“This century” is fixed to start at 2000 until 2100, same as this decade is 2020–2029.

“Last hundred years” for the former interpretation.

Or 2001 until 2101, if you're being pedantic about the Nth century AD/CE.

(Because there is no year 0 in the AD/CE calendar, so the first century in the calendar starts in year 1, the second in 101, etc...)
