Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject Economics - Finance, grade: 1,3, University of Applied Sciences Mainz, language: English, abstract: At the beginning of this seminar paper, a background of the G20 with a brief historical and technical explanation of the group will be given followed by a chapter on the emergence of the group several years after its formation. The groups’ distinctive summit diplomacy will be explained before examining more closely the G20 agenda and its topics and outcomes. A critical reflection on the G20 will subsequently be expounded before giving a conclusion on the principal results. In the wake of the financial crisis in 2008, the G20 has developed to a primary multilateral forum. The G20 comprising developing, emerging and developed member countries is reflecting the new dynamics in global politics. The constellation of membership gives the G20 a greater representativeness than other groups and organizations. Filling the governance gap during the financial crisis, the group has proven itself as successfully acting as crisis committee when managing the global financial and economic crisis. Integral characteristics of its working framework are the “summit diplomacy” and the agenda politic. Its summits as part of a new diplomacy aim to reach a consensus within an informal forum instead of forcing a binding agreement in a formal forum . The G20 agenda has broadened over the years of its existence. From focusing on financial regulation in the course of the financial crisis, the group widened its agenda ranging from economic growth, trade to climate change. The transformation process of turning from a crisis committee into a permanent steering committee has revealed several issues and critics the G20 has to confront with.

The world is in an era of great transformations. Globalization, transnational capitalism, September 11, the 2008 global financial crises, and the emergence of the ’second world’ in general and the BRICS in particular are characterized by a diffusion of power away from the traditional North Western powers and towards the global South. Such great transformations have reshaped the terrain and parameters of social, economic and political relations both at the national and the global levels and have exerted pressure on the exiting international order in terms of both opportunities and constraints. This new era also urges the need for re-conceptualizing the changing world order especially with regard to one of the core conceptual categories and analytical apparatus in the studies of IR and IPE - hegemony. The world will witness a new era of interdependent hegemony, in which both the existing ’First World’ and the emerging ’Second World’ are intertwined in a constant process of shaping and reshaping the international order in the nexus of national interest, regional orientation, common economic and political agenda, political alliance and potential conflicts. This collection juxtaposes, from different perspectives and approaches, the discussion on the political economy of the emerging world order with a focus on the rising powers.

The contributions in this compilation on the emergence of a new global order through BRICS serve to illustrate the complexities inherent in the creation of such a coalition - alternatively referred to as a 'grouping', 'association' or 'forum' - with each country differently situated geo-politically as well as ideologically and culturally, and in some instances even in conflict with one another in matters of regional peace and security. The fact that there are important commonalities of converging interests, amongst others, the status of emerging economic powers and the furtherance of South-South cooperation as well as reforming global governance, cannot and should not hide complexities and contradictions. These are clearly apparent both within and between the BRICS countries. These diversities are also clear from the varied perspectives of the chapter authors in this compilation, which is why we have assembled this collection relatively loosely as a means of expressing our intellectual and analytic convergences and divergences within and across BRICS. Each chapter contributor writes from a different discipline, country and regional perspective, and it is this diversity that enriches the debate and conversation. As such, there remains enormous room for debate on the subject matter of this book and the diverse contributions open up the parameters of the debate even further. The aim is to ensure that scholars, commentators and practitioners continue to engage critically with theory and practice related to global multilateralism, and BRICS in particular.

A distinctive feature of urbanization in the last 50 years is the expansion of urban populations and built development well beyond what was earlier conceived as the city limit, resulting in metropolitan areas. This is challenging the relevance of traditional municipal boundaries, and by extension, traditional governing structures and institutions. "Steering the Metropolis: Metropolitan Governance for Sustainable Urban Development,” encompasses the reflections of thought and practice leaders on the underlying premises for governing metropolitan space, sectoral adaptations of those premises, and dynamic applications in a wide variety of contexts. Those reflections are structured into three sections. Section 1 discusses the conceptual underpinnings of metropolitan governance, analyzing why political, technical, and administrative arrangements at this level of government are needed. Section 2 deepens the discussion by addressing specific sectoral themes of mobility, land use planning, environmental management, and economic production, as well as crosscutting topics of metropolitan governance finance, and monitoring and evaluation. Section 3 tests the concepts and their sectoral adaptations against the practice, with cases from Africa, America, Asia, and Europe.

