BLOCS OR BRICS? As #BRICS gathers for its 14th summit, the global landscape has changed vastly. Since the first summit in 2009, when it was a quartet, now it’s a group of five global growth engines poised for further expansion. From bloc politics and the Cold War after World War II, followed by the rise of the U.S. as a hegemony, now it’s the story of the emergence of developing nations. With #China’s amazing ascent as the second-largest economy, can BRICS create a fairer world order? What are the milestones in its unostentatious but steady progress, especially during a global pandemic? This week’s Headline Buster brings you details often overlooked by the Western media.
Guests:
Ren Lin, head of Global Governance Division, Institute of World Economics and Politics
Swaran Singh, visiting professor, University of British Columbia
Alessandro Golombiewski Teixeira, distinguished professor, School of Public Policy and Management at Tsinghua University
