America's Allies and the Decline of US Hegemony

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"This volume provides an in-depth analysis of the main challenges that are facing US allies in the midst of the decline of America's hegemonic power". - Christopher Layne, University Distinguished Professor of International Affairs, Texas A & M University, USA.

"A very useful volume that addresses the strategic opportunities and constraints that America's allies and friends face in an era of power transition. The volume also offers some key theoretical elucidations on questions such as hegemony, relative decline, and power transition and what it takes to replace America for a possible contender like China." - T.V. Paul, James McGill Professor of International Relations and author of Restraining Great Powers: Soft Balancing From Empires to the Global Era, 2018.

"The question of American decline has overwhelmingly focused on US-China dynamics. But American hegemony has relied upon and underpins a host of alliance relationships with their own particular purposes and requirements. As the United States proves less able or less willing to sustain those relationships, US partners will be forced to look to alternative arrangements. In stark terms, this book sets out the fundamental nature of the choices facing America's allies." - Professor Nicholas Kitchen, London School of Economics, UK.
