There are similarities but there are differences as well.

Some of it depends on how much the WSC knows about Centrum's backstory. Centrum wasn't just created from the ashes of the Final War. It's probably made up of the victors in the Final War and they may well have been the people who started it.
Centrum's attitude toward the Final War appears to be that is that it's inevitable in any world without a monolithic power structure and the only way to avoid it is to create such a power structure before the Final War can happen.
This really shouldn't go over well with the WSC's post-WWI utopianism. Their Great Soviet War was fought against an irrational power but it didn't go on after that against all national governments. They really aren't as totalitarian as Centrum and are committed to building World Government through Reason and Science!.
Centrum really doesn't believe in co-operation based on rational self-interest among equals. They might want their One World State to be as fair and rational as possible but unified control of everything comes first.
