Abstract:
The evolution of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) has been one of slow progression and resistance to identity unification. Although historical legacies and common threats have brought the GCC countries together, yet the GCC faces some challenges in its aim of unification. This paper seeks to answer the following question: What are the structural and political challenges that impede the process of forming a unified regional Gulf identity (RGI)? The paper will tackle the historical aspect of the GCC and the challenges that faces the establishment of an RGI.

Abstract:
Development plans across the Gulf Cooperation Council emphasise logistical infrastructure as a driver of economic diversification. Investments in maritime ports, roads, rail, airports and logistics cities are transforming the economic geography of the region. This study aims to make visible this neglected aspect of the physical transformation of the Gulf Cooperation Council with a focus on the understudied maritime container ports in Oman and Qatar. Shifting the analysis to emergent maritime logistical infrastructure at a regional level gives insight into the uneven developments within the Gulf Cooperation Council’s integration project. Three key features emerge: (a) a large degree of duplication in maritime port infrastructure across Gulf Cooperation Council states; (b) a regional hierarchy among Gulf Cooperation Council states that are resource rich and those dependent on public–private partnerships and (c) increasing competition among internationally dominant port operators looking to gain access to the Gulf Cooperation Council maritime port market. These features both reflect and reinforce competitive tensions within the regional integration project.

Abstract:
The study aimed to research the Jordanian foreign policy towards the Gulf Cooperation Council states during the period 1999-2019, as this period is an extension of the previous stages, as during which Jordanian relations with the countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council were affected as a result of the second Gulf crisis 1990, and the events of September 2001, and what followed in light of the war on Iraq and its occupation by the United States of America, where the United States emerged as a unipolar force that dominates the world.The study showed that Jordanian foreign policy towards the Gulf Cooperation Council countries was affected by regional and international changes, as relations between Jordan and the countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council were characterized by apathy and approached isolation as a result of Iraq’s occupation of Kuwait, but Jordanian relations with the Gulf Cooperation Council countries improved, as a result of The multiple visits made by King Abdullah II after he assumed power in 1999, to the countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council, as Jordan's geopolitical position contributes to enhancing security and stability for the countries of the Council in exchange for Israeli expansionist ambitions, because Jordan looks at its security cooperation with the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) in the framework of the imperatives of mutual security, which posed this perspective as one of the dimensions in the Gulf of Jordan's foreign policy, which has not changed even in periods of Arab division, or during the boycott Cooperation Council (GCC) to Jordan.

Abstract:
This study investigates the factors that influenced the economic growth of the six Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) members from 1990 to 2021. The study employed statistical methods such as ordinary least squares (OLS), fixed-effects model (FEM), and generalized method of moments (GMM) regressions to arrive at its findings. The World Bank and International Monetary Fund (IMF) databases provided the data for this paper. The six Gulf Cooperation Council members are the United Arab Emirates (UAE), the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the State of Qatar, the Sultanate of Oman, the State of Kuwait, and the Kingdom of Bahrain. In fact, the economies of Gulf Cooperation Council members (countries) are highly dependent on the oil sector. Therefore, one of the main positive indicators of gross domestic product in the Gulf Cooperation Council countries is oil prices. In addition, inflation plays a significant and positive role in supporting the gross domestic product in the Gulf Cooperation Council area. In contrast, unemployment rates and the COVID-19 pandemic impacted the gross domestic product in the Gulf Cooperation Council region significantly and negatively. The implications of this study help policymakers make the right decisions and implement policies to increase economic growth in Gulf Cooperation Council countries. Furthermore, this study supports economists and academics in conducting their research in the same field.

