| الملخص: | Since the 1990s, there has been a growing body of literature in international
relations that looks at the unipolar world order that emerged from the ashes of the Cold
War. Most of these works, however, tend to focus on describing the characteristics of
this unipolar world or predicting its longevity. This working paper contends that such
approaches do not pay adequate attention to how non-leading states in the international
system are attempting to respond to American primacy of power in this age of unipolarity.
The author argues that conventional conceptions of international politics that frame state
reactions to superior power within the bounds of balancing and bandwagoning are
inadequate to understand how state actors are trying to advance and preserve interests in
relation to preponderant American power. |
