In this book, Feliciano de Sa Guimaraes offers an original
application of Role Theory. He proposes a theory of master role
transitions to explain how small powers can change regional powers'
master roles without changing the regional material power
distribution. Master role transition is the replacement of an
active dominant master role by a dormant or inactive role located
within one's role repertoire. Guimaraes argues that only a
combination of four necessary conditions can produce a full master
role transition: asymmetrical material interdependence,
altercasting, domestic contestation and regional contestation. In
each one of these conditions, a small power uses material and
ideational tools to promote a master role transition within the
regional power role repertoire. To test his model, Guimaraes turns
to five case studies in Latin America, Southern Africa and South
Asia: the 2006-2007 Bolivia-Brazil gas crisis, the 2008-2009
Paraguay-Brazil Itaipu Dam crisis, the 2008-2009 Ecuador-Brazil
Odebrecht crisis, the 1998 South Africa-Lesotho military
intervention crisis and the 1996India-Bangladesh Ganges water
crisis. A Theory of Master Role Transition is an excellent resource
for those studying both theory and method in International
Relations and foreign policy analysis.
