Economic powerhouse or geopolitical experiment? A critical look at BRICS+ in the twenty-first century.
As the BRICS bloc expands beyond its original five members to include Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Indonesia, and the UAE--with Saudi Arabia invited to join--the influence of BRICS+ in global trade and geopolitics is growing. The question remains: what does this shifting balance of power mean for the world? Towards a Future for BRICS+, edited by Heiwai Tang and Brian Wong, brings together leading scholars to assess the past, present, and future of this evolving coalition. With rigorous, evidence-based analysis, this work outlines the economic and political complementarities between BRICS+ nations while also addressing internal tensions and the broader implications for the Global South. As questions linger over the viability of BRICS+ as a counterweight to the G7, this book is a valuable reference for policymakers and scholars seeking to understand the emerging global order.Author Biography