Abstract:
Online Financial Disclosure (OFD) is considered as one of the many outputs of advanced technology. The application of Online Financial Disclosure in the Gulf Cooperation Council Countries differs from one company to the other due to its voluntary nature and the lack of appropriate regulations. Therefore, this study aims to measure the level of Online Financial Disclosure in the Gulf Cooperation Council Countries. Extensive literature review was carried out and a checklist of 90 items (71 for content and 19 for presentation) was developed to measure the level of Online Financial Disclosure for the companies that are listed in the Gulf Cooperation Council Bourses. The findings show that the overall level of Online Financial Disclosure in the Gulf Cooperation Council is 77% but it is varies across the sampled firms according to countries and industry type. The study recommends that regulatory bodies should develop a guideline for disclosing information through the internet in order to enhance the corporate transparency level among the Gulf Cooperation Council listed companies

Abstract:
Nowadays, financial interconnectedness is the main driver of systemic risk. Thus, there is a constant need for tools to assess and manage systemic risk. This paper offers an alternative model framework to measure systemic risk and examine interconnectedness between direct exposures across banking systems in the emerging markets of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC). To ensure consistency and efficiency of systemic risk estimates and to capture its multifaceted nature, the methodology measures systemic risk using a combination of Filtered Historical Simulation and nonparametric regression and then examines the interconnectedness using a network analysis. The results reveal that shocks originating in the banking systems in Saudi Arabia may potentially cause a cascade of failures in the banking systems of most GCC countries. The banking system in Oman, however, is robust enough to withstand any ripple effect from adverse shocks affecting GCC’s major banking systems. Such results present some policy implications for regulators and supervisors and may benefit asset managers and investors in making portfolio allocation decisions.

Abstract:
Purpose – This paper aims to investigate the efficiency level of Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) banks on technical efficiency (TE), pure technical efficiency (PTE) and scale efficiency (SE). Both PTE and SE represent the potential factors that influence the efficiency of the GCC banks. In total, 43 GCC banks were observed in this study over the period from 2007 until 2011. Design/methodology/approach – The Data Envelopment Analysis, a non-parametric method using variable returns to scale under Banker, Charnes and Cooper model, was used with assets and deposit (as input) and loan and income (as output). Findings – On average, the results show that many GCC banks are operating within an optimal scale of efficiency. Nevertheless, the results also show managerial inefficiency in the use of resources. Furthermore, the results indicate that, while the larger banks (the 22 largest) tend to operate at constant returns to scale (CRS) or decreasing returns to scale, the smaller banks (the 21 smallest) are susceptible to operate at either CRS or increasing returns to scale. Research limitations/implications – Because of the chosen research method, the results may lack generalisation. Therefore, researchers are encouraged to test the propositions further. An additional implication of the results is that it was able to identify some banks that may become potential targets for outside acquisition. Practical implications – The findings should be useful to banks in the GCC in increasing their efficiencies and recognizing those with a potential for outside acquisition. Originality/value – The findings are valuable because they will facilitate the maintenance of efficient banks in the GCC. This is necessary to enable the countries to maintain a healthy and sustainable economy.

In this report, I investigate the possibility of a monetary unification among the Arab States. The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states that include Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, Kuwait and Oman are coming together on the basis of common ethnicity, religion, culture, traditions, and monetary issues. This research will discuss different factors upon which the monetary unification and the birth of a new currency depend. For comparison to the Euro, I closely examined different factors such as inflation rates, exchange rates, trade, etc. over the past decade. As stated, this examination was done to see how these factors compare with those of the Euro region to determine if a similar monetary unification among the GCC states is possible. The target date for launching the new GCC currency was January 1, 2010; however that date has long passed. Although the above mentioned factors are favorable to currency unification of the GCC states, ample time is necessary to achieve such a herculean feat. After all, the Europeans did not achieve the unification of the Euro in one night. One hurdle to unification is that the GCC states still need to control the inflation rates in their own economies. Other economic factors, such as trade, have been favorable for all the GCC states, and all the states have been doing well in terms of the U.S. dollar (USD). Although unification may not have met the January 1, 2010 goal, the GCC will still be observing the economic factors and considering other possible scenarios. All the GCC countries vow to achieve this unification.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to analyze the foreign policy outcomes of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) to understand the extent to which a Regional Intergovernmental Organization (RGO) consisting of developing nations is able to promote regional cooperation. Much of the literature on integration and the formation of Intergovernmental Organizations was developed with regard to western nations. These approaches are examined for their contributions to foreign policy behavior analysis and with respect to understanding why small and developing nations join such organizations. Final analysis of the outcomes using two scales to measure the organization's ability to promote regional cooperation reveal that the level of success was moderate and the level of political action undertaken by the GCC was generally moderate to low. Leadership is supportive of the organization but both external and internal factors contribute to the modest levels achieved so far. Issues of national sovereignty and a decade of regional conflicts affected the ability of the organization to achieve greater levels or regional cooperation.

