Abstract
- Does the discipline correctly view hegemony? This piece contends that a view of hegemony with a vertical authority structure is incorrect. Hegemonic systems are better viewed as unbalanced multipolar systems. Moreover, the work contends that hegemons face constraints in the form of three handcuffs: international regimes, domestic politics, and power concentration. It is these constraints that allow an unbalanced system to remain stable. The case of Spain will be utilized to explore the theory. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
