== Link to WMD ==

I wonder how the Chinese weapon of mass destruction is linked to the concept of "Chinese Century". The term is mostly derived from the fast economics growth of China, and as the China WMD article states, "it possesses the smallest nuclear arsenal amongst the five major nuclear-weapon states."
I am going to remove the link. <small>—Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 07:13, 19 September 2007 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

==China was the largest economy for the past 18/20 centuries==

There has got to be something unique OUTSIDE of economics that will distinguish the 21st century "Chinese Century" from the past 18/20 centuries.

R emergence as a new largest economy doesn't count since China was already the biggest economy 18 times in a row before the British empire took that spot.

Or else, can we call the past 18/20 centuries "Chinese centuries" just based on world's largest GDP percentage share?

== Several inaccuracies. ==

There are several inaccuracies in the article.

1. Technological innovations. Every year, China publishes 5,500 pattants while the US records 550,000. China is not "number three" or projected to be number one within 50 years, and certainly not by 2012. http://www.wipo.int/export/sites/www/ipstats/en/statistics/patents/pdf/941_2010.pdf

2. "China's per capita income will hit $85,000, more than double the forecast for the European Union." completely ludacris, as it far exceeded even the theoretical sustainability of population of the Earth. which is 2 billion at 80,000 per capita- and 40 billion at 500 per capita.

http://dieoff.org/page112.htm

I also contest the validity of Robert Fogel's assessments on the future. He based his article off of assumptions of continued growth steady political atmosphere, population growth and unmeasurable factors such as education and the future health of the global econamy. While neglecting this such as inflation, currency value, overly stressed natural resources, an aging population, desertification, and other issues dealing with the health of the Chinese econamy. His views strike me personaly as incredibly vague, short sighted, and overly optimistic. Fellow economists such as Drezner have also criticized his assessments calling it unfitting, and amateurish.

While i do not deny there are several economists who predict a healthy Chinese econamy in 2040, a large majority do not belive it will exceed the US econamy, and potentially the Eurozone should it be included in the assessments. There for, i do not think it is wise to have such an isolated economist be quoted for this article.

== Delete ==

I request this article for deletion. This has been termed the asian century not the chinese century. Its also been predicted by many, includeding Goldman Sachs that India will overtake the USA and China by 2050 to become the world's largest economy. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 15:28, 29 January 2012 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== NPOV ==
The second paragraph of this article is very biased, partial copy of the Chinese section in ]s that only includes the negative views. Furthermore, the sources talks about superpower but does not seem to talk about "Chinese century". As such, I propose that this paragraph should be removed with comment to see the potential superpower article for a discussion regarding that topic. ] (]) 12:18, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

== Friedman ==

George Friedman wrote in his book, ''The Next 100 Years'', that China's economic growth will result in China collapsing due to internal rebellions.
