Theory uncovers how hegemonic suppression creates conditions for chaos and institutional collapse. Implications arise for understanding international relations.
Key Points
The theory asserts that international order is a temporary construct, not a stable state.
Coercive containment is pivotal for a hegemon's dominance but leads to its own downfall.
Moral fatigue and an epistemic crisis catalyze the collapse of established order.
The cycle of chaos and order reshapes international relations, suggesting history is non-linear.