The credit crunch has focused people’s attention to the fact that Democracy is not working as it was intended to – as a governance system that institutionalises power sharing between a country’s government and its people.The ‘people’ are being increasingly marginalised by career politicians and businessmen and women who have combined forces to create a plutopolitocracy that uses the power of the state to further their personal ambitions.Here, Dr Frederick M Tampoe traces how this change came about. He describes the rise of the plutopolitocracy, the huge influence that money and celebrity is playing in democratic politics and how, through its use, businesses are increasingly dominating political agendas. He looks at the major role played by the nations that are the strongest advocates of democracy and how they have succumbed to the temptation to manipulate national and global political systems and institutions to advance narrow political agendas, individual careers and the business interests of their sponsors in ‘big’ business. And he explores how the imposition of free market thinking on struggling nations has enriched global big business in developed nations at the cost of other nations and their people. Finally, he examines how the reassertion of human worth, integrity in public and business life, and a more neighbourly society with a reassertion of moral and ethical values would help the ‘demos’ reverse the current drift towards a world that is dominated by the plutopolitocracy.

This book aims to explore and contextualize G20 rising powers’ increasing role in international development from a comprehensive and multidimensional perspective. This book will scrutinize the G20 rising powers’ evolving role as international development actors around three research questions: 1) How do we contextualize and locate G20 rising powers as emerging actors in international development? 2) What are the main contributions, trends and limits of G20 rising powers in South-South Cooperation? 3) Does G20 rising powers’ active involvement in international development support their foreign policy objectives and challenge the international development order? Based on these three, interrelated research questions, this cluster of chapters is structured as follows: The first part, elaborated under the first research question, focuses on the historical development and current dynamics of (G20) rising powers’ evolving actorness in international development to assess their main motivations, ambitions and instruments. The second part examines the main contributions, trends and limits of G20 rising powers in South-South Cooperation. The third part delves into an assessment of the linkage between G20 rising powers’ active involvement in international development and their foreign policies.

"This Chaillot Paper focuses on the emergence of the G-20 and its role in forging global governance amidst the changing dynamics of multilateralism. The paper explores three key dimensions of the G-20: its origins and development, its role with respect to the development of multilateralism and the way in which both old and new key actors engage with this new forum. It also emphasises how the G-20 is clearly of central importance for the EU's aim to build an international order based on effective multilateralism."--Editor.

Which elements do the Arab Spring, the Indignados and Occupy Wall Street have in common? How do they differ? What do they share with social movements of the past? This book discusses the recent wave of global mobilisations from an unusual angle, explaining what aspects of protests spread from one country to another, how this happened, and why diffusion occurred in certain contexts but not in others. In doing this, the book casts light on the more general mechanisms of protest diffusion in contemporary societies, explaining how mobilisations travel from one country to another and, also, from past to present times. Bridging different fields of the social sciences, and covering a broad range of empirical cases, this book develops new theoretical perspectives.

This important report, Global Trends 2030-Alternative Worlds, released in 2012 by the U.S. National Intelligence Council, describes megatrends and potential game changers for the next decades. Among the megatrends, it analyzes: - increased individual empowerment - the diffusion of power among states and the ascent of a networked multi-polar world - a world's population growing to 8.3 billion people, of which sixty percent will live in urbanized areas, and surging cross-border migration - expanding demand for food, water, and energy It furthermore describes potential game changers, including: - a global economy that could thrive or collapse - increased global insecurity due to regional instability in the Middle East and South Asia - new technologies that could solve the problems caused by the megatrends - the possibility, but by no means the certainty, that the U.S. with new partners will reinvent the international system Students of trends, forward-looking entrepreneurs, academics, journalists and anyone eager for a glimpse into the next decades will find this essential reading.
