    Kimberley 1 China's importance in the world is profound, and steadily growing. Its position as a world power is well asserted, and already has many trademarks of a superpower. China's position as a future superpower is an important topic to examine due to China's vital position in the global economy, and is a worthy contender for economic relations and military alliances of other world powers, and it is a nation from which other countries can learn a great deal. There are many great powers in the world, but “superpower” is a title typically reserved for the United States. The term “superpower” can be attributed to a country that holds great influence in the world and has the power to protect and assert this influence.1 therefore, in this regard, China can be considered a superpower as a result of its booming economy and vast military. The main factor that arouses controversy about whether or not China is a superpower is its political system. Despite China's lack of a contemporary western style democracy, it is very powerful politically and despite the issues with human rights, the government is able to successfully control the people with a high approval rating. Additionally, being a member of the United Nations Security Council, it has international influence. Through its economic influence, military force, and politics, China will be the world's next superpower. The most prominently known attribute of China's presence as an emerging superpower is its economy. China currently has the second largest Gross Domestic Product in the world.…

Rajiv launched the IT revolution during his Prime Minister's tenure. Manmohan Singh initiated the process of globalization and opened the economy. However, the corruption has increased manifold even among ministers, capitalists and bureaucrats and the Indian democracy has converted into a 'mobocracy'. The high level of terrorism also can be attributed to our politicians and misguided governance.…

    Superpower in a broader sense means a stage which has the ability to influence events and project power worldwide and has immense potential to become one. The characteristics of superpowers are firstly, the state or nation should have sizable presence in terms of area and population. Secondly, the state should have high levels of domestic cohesion, a clear sense of national identify and stable administration based on strong legal and institutional arrangements. Thirdly, the state should be economically strong and should be endowed with natural resources, particularly energy resources, minerals and metals. Such a state should have a strong industrial base backed by technological knowledge and also have strong military capabilities, particularly nuclear and missile. The combination of all these ingredients and attributes of the state should be at for higher levels than those of the majority of states in the international community. It is only then that the state can acquire the status of a superpower and be acknowledged as such. In this context, if we examine India's position, then India's quest for an influential status in world affairs in many ways had nothing to do with the substantive criteria described above. Merely clinging to the utopic idea superpower hood will not make it happen. There are some major constraints which pose a challenge to this vision.…
