Moreover, far from coalescing into a united anti Western bloc, the emerging powers remain sharply divided. There are far more overlapping interests between the established and the emerging powers than the West versus the rest narrative suggests indeed, the rising powers often share as many interests with their Western counterparts as they do with each other.

Emerging powers have the potential to fill this need. The question is what China, India, Brazil, and others are prepared to do with their growing strength.

In today s global age, with the rise of emerging powers and the relative decline of the West, the only Europe that will be taken seriously is a Europe that can speak and be seen as one.

Only a unified, comprehensive approach can manage the forces driving momentous change in the Middle East, prevent outside powers rivalries from complicating the situation further, and ensure a peaceful outcome. With emerging regional powers increasingly challenging the capacity of the Security Council s permanent members to shape events in the Middle East, there is no time to waste.

Perhaps the most dangerous challenge is the prospect of emerging powers leaning increasingly toward autonomy, instead of alliance. China and India may not have been happy about Russia s actions in Ukraine, but none of the emerging economies could bring itself to vote against Russia in the United Nations General Assembly, even though the vote was ultimately meaningless.

Nor is there any plan on offer from other emerging powers, though in time India may show growing alarm about China s muscle flexing, and Brazil may question whether it has really been wise to cosset Venezuela and Cuba.

Once the current global crisis is over, nothing will ever be the same again. The West the United States and Europe are in relative decline, while the emerging Asian and Latin American powers will be among the winners.

In the next few months, Europe s debt crisis will most likely worsen. With emerging economies (including China) slowing, and with meaningful multilateral policy coordination remaining inadequate, protectionist pressures will mount as major trading powers compete for a stagnant pie.

Meanwhile, the emerging powers continue to lean toward bilateralism and are aligning themselves with other countries. Lack of agreement on the United Nations Security Council resolution against Iran does not help coordination and cooperation within the G 20, either.

It was a brave effort that came too soon. The Northern industrial world was not yet ready to recognize the new weight of the emerging powers and the need to strike a new balance between North and South, East and West.

This requires further development and deepening of strategic relations with emerging powers, such as China, India, and Brazil, as well as with regional organizations. This is precisely what Italy has been promoting during its current presidency of the G 8.

The big brands are some of the most important powers, powerful powers, in this country.

But an initiative like the Global Apollo program will succeed only if the world s emerging powers, such as China and India, throw their weight behind it. They will have a chance to do so at the G 20 summit in Turkey in November.

Today, however, the international community appears to be backsliding on its human rights commitments. The world s emerging powers lack any sense of urgency in addressing abuses, preferring the pursuit of narrower, short term interests to investing in long term peace and justice.

Israel s leaders seem intent on gaining time both tactically, by resisting the soft pressure of US President Barack Obama s administration, and strategically, by preparing the country for a new world in which emerging powers such as China play an increasingly important role.

A new judgment from the ICJ in this case would be helpful. It would re establish and modernize the norms of behavior that both the US and Europe would want all countries notably, emerging powers like China to respect in the future.

The world s richest countries (the G7) turned to the emerging powers within the G20 to help coordinate a response to the global financial slowdown. Difficult as it is for seven countries to agree on anything, imagine the challenge of building consensus among 20.

All of this data got Brazilian Foreign Minister Antonio de Aguiar Patriota s attention. On a panel entitled The Rising Powers and Global Governance, Patriota referred to the energy discussion and noted that the rising powers should remember that the established powers are not sinking powers.

By not taking responsibility, we allowed immigration to become the scapegoat for a host of other, unrelated problems. The enduring insecurity caused by the global economic crisis, Europe s existential political debates, and the rise of emerging powers is too often expressed in reactions against migrants.

All of them have it wrong. US dominance is clearly on the wane, but a multipolar order implies that several emerging powers hold competing views about how the world should be run, and that they are prepared to act to advance their global agendas.

Similarly, the US Congress should ratify the agreed changes to the governance of the IMF and the World Bank. By founding the AIIB and the New Development Bank, China and other emerging powers have signaled that they will not wait for their voices to be better heard.
