Abstract

According to Wallerstein's global system theory, the regions have economic characteristics and are shaped by the role they play in the global economy and in the relationship with center and hegemon. The Persian Gulf region is one of the world's sub-systems of the world economy and a peripheral region of the raw materials producer, and because of the importance that the region has in the production of crude oil from the world markets and industrialized countries, there is a significant economic significance for the central countries, and in particular the United States of America as the core And hegemon of the global system. Many of the strategies and policies of the countries of this region are defined and implemented under the control and hegemony of the United States. Accordingly, the present research seeks to answer the question of that in the global economic system, what are the attitudes and approaches of the United States, as the global system hegemon, toward the Persian Gulf sub system? Seeking to answer the question, it has been suggested that the attitude and approach of the United States to the Gulf subsystem in the global economy is based on providing its fundamental strategy for securing energy and the continuation of hegemonic stability The data of this research are collected through library resources and are described in a descriptive-analytical way and within the framework of Walerstein's Global Economic Theory.
