“金砖国家”对话机制及其在多极世界形成中的作用

BRICS' Dialogue Format and Its Role in Formation of Multipolarity

与另一对话机制——七国集团不同,金砖各国不仅代表了不同的社会经济模式,还代表了形态各异的文明。文明正是历史发展的基本行为主体,因为文明比其他社会行为主体存在时间更长,对世界历史进程的影响也更深远。时至今日,作为国际关系基础的仍旧是欧洲国家间的关系原则。但是同一文明条件下的关系模式难免局限性,而且,这也并非唯一可行的模式。欧洲大西洋主要优势—经济优势日益加深的危机为其他趋势打开了前景。"金砖国家"必须从经济团体转变为国际政治和跨文明联合体。

Unlike another dialogue format -- G7 -- BRICS countries represent not only different social and economic systems, but also different civilizations. Civilizations are the basic actors of history because they exist longer than other social subjects, and have a greater influence on the world history than any other historical entity. Until today the basis of the international relations was formed by principles of inter-European relations. But the model of relations within one civilization inevitably has its limitations. Moreover, it is not the only model possible. The growing threat to Euro-Atlantic＇ s main advantage -- economic superiority -- has opened prospects to other trends. BRICS will inevitably develop from an economic group into an internationally political and intercivilizational consortium.
