The BRICS Summit: Half of Humanity Launches a New World Economic Order  

by Dennis Small

The leaders of the BRICS nations (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa), met on July 16 in Fortaleza, Brazil for the VI BRICS Summit, joined the next day, by the heads of state of South America in the capital city Brasilia. These nations adopted a project premised on rejecting the current casino financial system, and replacing it with one providing credit for high-technology development projects; on educating and training youth to meet the growth challenges of the future; on full respect for national sovereignty, banishing the imperial policy of regime change and wars; and on explicit promotion of the common good among nations— the Westphalian principle.
