None of the above. China has too many problems with their banking and monetary system. The labor sector of their economy is basically built on slave labor. I just returned from Beijing and they were already complaining about the job and capital flight to the cheaper labor in Vietnam.
India has better prospects than China. The system is very corrupt. If their economic growth can outpace the corruption drag, they will do very well. In reference to your question, if I had to guess, I would say India would be the next super-power.
England doesn't have a chance unless they radically reverse their policies. While the emerging economies are adopting free market reforms, most of Europe is going the other way.
Brazil has the worst corruption on your list. It is a crony system of spoils that is so deeply entrenched that I do not think they will rise out of it for a very long time.

boy....you can really get some crazies answering on here can't you?...
ISRAEL????...hahahahah
Mexico's "northern border, Canada"????...a real geography major there, isn't it...
The EU won't be ever a "superpower", simply because there are too many differing opinions of different countries....
England had its heyday a long time ago, and became the second-cousin status that it is now...Brazil has not got the resources to become a superpower, however...CHINA,,,,,now there, you've got something.
There have been many books written on the changing of the guard of superpower status,,,and one of the things that the USA needs to look very hard at is the current situation of its own wealth and power...and education !!!
the US is first militarily,,,,,and 15th in education !!!
China, however, with its 1/3 of the world's population has more intelligent and hard-working people than all of north and south american COMBINED.
The leadership, while fractioned and factional, has the full capability to ensure that they will be the next superpower...
Think of this....the USA only supplies 15% of its own oil usage to itself.....yet it uses 60% of the world supply !!!..
35% of America's oil supply comes from CANADA...and if you watched "deal or no deal" this week on TV, you will have seen that a university grad in the US didn't know that Canada is the first country North of the US.
You keep spending and buying and throwing away what you don't want...
Start to look on the "made in..." labels of your goods....check out your clothes closet...and your TV and parts of your cars..your furniture and your kids toys, the computers in your offices...where are most of them made???...China !!
methinks the superpower MILITARILY might be the US...but if China ever shut the door on trade...the mighty US would fail in a matter of weeks.
Education and technology are the keys to the future...and the US has badly missed the boat on that one..
A joke for you....
If a person speaks 4 languages...they are: multi-lingual..
3 languages: tri-lingual...
2 languages........bilingual....
1 language?.....AMERICAN
AHHAHAH..
once again...EDUCATION....the key to the superpowers of the future..

Such a silly question. Mexico will clearly be the next super power. From it's southern border in South America to it's northern border at Canada, what do you think?

You forgot the "United States of North America" which is composed of the USA, Canada, and Mexico.

China, it has the population to do this, as well as start to make everything cheaper than any other nation.
They will use this to gain power over the world.
