THE GLOBAL SOUTH AND THE FUTURE OF WORLD ORDER


In a restless, multipolar world order, South America’s great
powers — Brazil, Argentina, Colombia — are claiming a stronger
voice and more agency in global politics. Their strategic
position and their political alliances mean that international
arrangements need to be readjusted or entirely rethought. Their
stance on issues as diverse as Russia’s war on Ukraine and
Decarbonization are less and less aligned to the interests of the
USA or the EU and more open towards China, India, and Russia,
while the size of their economies, internal and external
migration, as well as organized crime, armed conflicts and
political instability make them a volatile and increasingly
crucial factor of the international order. How will South
America’s influence evolve, and which interests will South
American countries prioritize as the international order is
creaking under the strains of multiple crises?
