Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: The American hegemon is no more. Lacking the legitimizing authority given as protector of the free world against the specter of communism, America no longer organizes interstate affairs with impunity. During the Cold War, small conflicts often had the potential to erupt into a worldwide nuclear conflagration. Without this unimaginable threat, states worldwide are no longer compelled to follow American lead. The Soviet era also shadowed the rise of strong non-state actors, many of whom transcend traditional borders. Multinational corporations, nongovernmental organizations, the market, and even global terrorists often exhibit stunning efficacy in changing governmental policies. Although states need not greatly fear these challenges to their sovereignty, the implications for hegemony may be profound. As threats to state security are increasingly asymmetric in nature, not necessitating large-scale military operations, the principal legitimizing feature of any hegemon is removed. Other states need not fear or heed the United States. This proclivity coupled with strong transboundary movements by non-state actors vying for public opinion may spell doom for a single state that can control global affairs, and therefore the end of hegemony itself.
