Description

Explore a new perspective on international relations with A Theory of Master Role Transition by Feliciano de Sa Guimaraes. Published by Routledge, this academic work provides an original application of Role Theory to understand global power dynamics. Guimaraes explains how small powers can influence the behavior of regional hegemons without altering the actual distribution of material power. The book introduces the concept of master role transition, which occurs when an active dominant role is replaced by a dormant or inactive role from a state's existing role repertoire. This text is an essential resource for students and scholars of political science and history. It details the four necessary conditions required for a full master role transition: asymmetrical material interdependence, altercasting, domestic contestation, and other specific political factors. By examining these mechanisms, the book offers a deep look into how regional leadership shifts through identity and role changes rather than just physical strength.
