What fundamental conflict did henry r. luce imagine for the postwar world in the american century (1941)?

a. one between freedom and tyranny

b. one between men and women

c. one between capitalism and socialism

d. one between rich and poor

e. one between black and white?

The best answer is C. Capitalism and Socialism. Henry R. Luce, a founder of The Time Magazine, hoped the U.S would support Chiang Kai-shek, who was a Nationalist with Socialism ideals. Luce pleaded with President Truman and the U.S government to defend those against Communism or those against Capitalism. Even though Chiang Kai-shek lost, Luce still believed the U.S could fight Capitalism.
