For new ones springing up: this collapse would also destroy much of the groundworks of civilization in general. Destruction of the environment, exploitation of specific resources and alike might make it impossible for an advanced civilization to emerge/sustain afterwards.
Civilization is global now: prior to now all collapses of civilization we know of were only regional cultures. But maybe it depends on the cause, extent and way of collapse...we'll probably see within our lifetimes.
