgrade' through its unprecedented inscription onto the List. In this article we explore the fall of the science-based compliance mechanisms that laid the foundation for this decision by the Committee. Drawing on participant observation at the session, audiovisual and statutory records, the Committee deliberations on Al-Ahsa Oasis are then dissected, drawing attention to how Saudi Arabia and its allies were able to write history by strategizing existing and emerging regime discourses on 'representativeness', 'climate' and 'discord'.
