Is BRICS a threat to the world order?

The growing power of BRICS is one of the most unsettling trends in global politics and economics. For some, it’s finally a counterweight to the dominance of the dollar and Western corporations; for others – an alliance of authoritarian regimes under the guise of fighting for a “multipolar world.” The expansion of BRICS to include additional countries, including Arab states, is causing growing concern in Washington and Brussels. Is this the beginning of the end of the liberal order built around the U.S. and the EU? Or a natural correction of power after decades of Western hegemony? One thing is certain – the world will never be the same again. What do you think?
