“…Meanwhile, India’s case can appear rather ambiguous at first glance. India seems to be outward-looking because it tends to be seen as a force that counterbalances China in Asia (Naik, 2018; Press Trust of India, 2016) and Africa (Kupriyanov, 2020). However, although the current leadership of PM Modi and his foreign policy emphasize the importance of multipolarity, which is global in its approach, his policies still follow the ‘India first’ principle (Verna, 2019).…”

This article is aimed at the analysis of the perceptions of BRICS member states – Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa – on the role of BRICS as an actor in international politics. While numerous analyses of BRICS have already been provided, little attention has been given to the deliberate self-presentation of the group per country. As such, this work examines whether these countries themselves perceive the BRICS as a political body that offers an alternative to the Western political imaginary. The focus is on how the BRICS member states construct meanings of what BRICS is and put these perspectives into dialogue with each other. Through a critical discourse analysis, this work takes the official documents released by BRICS countries (e.g. texts and speeches) and examines how these documents reflect each BRICS country’s perception of BRICS as a group. Findings show that despite BRICS’ unified agenda and plans of action, considerable heterogeneity persists in the perceptions of each BRICS member country concerning the role of BRICS in the international community. The shared vision of the BRICS members remains reflective of the Western framework. However, while the BRICS bloc may not offer a full-fledged alternative politics to that of the West, it still offers an alternative reading of contemporary international politics. Considering also its current state as a group-in-progress, BRICS is significant for its adjunct role in global governance, not least through the differences between the countries and the uncertainty of its future, challenging how to examine historical transitions.

“…Очевидно, что Индия на данный момент не в силах обеспечить конкуренцию росту китайского экономического присутствия в зоне непосредственного соседства, поэтому Дели стремится не допустить наращивания Китаем политического и военного присутствия в сопредельных странах 7 . Геополитическое соперничество двух ведущих азиатских держав проходит на фоне их расширяющегося экономического сотрудничества и усиления взаимозависимости.…”

This article focuses on the most ambitious integration initiatives, negotiations on which in recent years have been the main topic of meetings of heads of state at the highest level and at meetings of intergovernmental organizations. First of all, there are competing trade agreements – RCEP and TPP, as well as global geopolitical projects – the Chinese Belt and Road Initiative, the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue created under the auspices of the United States and the Great Eurasian partnership promoted by the Russian Federation. The analysis shows that, in fact, China has taken over the initiative to form a new world order. Currently, Chinese strategic projects are the most ambitious, consistent and attractive in comparison with the proposals of other leading powers. We have to admit that the formats of cooperation on the basis of ASEAN may become a political anachronism in the near future, to which everyone will pay tribute, but key decisions will be made at other venues.
