Rising Power Coalitions: Reimagining Global Governance?

Through the formation and strengthening of partnerships such as BRICS (Brazil-Russia-India-
China-South Africa), rising powers have increasingly exerted influence in global governance.
Following the war in Ukraine and the subsequent deepening of the geopolitical divide between
the United States and its allies and rising powers, it has become common to discuss the
evolving "bloc politics" and the "New Cold War."
This conference examines how rising powers understand and utilize their
strategic relationships, what drives their convergence, and how their collective statecraft
impacts the United States and the international order. How should the U.S. government
respond to the deepening strategic partnership among rising powers? Is a reset of major power
relations feasible? Is this crisis an opportunity to reimagine global governance?  
This conference is hosted by the Center for International Environment and Resource
Policy (CIERP) and funded under the Minerva Research Initiative grant no. N000141812744. Any
opinions, findings, and conclusions or recommendations are those of the speakers/authors.
