Influence of emerging countries in the new world order

Abstract

The purpose of this document is to analyze the influence of emerging countries in the world order of the 21st century, with attention in the BRICS group, made up of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa, considering the contribution made by the elements of national power within the context of international relations, in such a way that this has repercussions on regional or global leadership. Although the emerging term was used to refer to the growing economy of some countries, also other factors such as geographical, political and military, have played an important role in projecting this influence through territorial extension, the amount of population, the diplomatic presence, summits and high level meetings or participation in international organizations, which has allowed countries to be classified in significant positions in the world ranking. The data collected was obtained from important works such as Stuenkel Oliver, 2015 "The BRICS and The Future of Global Order", reports from international institutions such as the United Nations (UN), and web pages, using the descriptive method to develop the theme.
