Peter Zeihan (zeihan.com) has written a couple books relevant to this 4T: The Accidental Superpower and The Absent Superpower. He describes his theories in YouTube videos.
A key point he makes is that the world is on the verge of what he calls the Disorder. This will lead to wars. In Absent he devotes a chapter each to The Twilight War, The (Next) Gulf War, and The Tanker War.
In the Twilight War the Russians invade the countries to their west to create a buffer against invasion.
The (Next) Gulf War is war between Saudi Arabia and Iran. Resulting in a drastic reduction, if not complete shut down, of tanker shipments from the gulf, leading to....
The Tanker War. China and Japan will be on opposite sides, as each scrambles to secure supplies from the Gulf.
