The Challenge of Hegemony explains how international forces subtly influence foreign, economic, and security policies of declining world powers. Using detail-rich case studies, this sweeping study integrates domestic and systemic policy to explain these countries' grand strategies. The book concludes with a discussion of the implications for the future of American foreign policy.

The Challenge of Hegemony offers a compelling reinterpretation of key historical cases and provides wise guidance as to how the United States should wield its power today."

". . . a pleasure to read. It is both theoretically sophisticated and empirically rich. Theoretically, it makes an innovative argument that draws constructively from the subfields of comparative politics and international political economy to explain the national security behavior of leading states. . . . [A] significant work that makes an innovative and important contribution to the international relations literature on hegemonic stability and power transition theory. It is, therefore, essential reading for both scholars and graduate students. In addition, Lobell's discussion of the grand strategic policy dilemmas facing the United States in the contemporary era will be of great interest to the U.S. policy community."
—International Studies Review
"[A] conceptually rigorous and tightly reasoned study. . . . Lobell reminds us that power is never value neutral but organizes commercial systems in liberal or imperial terms. Even more importantly, power organizes political societies in liberal (democratic) or imperial (authoritarian) terms."