Abstract:
The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), a regional alliance grouping the six oil- and gas-rich Arabian states of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Oman and Bahrain, was founded in 1981 with the purported aim of "effect[ing] coordination, integration and inter-connection between Member States in all fields in order to achieve unity between them" (GCC Charter: Article 4). Most political observers, nevertheless, insist that this alliance was born out of a common concern among these rich but sparsely populated and militarily vulnerable states for their security and political stability within a politically volatile region, and the need for a regional alliance with sufficient capability to safeguard their interests, sovereignty and political stability. This study was undertaken with a set of interacting aims in mind; besides the subsidiary aim of examining the structure and operation of the GCC from the perspective of competing theoretical approaches to federalism with a view to exploring their viability vis-à-vis the case of integration which the GCC represents, this study primarily aims at evaluating the GCC, as well as the political and social basis of cooperation, among its member states in the light of attitudes and perceptions within Gulf society. With regard to the former concern, the aim is to consider how useful theories of federalism are in understanding and interpreting the GCC. With regard to the latter concern, the study aims, to explore Gulf social perception of the factors underlying the emergence of the GCC, its institutions, objectives, policies and problems confronting it with a view to determining the extent and nature of both the attitudinal similarities, and discrepancies existing between different social Gulf groups as well as identifying the complex network of historical, socio-cultural and institutional affinities operating across state boundaries within the GCC. To explore perceptions of the policies and aspects of cooperation which the GCC considers central to its efforts to bring about greater unity among its member states, two surveys were undertaken among two contrasting groups: one based on a sample of top-ranking officials at the GCC Secretariat General and another based on the sample of students at Kuwait and Qatar universities.

Abstract:
The Gulf Cooperation Council was established in May 1981 by the heads of state of Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. At the time, Western observers declared security to be the prime consideration of its founders, yet security is not mentioned in the Council's foundation charter. This emphasizes the intention to promote "close coordination in all spheres, especially the economic and social" between the member states; throughout the charter the terms "coordination", "integration", " cooperation", "closer relations" and "ties" repeatedly recur. In consequence, as the Council began to make its existence felt in the international community, its activity raised the question as to whether this demonstrated the development of integration as understood in the West notwithstanding references in the preamble to the charter to concepts of Islamic and Arab unity which predate Western theories of integration. Accordingly, this study looks at the Gulf Cooperation Council in the light of theories of integration initially elaborated in the light of Western experience in order to establish whether the Council in fact constitutes a fresh attempt to promote Arab unity. It concludes that analysis of its achievements establishes the Council as a cautious and pragmatic instrument to the achievement of Arab unity while at the same time reflecting favourably on Western theories of integration based on the concept of the security community.

