Abstract

The study of the conflicts between Iran and Saudi Arabia has taken a careful look at the regional and international structural contradictions. The concern of these lines was emerged How the conflict process between Saudi Arabia and Iran are structured in terms of international political economy? Is the conflicts merely a sectarian identity? Writing this discourse with this hypothesis was found to be logical that Controversial processes of the new political economy, state-owned mercantilism, international finance capital, and the technical monopoly production of multinational corporations after the Brentwoods conference have paved the way for creating security challenges among governments.Iran Saudi Arabia has not been out of this symmetry, and its tension has been the result of the series of structural and economic conflicts of the international system. Hence, the interests of hegemony America in overcoming international capitalism like as weapons, oil, technology, the internet, etc..will lead to a conflict between United States hegemony and a key regional actor Iran. Following this event, the United States will work to protect the interests of multinational corporations and large Territories in the market to prevent the emergence of new emerging powers in the Middle East region. The consequence of the expansion of structural contradictions between regional power Iran and hegemonic ally Saudi Arabia will be in the form of an ideological identity of the conflict.
