Abstract
In this chapter, we elaborate on the nature and features of governance in the Persian Gulf and how it has contributed to conflict within countries and between countries, including a discussion on the prominent conflicts it has generated and the implications (cost) for human (education, brain drain, homeless people, refugees, etc.), political (representative and accountable governments), and economic development (institutional development and broad economic performance).
