What is hegemony and how do theorists differ in their views regarding the strategies and motives of hegemonic states? Is a hegemon necessary to create and maintain open, stable economic regimes?

What will be an ideal response?

Answer: Extremely unequal distribution of power, "a single powerful state controls or dominates the lesser states in the international system"... can a state with military or economic power alone have hegemony or must it predominate in both areas... realists define hegemony in state-centric terms... complex of ideas social groups use to exert their authority... Liberals view hegemon in benevelonet terms as willing to "take on an undue share of the burdens of the system" by providing public goods to help create open, stablie economic regimes
