Bu çalışmadamonarşik rejimle yönetilen Körfez İşbirliği Teşkilatı üyesi ülkelerinde Arap Baharı’nın neden diğer bölge ülkelerinde olduğu gibi etkili olmadığınınsebepleri ortaya konulmaya çalışılmıştır. Körfez İşbirliği Teşkilatı ülkeleri; Suudi Arabistan, Kuveyt, Bahreyn, Birleşik Arap Emirlikleri, Katar ve Umman’ın çok sıkı bir işbirliği içinde olması,yönetici elitlerin uzun yıllardan beri ülke yönetiminde söz sahibi olmaları, bu ülkelerin petrol ve doğalgaz gelirlerinin yüksek olması ve dolayısıylabu gelirleri tabana yayma imkanlarının oluşması ülke halklarının devlete karşı güçlü bir rejim değişikliği talebinin oluşmamasına sebebiyet vermiştir. Ayrıca Avrupa Birliği ve Amerika’nın bu ülkelerindekienerji politikalarının sekteye uğramaması için Arap Baharı’nın bu ülkelerde yayılmamasına katkıda bulunmuşlardır.
