The State of the Art: Trends in the Study of the BRICS and Multilateral Organizations

  • Chapter
Rising Powers and Multilateral Institutions

Part of the book series: International Political Economy Series ((IPES))

Abstract

This chapter provides a preliminary assessment of this emerging body of literature on rising powers and multilateral organizations, mapping its evolution, the main contours, foundational works, key contributions, gaps and promising future research agendas. The main finding is that the literature on the BRICS and multilateral organizations has evolved in three phases, and is currently in the middle of the third phase. The foundational work in Phase One focussed mainly on how the contemporary group of rising states positioned themselves in relation to the established multilateral arrangements and the global order more broadly. The literature in the Second Phase delved more deeply into the preferences of the individual rising states to assess whether, or to what degree, the rising powers actually want to be incorporated into the existing global multilateral arrangements. Wading into comparisons of their foreign policy agendas, the contributions gauged whether the rising powers were behaving as “status quo or revisionist” powers, the issue of their socialization into the existing multilateral arrangements, and some focussed on how best to “manage” their integration into the existing international regimes. However, for the Third Phase, we can observe an analytical shift in the focus of the emerging research and published work. Whereas the early literature, especially that related to China’s global rise (e.g. Johnston and Ross, 1999), was oriented toward managing the integration of the rising states into the established multilateral institutions, the emerging literature addresses the main gap heretofore in the literature: that is, whether the rising powers are trying to (re)shape some global norms and rules even while they selectively internalize some of the established global rules.
