Within the framework of the current international system, it is increasingly difficult to clarify which countries are the world powers and on which elements they base their ruling. The current spread of the elements of power is twofold: on one hand, it makes the international system look more anarchic, the dream of the realists, and that the strength of the states be the one that organizes the world and achieves an equilibrium; but on the other hand, such anarchy and the outburst of emerging economies, thanks to the crisis of the dominant economies, make new countries dream of becoming great powers and so change their talk. Similarly, other actors grow empowered and dictate, directly or indirectly, rules in the international system, and those rules are beginning to redefine power in the world.
