Hierarchical relationships-rules that structure both international
and domestic politics-are pervasive. Yet we know little about how
these relationships are constructed, maintained, and dismantled.
This book fills this lacuna through a two-pronged research
approach: first, it discusses how great power negotiations over
international political settlements both respond to domestic
politics within weak states and structure the specific forms that
hierarchy takes. Second, it deduces three sets of hypotheses about
hierarchy maintenance, construction, and collapse during the
post-war era. By offering a coherent theoretical model of
hierarchical politics within weaker states, the author is able to
answer a number of important questions, including: Why does the
United States often ally with autocratic states even though its
most enduring relationships are with democracies? Why do autocratic
hierarchical relationships require interstate coercion? Why do some
hierarchies end violently and others peacefully? Why does
hierarchical competition sometimes lead to interstate conflict and
sometimes to civil conflict?
