China and the BRICS

On Wednesday, December 3, InfoCLACSO will be live on the YouTube channel and the Facebook and LinkedIn profiles.

SPECIAL PROGRAM FROM CHINA

The Latin American Council of Social Sciences participated in the World Socialism Forum and the International Forum on Chinese Modernization, two spaces where models of development, social justice and the changes that are going through this historical time are discussed.

In Beijing, Shanghai, and Hangzhou, CLACO.TV spoke with members of universities, research centers, publishing houses, media outlets, and international actors who are currently shaping the future of the Global South. The same idea emerged in each meeting: the world is changing, and the Global South is beginning to speak with its own voice. China, the BRICS, and new regional alliances demonstrate that we are no longer facing a unipolar world, but rather a contested order.
