التفاعلات والقضايا الإقليمية في الشرق الأوسط من منظور النظرية الواقعية

Abstract

This research attempts to explain the permanent conflict in the region of Middle East since the beginning of the Twentieth century. Hence, the Middle East has a complex regional system consisting of countries whose borders were formed by the international powers to serve their interests without regard to the interests of its peoples. Consequently this region has become the focus of non-ending conflict in the past, present and perhaps in the future. Since the theory of realism is one of the most theories of international relations, the foundations of which are not complicated to explain the international conflicts and have a clear and specific vision for international actors and how to interact between them. We have made an effort to add them to explain the permanent conflict in the Middle East and through it is clear that the Middle East in general is divided into three dimensions of conflicts of the countries which are having contradictory interests: the Iranian-Saudi conflict, the Turkish-Middle East policies, and the Israeli’s conflict in the Middle East. Each of these interactions, based on regional hegemony and domination of the major states in the Middle East, has brought this region in line with the direction of its foreign policy. The consequences of these regional interactions, the region is on a consistent of a state of permanent instability.
