碩士 / 國立中正大學 / 政治學所 / 98 / The main purpose of this study is to explore how norms and identity shape the idea of security among states in Arab gulf, as well as how do their regional security relations construct. I argue that the idea of security among them is affected by three major structural norms:the Arab nationalism with traditional political relations, the institution of modern state system, and the norm of Islamic community. These structural norms constructed not only the identity of states in Arab gulf, but also their idea of security including the cognition of threat and core values. However, these structural norms are not permanent, they may change with interaction among state actors and reconstruct the idea of security instead.
The Study includes four parts besides literature review and theoretical approaches:firstly, I would review the historical background of three major structural norms for understanding ideas and identity embedded in norms. Secondly, considering the regional context, I would analyze the dynamic relations among states in Arab gulf and explore what security issues they are concerned. Thirdly, I argue that the structural norms in this regional context have been reconstructed after several events, which have generated some impacts. These events are the establishment of Gulf Cooperation Council(GCC), the Second gulf war (1990) and 911(2001). I would regard the impact as significant factors resulting in the reconstruction of ideas of security. Finally, adopting the Security Community Theory and Security Complex Theory, I would analyze the present stage of security relations among states in Arab gulf.
