Abstract
This study examines the role of emerging powers specifically BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) in reshaping global governance and challenging Western hegemony. It analyzes how BRICS influences international norms, economic policies, and political alliances, thereby redefining global power dynamics. The central research question is: How do BRICS countries collaborate to counter Western influence in international institutions? The article hypothesizes that through collective action and strategic partnerships, BRICS effectively challenges Western dominance by promoting inclusive development agendas and advocating for reforms in global governance structures. This case study employs qualitative analysis of BRICS summit outcomes, policy documents, and expert interviews to evaluate the bloc’s impact on global governance. The findings suggest that while BRICS faces internal challenges and external skepticism, its pursuit of a more multipolar and equitable international order reflects a shifting geopolitical landscape.
