Given the considerable shifts in the balance of power in the global order over the past decade, this chapter explains how the rise of the BRICS countries (Brazil, China, South Africa, and India) as aid givers and their contestation with traditional donors is generating realignments in the structure of inter-state relations, the multilateral arrangements of the global aid system, and the main consultative forums for development cooperation. Internal dynamics of the individual BRICS countries are analyzed in separate chapters.Text1 digital file (42 p.)Application/pdfenBRICSDEVELOPMENT COOPERATIONMULTILATERAL AIDECONOMIC LIBERALIZATIONEMERGING MARKETSAID INSTITUTIONSBRAZILCHINASOUTH AFRICAINDIADONOR COUNTRIESNEOLIBERALISMGLOBALGLOBAL SOUTHDEVELOPING COUNTRIESBook Chapter
