The BRICS and the Transformation of Global Power

Economic Expansion, Political Coordination, and Diplomatic Strategies in a Changing World Order

Francesco Petrone

Business & Economics / Development / Economic Development

This book offers a unique analysis of the economic and political rise of the BRICS.   It examines their contribution to the global economy and international institutions, as well as their contrasting interests and agendas. The BRICS’ place within the global order is acknowledged to highlight the role they have in promoting sustainable development, encouraging South-South cooperation, developing new technologies, and participating in global governance. Understanding the trajectories of these emerging economies is essential for identifying new responses to contemporary global challenges. 

Moving beyond Western-centric perspectives, the book explores both the opportunities and constraints facing the BRICS and other emerging economies, while also emphasizing the importance of identifying common ground to address present and future global issues. It will be of interest to students, scholars, and policymakers working in development economics, global governance, and international relations.

Francesco Petrone is a Lecturer in International Relations at the Open University of Catalonia and a Professor of World History and Philosophy at I.I.S. Peano in Italy.
