| المستخلص: | Bibliographical Information: Dania Qleilat Al-Khateeb, Arab-Gulf Lobby in the US: Reality vs. Ambition, Translated by Mohammad Shiya, 1st Edition, Beirut, Arab Unity Studies, 2016, 256 pages. The middle-sized publication consists of 6 chapters, an introduction, conclusion, bibliography and index. In the introduction, the author argues that her product is different from the present literature exploring the absence of an Arab lobby to impact the US foreign policy in a scientific methodology. The previous studies do not address how such a lobby can be created or what it could look like. Thus, the objective which sets the plan of the study is to shed light on a significant part of the US policy. Lobbying is a constitutional right in the country, which is not familiar to the Arab culture mindset. It is concluded that there is nothing as Arab Pressure. Rather, there is sporadic effort from different states to exert pressure about different issues in different times. However, there are several challenges to the foundation of a powerful Arab-Gulf lobby, such as the multi–segmental and –sectarian composition of the Arab community, rivalry among the Arabs, the weak Arabian Gulf-Arab community relations and the manner the Arabs manage their policies. Finally, the researcher foresees the increasing importance of the lobbying on the foreign policy for a number of reasons. Firstly, national interest is no longer a clear concept for the Americans. Secondly, there has become more power in the hands of the Congress. Thirdly, due to the declining oil prices, the Arabian Gulf is gradually losing its strategic value. Fourthly, in the aftermath of the nuclear deal, Washington is showing rapprochement with Tehran. |
