Post-Western World - Anything to Fear?

Is the unipolar world that ended the American century giving away to the next hegemonic power like a China or is it going to usher in a multi-polar world? And if its going to be a multi-polar world, which countries are waiting in the wings and what do they stand for? Today we speak to the author of “Post-Western World: How Emerging Powers Are Remaking Global Order” who looks at countries in the BRICS grouping and beyond.  

Presented by: Sharaad Kuttan
