Go to Spanish version
ARI 143/2010 (Translated from Spanish)

The media, analysts and markets have focused a great deal of attention on the consolidation of Brazil as an emerging power, mainly in the economic and global governance spheres.

This paper argues that in order to accelerate the course of MDGs, the discourse at the September meeting should be radically different.

ARI 123/2010 - 23/7/2010
Dweep Chanana
India has increasingly sought to expand its activities as a donor, both to reposition itself as an emerging power and to use aid as an instrument for engaging with other developing countries.
