Abstract
The rise of the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) and the advance of the 2008 global financial crisis have fuelled a fresh round of debate concerning the sustainability of transatlantic norms, ideas and institutions that have dominated global governance since its foundation. Many of the bodies and organisations that help create global governance were developed between 1945 and 1980 and have been dominated by Western actors and a Western agenda. Using role theory, this chapter looks at the rise of the BRICS within the international system and the evolution of a new agenda within global governance, such as the G20, the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank and the United Nations.
