Sometimes, a state joins an international regime even with no intention to observe its norms and rules, and does subsequently fail to observe its norms and rules: I call such a delinquent member a 'negative actor' and such a defective regime an 'asymmetrical regime.' This study tries to explain (1) why a negative actor would agree to participate in a regime and, (2) whether faithful member states-whom I shall call 'positive actors'-are in fact skeptical about the negative actors' sincerity and just pretend to expect them to observe the regime's norms and rules.On the other hand, a perfectly functional regime may be compromised when one or more of its member states turn into negative actors: I call this kind of regime 'dead-letter regimes.'As a typical example of the negative actor in an asymmetrical regime, this study cites the USSR in the human rights regime of the CSCE (Conference on Security and Co-operation in Europe), vis-à-vis the Western member states. As a typical example of the dead-letter regime, this study cites the human rights and democratization regime of the OSCE (Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, former CSCE), in which Belarus turned into a negative actor vis-à-vis the Western and Central European states.Throughout this study, comparative analyses are used to illuminate the relationship between the regime theory and member states' domestic factors.
