Regional hierarchy: Authority and local international order
In: Review of international studies: RIS, Band 35, S. 35-58
Abstract
A regional security complex (RSC) is a set of states continuously affected by one or more security externalities that emanate from a distinct geographic area. In such a complex, the members are so interrelated in terms of their security that actions by any one member, and significant security-related developments inside any member, have a major impact on others. Regional orders describe how states within an RSC manage their security relations and range from balances of power, to regional power concerts, collective security organisations, pluralistic security communities, and integration. As regional states move 'up' this continuum of regional orders, relations generally become more peaceful and interactions less coloured by actual or threatened violence.
