Publication Metadata only Democratic BRICS as role models in a shifting global order: inherent dilemmas and the challenges ahead(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2018) N/A; Department of International Relations; N/A; Department of International Relations; Öniş, Ziya; Gencer, Alper Şükrü; Faculty Member; Master Student; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; Graduate School of Social Sciences and Humanities; 7715; N/AIndia, Brazil and South Africa constitute an important subset of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa (BRICS) and emerging powers at large in a shifting global order. The article examines the capacity of these democratic BRICS to serve as a role model to the rest of the developing world, at a time when liberal democracy seems to be experiencing serious challenges and dislocations in the Global North. The article considers the important achievements of democratic BRICS, in terms of their individual performances as well as through active cooperation strategies through organisations such as the India, Brazil and South Africa (IBSA) Dialogue Forum. Attention is drawn to the inherent structural dilemmas confronted by democratic BRICS to serve as genuine role models, given their domestic weaknesses as well as inherent constraints on their collective action strategies. Our central argument is that these countries, individually and collectively, are likely to have a crucial bearing on the future of liberal democracy on a global scale.
