This article analyzes endogenous and exogenous constructions of the political identities of Latin American members of the G20, namely Argentina, Brazil, and Mexico. It examines effects of G20 membership and other aspects of international relations, with a constructivist analysis of their political identities as "insiders" or "outsiders" in multilateral economic governance. G20 scholars note the forum's heterogeneity of coalitions on diverse issues, so policy divergence between the three governments is to be expected. This study focuses on the social construction of their identities in the G20, partly as a consequence of in-group perspectives and effects of the forum as what I call a "partial normative community." It analyzes official government statements; the consequences of international alliances, or lack thereof; policy objectives and agenda-setting activities, including Mexico's G20 Presidency in 2012; and overall participation of the three governments in multilateral cooperation since the 2008 financial crisis. I analyze similarities and differences between them, demonstrating the strategic consequences of political identity constructions in the G20.Este artículo analiza las construcciones endógenas y exógenas de las identidades políticas de los miembros latinoamericanos del G-20, específicamente Argentina, Brasil y México. En él se examinan los efectos de ser miembro del G-20 y otros aspectos de las relaciones internacionales, con un análisis constructivista de sus identidades políticas como "partícipes" o "excluidos" en la gobernanza económica multilateral. Los estudios sobre el G20 remarcan la heterogeneidad de las coaliciones sobre diversos temas en el foro, por lo que la divergencia política entre los tres gobiernos es de esperarse. Este estudio se centra en la construcción discursiva de sus identidades, en parte como consecuencia de las perspectivas del grupo de los partícipes y los efectos que el foro tiene en lo que yo llamo una "comunidad normativa parcial". Aquí se analizan las declaraciones oficiales de los gobiernos; las consecuencias de las alianzas internacionales, o la falta de ellas; los objetivos de las políticas y actividades establecidas en la agenda, incluyendo la Presidencia de México del G20 en 2012; y la participación global de los tres gobiernos en la cooperación multilateral desde la crisis financiera de 2008. Analizo las similitudes y diferencias entre ellos, demostrando las consecuencias estratégicas de las construcciones de identidad política en el G-20.

“…The tenth school sees the BRICS as a successful cooperator with the G20 and the G8 [Kirton, 2013d;Luckhurst, 2013]. It points to the many priority subjects, principles and actions that the BRICS and all G20 members agree on and the tendency of the BRICS to voice its distinctive dissent in reasonable, restrained, diplomatic terms.…”

“…It was later fostered by the formation of the SCO led by Russia and China. The BRICS itself first emerged at the ministerial level, as a gathering of the foreign ministers of Brazil, Russia, India and China on the margins of the opening of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in September 2006 [Roberts, 2009;Luckhurst, 2013]. The first meeting of the BRIC leaders took place on the margins of the G8 and Major Economies Meeting on Energy Security and Climate Change (MEM) in Toyako-Hokkaido on 9 July 2008 [Hansen and Sergunin, 2015].…”

“…This could jeopardize the potential mutual co-operation among those countries (Pandey, 2007;Renard, 2009). China, India, and Russia are vying for regional leadership and supremacy (Luckhurst, 2013;Narlikar, 2013;Vickers, 2013). Although relations among them have recently improved in the economic, trade, and investment areas, they have bitter historical memories of territorial and other disputes.…”

Purpose – This paper attempts to assess the economic growth prospects of the BRICS countries and their potential ability to challenge and overtake the G7 countries. Specifically, the purpose of this paper is to answer the following question: Do the BRICS represent a tangible economic threat to surpass the G7, and if so, how? Design/methodology/approach – The authors adopt a qualitative research method based on secondary data sources, such as journal publications, reports published by international organizations, and newspaper and magazine articles. Data from these different sources is compiled and presented in tabular form to provide logical support to the arguments. Findings – Based on the data analysis, the authors conclude that the BRICS have the potential to overtake the G7 in the long run. However, this objective is not likely to be as easy as presumed by economists, since a number of factors and uncertainties may deter the growing economic power and influence of the BRICS. Originality/value – At present, there is hardly any study or research in the available literature that compares these two blocs of countries. Hence, this comparative study will contribute significantly toward the advancement of future comparative economic studies.
