Document Summary

Regime type: their form of state; democratic, authoritarian, totalitarian etc. etc. (this theory says that all states of the same regime type will react the same on the international level. All democratic states will react the same way as other democratic states. ) Their sovereignty has become weaker over time, and progressively impairs their ability to carry out their domestic and international sovereign functions) Ultimately, weak states are vulnerable in the international system. Strong states can interfere and demand things from weak states that they wouldn"t be able to demand from other strong states, Despite all states being considered equal in the international system. Although all states are equal legally theoretically, in practice some states are more powerful due to an imbalance in power distribution through the international system. Because there is no authority in the states, they become havens for international terrorism, and don"t act legally/ predictably on the international level.
