This article examines the shift in the balance of power in Central Asia in the context of the United States' declining global hegemonic power. The authors analyze the hegemonic struggle between China, Russia, and the U.S. in Central Asia and its influence on the middle power formation in this region.

"Middlepowermanship dilemma" is formulated to explain why a hegemonic order has not been established in Central Asia and why middle powers have not emerged in the region.
