  • Brics” Economies the New Phase of Globalisation
    The Rise of “Brics” Economies the New Phase of Globalisation Aswani Alexander Assistant professor Department of management St Paul institute of professional studies Indore INTRODUCTION Coordination between Brazil, Russia, India and China (BRIC) began informally in 2006, with a working meeting of the foreign ministers of the four countries on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly. Since then, the acronym, created a few years earlier by the financial market, no longer confined itself to identifying four emerging economies. BRIC became a mechanism for cooperation in areas that have the potential to generate concrete results for Brazilians and the peoples of the other member countries. Since 2009, the Heads of State and Government of the group meet annually. In 2011, at the Sanya Summit, South Africa became part of the grouping, adding the "S" to the acronym, now BRICS. In the last 10 years, 10 Summit meetings have taken place, with the presence of all the leaders of the mechanism: 1st Summit: Yekaterinburg, Russia, June 2009; 2nd Summit: Brasília, Brazil, April 2010; 3rd Summit: Sanya, China, April 2011; 4th Summit: New Delhi, India, March 2012; 5th Summit: Durban, South Africa, March 2013; 6th Summit: Fortaleza, Brazil, July 2014; 7th Summit: Ufa, Russia, July 2015; 8th Summit: Benaulim (Goa), India, October 2016; 9th Summit: Xiamen, China, September 2017; 10th Summit: Johannesburg, South Africa, July 2018; and 11th Summit: Brasília, Brazil, November 2019 Since the first summit in 2009, BRICS has significantly expanded its activities in several fields, but it was the financial field that guaranteed greater group visibility from the outset.

  • Russia's Strategies Towards BRICS: Problems and Opportunities
    Vestnik RUDN. International Relations 2020 Vol. 20 No. 3 534—542 http://journals.rudn.ru/international‐relations Вестник РУДН. Серия: МЕЖДУНАРОДНЫЕ ОТНОШЕНИЯ DOI: 10.22363/2313-0660-2020-20-3-534-542 Research article / Научная статья Russia’s Strategies towards BRICS: Problems and Opportunities A.A. Sergunin 1 MGIMO University, Moscow, Russian Federation St. Petersburg State University, Saint-Petersburg, Russian Federation Abstract. This article aims to examine Moscow’s policy motives regarding BRICS as well as priority areas in Russia’s strategy towards this grouping. The Russian policies towards and within BRICS represent a combination of ideational and material motives. On the one hand, BRICS is important for the Kremlin in terms of status seeking: with the BRICS’ help Russia tries to return its status of a great power, shape the future world order and to make the West abide by the rules of that order. On the other hand, Moscow values its economic and strategic partnerships with the BRICS states which are important for Russia’s well-being and for counter-balancing the West in the global geopolitical and geoeconomic game. In other words, BRICS provides Russia with additional prestige in the interna- tional arena as well as greater legitimacy to its international activities. In contrast to the West’s accusations, in case of BRICS Russia’s foreign policy behavior does not fall into the category of the revisionist one. Rather, Russia (similar to other BRICS countries) prefers to act on the basis of existing international rules and norms rather than to challenge or keep them intact. Russia aims at reforming these rules to adapt them to new global realities and make them acceptable for all the members of the world community.

  • Why BRICS Matters for India
    Why BRICS matters for India Writer - Shubhajit Roy (Editor) This article is related to General Studies- Paper-II (International Relations) Indian Express 13 Nov., 2019 "As Prime Minister Narendra Modi attends the BRICS Summit in Brazil, a look at how the grouping began and has since evolved, what are the issues it will take up, and what it means for India in the global order." On Tuesday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi left for Brazil to attend the 11th BRICS Summit. What is on the agenda of this grouping, and why is it important? BRICS Summit: The origins, and now On November 30, 2001, Jim O’Neill, a British economist who was then chairman of Goldman Sachs Asset Management, coined the term ‘BRIC’ to describe the four emerging economies of Brazil, Russia, India, and China. In a paper, ‘The World Needs Better Economic BRICs’, written for the Goldman Sachs ‘Global Econom- ic Paper’ series, O’Neill — who went on to serve as Commercial Secretary to the Treasury between 2015 and 2016 in the governments headed by David Cameron and Theresa May — made a case for BRIC on the basis of econometric analyses projecting that the four economies would individually and collectively occupy far greater economic space and become among the world’s largest economies in the next 50 years or so. “In 2001 and 2002, real GDP growth in large emerging market economies will exceed that of the G7. At end-2000, GDP in US$ on a PPP basis in Brazil, Russia, India and China (BRIC) was about 23.3% of world GDP.

What these countries do share, however, is an aspiration to be “rule makers” instead of “rule takers” within global governance. The 2009 BRIC summit’s joint declaration outlined foundations for a common “thought” among member states, including the primacy of the rule of law and multilateral diplomacy with a leading role for the UN (Ministério das Relações Exteriores do Brasil 2008, 2). This produced a common standpoint and meant that the BRICS became a new driving force for change within global Copyright: governance, leading to the promotion of South-South cooperation.

The theme of the 2019 BRICS summit is "Economic Growth for an Innovative Future.” BRICS countries adopted the Brasilia Declaration. Brasilia Declaration It advocates and supports multilateralism, the central role of the U.N. in international affairs and respect for international law. Reforming Multilateral Systems: There is an urgent need to strengthen and reform the United Nations and other multilateral organisations, including the World Trade Organisation (WTO) and the International Monetary Fund (IMF), to address the significant challenges being faced by the developing countries. Support to Multilateralism: The trade war between China and the U.S. and rising protectionism is hurting the global economy. Multilateralism is crucial for emerging countries to protect their own interests. India’s Stand at the Summit 1/3 Intra-BRICS trade accounts for just 15% of world trade, it needs to be increased. India invited business leaders of the member nations for investment, particularly in infrastructure development. India proposed to hold the first meeting of BRICS Water Ministers in India.
