Ai, Power, and Ethical Governance in Brics+ the Global South

Emerging technologies are transforming global governance, particularly as BRICS+ nations and countries in the Global South play a more influential role in an increasingly multipolar world. Artificial intelligence (AI) is not only shaping economic and security strategies but also redefining core principles such as digital sovereignty, transparency, and ethics. At the same time, AI offers new opportunities to strengthen public sector accountability and improve governance outcomes, while also introducing risks related to surveillance, data misuse, and bias. These developments highlight the need for more inclusive, context-sensitive, and ethically grounded approaches to governing technology in a rapidly evolving global landscape. AI, Power, and Ethical Governance in BRICS+ and the Global South critically examines how emerging economies are engaging with AI as both a driver of development and a site of geopolitical contestation. Through the analysis of case studies, policy initiatives, and collaborative platforms, this book offers a comprehensive perspective on how BRICS+ nations and the broader Global South are shaping a more equitable and pluralistic global digital order. Covering topics such as next generation national power, driven information disorder, and south-south collaboration, this book is an excellent academic resource for graduate and doctoral students, technologists, development practitioners, multilateral institutions, civil society organizations, and more.
