Hi, middleground,
Sure, in respect to the global economy. With the implosion of the Soviet Union, Japan's slippage from it's former economic prominence, and the European Union's financial troubles, China is filling the voids. The difference is that China is much smarter about it's role in the world's economy than Russia, has far more growth potential than Japan ever had, and is financially solvent in ways that most countries can only dream about. So the balance of power is shifting. As to whether the earth's center of gravity is affected, only time will tell.
Regards,
Tom
