The world is too politically and economically intertwined, this will likely prevent a world war 3 while conditions are like this.
...
Allow me to explain with an example, both the USA and China are extremely powerful countries, in fact one would go as far to say they are the two most powerful countries. Even though these countries have had past discretions they are now too dependent on each other to go to war against one another.

The USA requires China's existence to produce certain goods which are vital to the economy and from what I understand China support the USA financially. It works in return too, china requires the USA's existence for it's own economy, it needs the USA for industry and employment.

It's not beneficial for either of these superpowers to go to war with each other, it would only bear negative consequences.
...
All of the worlds major powers are dependent on all the other major powers for many reasons, reasons which did not exist in the conditions of the other two world wars. It would be foolish for a powerful country to go to war with another powerful country.
...
Unless a major upset in the balance of power occurs, then I don't see another world war happening. Large wars, yes; world wars, no.
