| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Paul Kennedy, the author of The Rise and Fall of the Great Powers in one of his later works, entitled Preparing for the Twenty-First Century has argued that India and China can potentially do harm to themselves and the planet, given their rising population and limited resources. He has urged upon the developed world to “apply its capital, technology and brainpower to help them.” While there may be limitations to this argument, first being a western perspective and then on considerations such as with regards to the extent to which the developed world intends helping India and China, and to what extent India and China are willing to accept the terms, if any, of that help, but one thing that the author has highlighted is of significance. This pertains to the likely ‘conflict of interests’ over common resources and market between the two countries. |
