- Title
The BRIC Countries from Brazilian Perspective.
- Authors
Ivanović, Ivan M.
- Abstract
Globalization has changed the world, which is not seen today as bipolar or unipolar as it was the case in the end of the 20th century. Money, goods, people, technology and ideas transgress national borders with ever increasing pace. Although it was one of the major benefits for the most developed countries, globalization also prompted the development of at that time dormant giants, undoubtedly including Brazil, Russia, India and China, jointly named by acronym the BRICs in 2001 by Jim O'Neill, analyst of Goldman Sachs. Only one of these countries is situated in the western hemisphere, in the neighborhood of the greatest world power, and it is Brazil. Is the letter 'B' in this acronym indeed meant to be included here, will Brazil successfully manage all the awaiting challenges and, following the predictions, become one of the world's greatest powers by 2040?