Abstract:
The significance of this thesis lies in the fact that it reviews the activities of a newly-born organisation, that has hardly received an authoritative legal analysis. In addition the thesis relies heavily on primary sources in examining the internal structure of the organisation. Looking at the nature of the issues involved, the principal contribution is made by applying the principles of international law to three different areas of law. These are, the law of international institutions, economic integration, inspired and influenced by the literature on the EEC, and the law of the use of force. Chapters 1-6, which deal with the institutional aspect, examine the treaty-making power within the constitutions of the six member states and how treaties enter into force according to these constitutional arrangements. This occurs despite the fact that sometimes signature is sufficient, according to the agreement concerned, to bring it into force. They further deal with the aims of establishing the organisation. Like other traditional organisations, the objectives stipulated in the instruments do not match the political realities in the state practice of the member states. The gap is widened by the realisation of the weak power entrusted to the G.C.C. organs. That the mechanism of decision-making, which requires unanimity in itself, is not binding per se, emphasises this view. They also deal with the question of membership and the political and legal implications of excluding some states in the region from the organisation. Chapter Seven mainly deals with the implementation of the Unified Economic Agreement (UEA). It examines the concept of economic integration which is generally contemplated in the agreement, but loosely adjusted to meet the political and economic realities in the member states, rather than to meet the standards of functional integration which concede a higher degree of sovereignty. A hypothetical problem is raised in the case of a conflict between the UEA and earlier treaties concluded in substantially similar terms under the Arab League auspices. Yet the invocation of de jure or de facto termination is possible by those parties to the later treaty (i.e. the UEA). The implementation of the UEA provisions may also give rise to some difficulties for those GCC member states which are bound by the GATT (i.e. Kuwait), a matter which receives some consideration in this thesis. This chapter also deals in great length with the problem of supervision within the G.C.C., which poses a real challenge for effective implementation of the UEA. Chapter Eight deals with security in the G.C.C. member states. It examines delicately the dividing line between illegal intervention and mere political propaganda. In this regard the acts of intervention and indirect aggression by Iran, which largely caused the involvement of the G.C.C. member states in the Gulf war are highlighted. Thus, a relationship between supporting Iraq financially, which is a forbidden act under the strict rules of neutrality, and the exercise of collective self-defence in the form of such funding has been argued and examined in the light of the Nicaragua Case (1986). Also of great concern is the legal position of G.C.C. member states who are not required to remain strictly neutral when they are subjected to indirect aggression. This in fact raises the issue of collective self-defence under both the Arab League and the GCC arrangements.

Abstract:
The aim of this research is to examine the current situation of university libraries in the GCC countries identifying the problems and difficulties being faced by them and suggest means and ways by which an effective library cooperation may solve these problems. A general description of library cooperation is given, including that in developing countries and in the Arab world. Apart from literature sources the material for this research was obtained by questionnaire, personal visits to university libraries and some related research institutions in the countries concerned and by some personal observations and experience. The development of library and information services in general in the CCC countries is examined, but particularly various features of university libraries, from administration to user services. University library resources, technical services, and existing cooperative activities are also discussed in detail. There are some major issues which are related to library cooperation such as financial resources, adequacy of library collections, collection development practices, uniform standards of technical processing of library materials, availability of bibliographical apparatus and experienced professional manpower. The analysis of these issues brought out factors which should motivate individual libraries to engage in a library cooperation and resource sharing network. There is no practical or well organised resource sharing programme among university libraries in the GCC countries, even the existing marginal activities are not satisfactory to all university libraries concerned. This is mainly due to the absence of a well organised central agency which should take the lead to implement a well developed cooperative model for library cooperation in the region. The various professional meetings which have been organised at a regional level emphasised the importance of establishing effective cooperative links among university libraries in the Gulf region, but little implementation of these proposals have resulted so far. With the current political situation in the Gulf region and with the limitation on financial resources, the need for effective library cooperation is emphasised now more than ever before. Therefore, this research makes some practical recommendations emphasising the need for a central agency responsible for library cooperation programmes and proposing a model for an effective resource sharing network among university libraries in the GCC countries in the hope of improving the existing situation.

