Describe any two major constraints of the U.S. hegemony.

Answer:

At the beginning of the 21st century, the United States was a superpower. But history tells us that empires decline because they decay from within. Similarly the biggest constraints to American hegemony is from within. Two constraints of American powers are as follows:

(1) The first constraint is the institutional architecture of the American State itself. American system is based on division of power between the three organs of government, i.e., the Congress (Legislature), the Executive (President) and Judiciary.

(2) The second constraint of American Power is the open nature of the American Society. It means that there is no government control over mass media.
