It examines colonization, decolonization, and postcolonization of oil in the Persian Gulf through the parameters of political order, formulated policies, market structure, concession system, imperial/national interests, and great powers rivalry. In this work, the author uses qualitative, theory testing, and comparative case study method. There are several reasons that are encouraging for the selection of these two cases: first, British colonial and American post-colonial oil policies toward the Gulf region show similar patterns of domination and exploitation; second, both colonial and post-colonial great powers consider the control of the Gulf oil among their national security priorities; third, both use military interventions, install military bases and involve in coup d’etat in the region to maintain their established oil order; and fourth, both justifies their colonial/imperial oil order in the region with humanitarian objectives such as ‘civilizing mission’ or ‘democratization.’ In this research, the state-level of analysis is used to explore the oil policies of Anglo-American governments. The governance history of oil in the Persian Gulf can be broadly divided into three phases: (1) the colonial period 1901–1950; (2) the decolonization period 1950–1972; and (3) the post-colonial period, since the mid-1970s to the present. Chronologically, the oil policies of Anglo-American governments are examined in loose temporal and spatial contexts, and each period is introduced in independent chapters, but they are complementary to each other. Battal Doğan holds doctorate (Sakarya University, Turkey) and master’s degree (American University, Egypt) in Middle East Studies. He examines the international relations of Middle Eastern countries within the context of the Global South, and investigates the vertical and horizontal North and South relations, especially through colonial, decolonial and postcolonial theories. The Global South approach offers rich theoretical frameworks for investigating what went/goes wrong between the North and the South. 0aMiddle EastxPolitics and government.969672 0aPolitical science.958714 0aImperialism.945663 0aSecurity, International.958210 0aRegionalism.97042414aMiddle Eastern Politics.96967324aPolitics and International Studies.97061024aImperialism and Colonialism.97122824aInternational Security Studies.96956024aRegionalism.9704242 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303160779008iPrinted edition:z978303160781308iPrinted edition:z9783031607820 0aMiddle East Today,x2945-702598077240uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-60780-6  aZDB-2-POS  aZDB-2-SXPI  c61689d61689