Abstract:
The question addressed in this study is whether the' Gulf Coopenition Council has real potential, intention or will to develop towards stronger forms of organization leading towards integration? What is the geo-politiCal. and i~stitutional space with~n ·which the organization may expand? The inst~tutional shape and geo-political range of the·· organization are at the heart of the ~dy. The form of the study is-theoretical and analytic, calling on social and political theory and principles of law as well as politics and economy in a conventional way. Theory of regional organizations and their formal legal . qualities are important to the study. Controlled comparison with the European CommunitylUnion is made. _ The GCC is founded· on cohering factors of culture and social system, developmental economy and shared security and strategic vulnerability. 'Rentier' socio-economy, 'oil, rent and welfare' underwrite the modem Gulf States. The Gulf Cooperation Council, as presently constituted, is primarily 'intergovernmental' in character. Sovereignties are established by and in law, but joining them regionally is 'highly political'. The Charter and the Unified Economic Agreement are the 'constitutive instruments' of the organization,· hence understanding the organization is a matter of politics and of law. A new Econom~c Agreement (2001) supersedes the UEA and creates greater integrative prospects. -'Cooperation', 'coordination' and 'integration' are declared modes ofpolicy and action in the Gulf Cooperation Council. Regional enterprise may be seen to be explicitly (in the ED) or implicitly (in the GCC) an integrative course. Intergovernmentalism is a notable aspect of the GCC. Pragmatism rather than theory or ideology informs the organization, but this leads to excessive caution and concession to Member States' sovereignties, and so inhibited integrative progress. The organization's accomplishments so far are believed to fall short of intentions and expectations so that-the issue of greater 'assured effectiveness' should be pursued. Elements of developmental integration are set out in the study. Functional linkage and progressive institutionalization are indicated. However, 'creative leadership' is vital in order to pass autonomous powers of decision-making, with 'direct effect' from the Member States to the organization. Institutionalization of powers of decision-making in and for the region and powers of enforcement follow ifthe Gulf regional organization is to be advanced as a truly effective, supervening body. At present the organization relies on the 'highest authority' of its principal decision-making organ, the Supreme Council' (Ministerial Council). The principles and practices of the traditional political-legal systems ofthe six Member States prevaiL However, 'competence' to decide is not power to have implemented. 'Dual' status of the Supreme Council is discussed. The·Supreme Council, constituted as 'meetings of heads of states' (,summits') exercising their 'full powers' as Rulers, does not have the status of a substantive corporate body. The regional system is dependent on the traditional legitimacy of the Rulers' and their 'highest authority'\ and so on 'trust' among them. But transfer by analogy to the regional organization does not work. The political theory ofconsensus, consent and trust is deployed. 'Leadership choice' (or 'preference') has not driven the organization clearly in the direction of integration. Agreements founded solely in conSent and consensus are not enforceable. What is compelling in principle does not lead to 'assured effectiveness' in practice. The GCe is not based on 'rule of law', and there is no juristic instrument. The Commission for the Settlement of Disputes is irrelevant. Regionally instituted 'commercial arbitration' represents a significant element of joint economic integrative progress. Difficulties in 'unifying law(s) in the Gulf region are remarked on. The Consultative Council has been constrained in fonn and function within the prevailing traditional political concepts and practice. Advantages of unification over a wider range of the Gulf area are more evident in theory than in practice. Structural and conceptual change in. the regional organization, new imbalances of size and power would be entailed. Whatever 'enlargement' might conceivably take place would bring involvement in new economic and strategic environments, at best of mixed, or of uncertain benefit. Would the Arabian Gulf region become not so much the core of a greater unification, but a hinterland of radically changed strategic scenarios and instabilities? This does not foreclose on alternative associative forms among would-be partners.

Abstract:
Over the past year, all six Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries have updated their medium-term greenhouse gas (GHG) emission targets by submitting revised nationally determined contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement. Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), and Saudi Aramco have also announced net-zero emission targets. Work is now beginning to develop more detailed roadmaps and implementation plans, some elements of which are already laid out in the updated NDCs.
