- Book Synopsis
- This book examines BRICS+ countries as a post-Cold War emerging response to the compelling consequences of unipolar order and the overbearing effects of non-military security issues such as internal security, public health security, disaster management, and the role of media. The book: Explores the BRICS+ countries' conception of internal security and its impact on the broader global security architecture in the post-Cold War dispensation. Critiques the substance and efficacy of BRICS+ countries' public health regimes and diplomacy in the context of pandemics and other health emergencies. Evaluates the multiple trajectories of natural and artificial disasters in the BRICS countries. Assesses the role of the fourth estate in shaping public discourse, such as peacebuilding in the BRICS+ countries, as well as the role of social media through themes such as digital diplomacy. The volume will be of great interest to scholars and researchers in international relations, public policy and administration, and media development.
