Prospect: China, Indien, and a pacific century

The preface of the current publication "Das Weltkapital" indicates that a next volume with the working title "The political economy of the last world power" has been planned. In that volume Robert Kurz will discuss the hopes and laments of bourgeois theoreticians who see a looming "pacific century", that is the rise of China and India to real world powers, and in the case of China even to a new hegemon. Is that a realistic scenario? Or do these countries eventually have to succumb to the crisis steamroller of a globalized capitalism? Kurz answers this question with a foward look onto his new book project.
