Not exactly. The "golden era" was financed off the backs of the global south, causing untold misery on Koreans, Vietnamese, Cambodians, Palestinians, Iraqis, and much more. Now, the global south is doing more south-south trade, escaping unequal exchange, and China is rising as the world's most advanced socialist state. The west is dying, but the global south is rising.
