What Are Long-term Intentions of China?

In September 2014, Rupert Wingfield-Hayes reported on the group of marooned Filipinos trying to stand in the way of the building of new islands in the disputed South China Sea.

According to an article on the BBC News, "...Beijing is not spending billions of dollars on huge land reclamation hundreds of miles from its own coast to help fishermen. These islands are military and strategic. China is alone in claiming the whole of the South China Sea."

A few weeks ago a US surveillance plane deliberately flew close to the new islands. The crew recorded the immediate and angry Chinese response.

"Foreign military aircraft, this is Chinese navy," the operator announced, "You are approaching our military alert zone. Leave immediately!" The warning was repeated with growing irritation until the radio operator was left spluttering, "You go!"

"There is nothing in international law that says China can build islands on submerged reefs far from its own shore and then declare them military no-go zones. But that is not stopping Beijing from doing so."

From reading the sections, I remember what I know about the wild capitalism. It seems the China's behavior is similar to the wild capitalism's behavior in the previous centuries when Europeans searched new lands to invade or to colonize. It was in the stage of the world without international laws, and it seems China wants to back into the stage, destroying all rules which the world has had today. The action shows a regret of the past as Russia is regretting the period of the Soviet Union. Now there are the international laws, but China's actions are aggressive and defy the laws.

Is the behavior a necessity of development of the wild capitalism? If so, a war is the necessity because a cause of two world wars is a part of the responsibility of the development of the wild capitalism. I feel really anxious about the thought.
