Öz
Körfez İşbirliği Konseyi (KİK) altı üyesini başta İran ve Irak olmak üzere dış tehditlere karşı korumak amacıyla kurulmuş, ancak çeşitli nedenlerle bu amacını gerçekleştirememiştir. Bu çalışma ilk olarak KİK'in kendi güvenliğini sağlayamaması nedeniyle üye devletlerin yabancı koruyucular aradığını vurgulamaktadır. İkincisi, üyeler arasındaki düşmanlık, kendi aralarındaki meselelerden değil, sınır ötesi çatışmalardan kaynaklanmaktadır. Üçüncüsü, teoriye uygun olarak, güvenlik sorunları olan ülkelerin köklü bir hükümetler arası teşkilat oluşturması zordur ve KİK'in durumu teoriye uygundur. Son olarak, KİK'in liderlik için çok adayı olduğu için bir ittifak oluşturmakta zorluklarla karşılaşmaktadırlar. Sonuç olarak, KİK'in geleceği parlak görünmemektedir ve çok az işlevi olan bir örgüt olarak kalması muhtemeldir. Bu çalışmanın, KİK'in verimsizliğine yol açan faktörleri inceleyerek Orta Doğu literatürüne katkıda bulunması beklenmektedir. Makalenin yazımında hem nitel hem de nicel araştırma yöntemleri kullanılmıştır.
