Commentary argues the age of rising powers is ending

Original: The age of rising powers may be ending. But that doesn't mean the world is standing still. https://www. japantimes.co.jp

The Japan Times has published a commentary arguing that the era of rising powers — countries such as China and India rapidly gaining on established economies like the US, Japan and Germany — may be drawing to a close. The piece suggests the world is entering a period of stagnation and sclerosis, but stresses that global affairs will continue to shift even without the dramatic power transitions of recent decades.

Why now: Readers are debating whether slowing growth in emerging economies signals a fundamental shift in the global order.
