Last vacation some friends of mine (myself included) were having a rather heated discussion about this.
We where wise enough not to start that discussion again, this went fine till yesterday.
My friend and me claimed that China has a vast amount of power almost or equal to that of a superpower like the US.
Economical, military, populous, influence on world diplomacy,…
So by these reasons we claimed that China is in fact a superpower.
The opposing party (a teacher ) said that they cant be counted as a world power for the simple reason that they don’t have a steady and secure nation and the large possibility that this nation will in fact collapse.
Due to the many ethnic minorities in China who don’t want to be Chinese but rather live autonomous, so revolts are bound to happen.
For this reason it’s not stable so not a superpower.
This is what she learned while studying history in college.
As i understood it where these the words of one single professor.
China is not and never will be a superpower is what the man claimed.
So what do you guys think of this and motivation why?
