Posthegemony

Posthegemony or post-hegemony is a period or a situation in which hegemony is no longer said to function as the organizing principle of a national or post-national social order, or of the relationships between and amongst nation states within the global order.[1] The concept has different meanings within the fields of political theory, cultural studies, and international relations.
