A little over a decade ago Africa was being spoken of as the 'lost'
or 'hopeless' continent in the media. Now it has some of the
fastest growing economies in the world, in large part because of
the impacts of a group of large developing countries - the BRICS
(Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa). In this first book
to be written about the BRICS as a collective phenomenon, Carmody
reveals how the BRICS powers' engagements with Africa, both
individually and collectively, are often contradictory, generating
new inequalities and potentialities for development. Crucially,
Carmody shows how the geopolitics of the BRICS countries'
involvement in Africa is impacted by and impacts upon their
international relations more generally, and how the emergence of
these economies has begun to alter the very nature of
globalization, which is no longer purely a Western-led project.A
path-breaking examination of Africa's changing role in the world.
