Inhalt
Initially conceptualized as an investment label by the US bank Goldman Sachs in 2001, BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) has more and more become a political grouping that is pushing to influence the international agenda. Brazil has been an active member of the BRICS group since its official foundation in 2009. The seminar will examine Brazil’s position in this emerging powers club and ask about the benefits and drawbacks of this membership. What does Brazil have in common with the other BRICS countries? Where do they differ? Is BRICS a coherent grouping at all? How does BRICS want to shape the new world order? What economic policies do the BRICS countries pursue and which economic problems do they face? The seminar will take a closer look at the phenomenon of BRICS – seen from the perspective of the South American power Brazil.
The seminar will be structured into 3 blocks: (I) Brazil’s economic and foreign policy (II)The phenomenon of BRICS – economic development and political positions of the group (III)The ‚B’ in the BRICS – Brazil’s bilateral and multilateral relations with the (B)RICS
The seminar is open to Bachelor and Master students. Knowledge of Portuguese is not mandatory, but is strongly welcomed as it will enable students to explore Brazilian sources.
