Membership?

Hi, Does memebership in "memebership of these alliances" means affiliation? It doesn't seem to me that alliances refer to powers, only to kind of agreements so at the moment it doesn't make sense...


"small powers tended to form temporary alliances of convenience to counterbalance the dominant military state in the system. The membership of these alliances changed over time as the different states became more powerful potential hegemons."
