DESCRIPTION:
Economic students, policymakers, diplomats, investors, and business leaders should all read this book—not least because the rise of the BRICs is already turning so many Western assumptions upside down and will reshape the globe for decades to come.”—GILLIAN TETT, US MANAGING EDITOR, FINANCIAL TIMES “A brilliant and insightful analysis of the dynamic forces that are changing our world and the lives of millions of people. “When Jim O’Neill first coined ‘BRIC’ he redefined how investors and Western business leaders see the world. His new book makes it clear that growth markets wil
"Road Map to a New World Order" according to Serge J. Van Steenkiste. Jim O'Neill first reminds his audience how he selected the original four developing economies which are widely known under the acronym BRIC, i.e., Brazil, Russia, India, and China. In the Chapter "BRIC by BRIC," Mr. O'Neill gives a nice summary of the key milestones that each of the four economies has achieved since he coined the acronym in 2001. To his credit, the author usually does not hesitate to deal with the shortcomings which still afflict each of these economies, despit. OLD AND ERRONEOUS THESIS THAT IS NOT WORTH BUYING Sanford I try to buy every book by Portfolio and most do so well, I feel no need to add a review. So I feel bad reviewing their book for the first time, and that too negatively but this fits the category of books I review: over-hyped or erroneous theories by over-paid or erroneous authors.Jim O'Neill was surely the first person to coin the term BRIC but it is hardly a reason for a victory lap. Much of the criticism about it has already been made on the web, that Turkey and Vietnam grew. Globalization For Toddlers Reluctant Reviewer An astonishing book. Astonishing for its lack of depth and insight. Early on the author states "on a basic level I often find it amusing that it (the BRIC thesis) is considered so profound. Four big populations becoming more productive and engaging with the rest of the world in a way they hadn't previously: if they carried on doing the same, they were going to be big, plain and simple." I should have stopped reading at that point. All of the author's thinking is based on simple
He is the chairman of the charity SHINE. He created the "BRIC" term in 2001. He lives in London. Jim O'Neill is the chairman of Goldman Sachs Asset Management. . Before that he was the firm's head of Global Economics, Commodities and Strategy Research
While established economic powers may see the rise of the BRICs as a threat, international trade benefits us all over the long term. He explains how the g20 can adjust to better incorporate the BRICs and to better reflect the balance of the global economy.Finally, O'Neill makes the counterintuitive claim that good things can quite often come from crises. The BRIC analysis permanently changed the world of global investing, and its accuracy has stood the test of time.The Growth Map features O'Neill's personal account of the BRIC phenomenon, how it has evolved, and where those four key nations currently stand after a turbulent decade. He and his team made a startling prediction: Four developing nations- Brazil, Russia, India, and China (the BRICs)-would overtake the six largest Western economies within forty years. Likewise, the recent financial crisis revealed deep problems in our economic systems, problems we now have the opportunity to fix.A work of astute a
