Middle Powers Geostrategy by Xenia Wickett & John Walker - #FII7 Day 2
"Middle Powers Geostrategy" took place at the 7th Edition of the Future Investment Initiative on October 25th, 2023.
As the global south rises, Middle Power states are asserting their influence amidst a shifting world order once dominated by superpowers alone. The potential addition of 22 new member states to the BRICS bloc — which would account for 45% of the global economy and half the world’s population if completely added, per the Financial Times — underscores the growing impact of Middle Powers like Saudi Arabia, Mexico and South Africa in an increasingly multipolar landscape. How are ascendant Middle Powers writing their own geoeconomic strategies to shape the 21st century world?
