The BRICS countries now represent half of the world's population and 40% of GDP. Seen by some as an anti-Western coalition and by others as an economic counterweight, the BRICS are gaining momentum in their desire to impose a new world order. For now, they are maneuvering to "de-dollarize" the global economy and rally as many countries in the "global South" as possible to their model. Tomorrow, will they succeed in supplanting Western institutions and values with their parallel organizations, or will Europe manage to rebalance the playing field?
