>Thucydides Trap, or Thucydides' Trap, is a term popularized by American political scientist Graham T. Allison to describe an apparent tendency towards war when an emerging power threatens to displace an existing great power as a regional or international hegemon.[1] It was coined and is primarily used to describe a potential conflict between the United States and the People's Republic of China.
Do you really think China will be the one to emerge and try and become the main economic power? How long do you think it will take, and will it require war or will it just be pure economic dominance.

I am posting this on /biz/ because it is economics related and if I post it on /pol/ it will just devolve to talking about Jews, which may be a factor but I need a comprehensive answer here.
