The idea about"BRICs"was invented by Goldman Sachs in November 2003,using initial letters from four countries Brazil, Russia, India and China which have good economic anticipation, formed the word"BRICs"."BRICs"conform to the trend of the times, choose strategic policy that suits national conditions, take the policy of mutual benefit and all-win with developed countries, and with above average economic growth and the attitude of great nations turn to world economic and political new forces.According to an report named"Dreaming with BRICs: The path to 2050"by Goldman Sachs, Brazil will surpass Italy in 2025,and France in 2031.Russia will surpass Britain in 2027,and Germany in 2028. India will surpass United States in 2050,China will do as well in 2028,and its total economic output will surpass United States 84% in 2050.After the Goldman Sachs prediction announced six years,"BRICs"contribute the half of world economic growth, The four country's economic weight accounted for half of the global economy. China's economic growth has been in double digits for more than four years in a row; India maintained a 6% -7% of the average growth rate, and up to 8.9 percent in 2007; Russian GDP maintained average annual growth rate of 7.8%, the relatively slower Brazil also reached 4.4%. As the largest emerging market in the world,"BRICs"provide a new driving force with total consumer market and development potential, maintaining a healthy development of world economy."BRICs"have different strategic choice of development and different political models, reflect the charm of "diversification of development models". In the economic sphere, China was called"Workshop", India was called"thought factory", Russia was called"gas station", Brazil was called"materials Library". The rise of"BRICs"provides new opportunities For other countries'development, and provides new driving force for world economic balanced growth. "BRICs" is becoming the world's new manufacturing center, the adjustment of the international division and the caused adjustment of the international industry structure would cause the regulation of the global trade structure and the finance structure. It is quite hard for dollar to dominate the world financial market, and the mostly used money will not be dollars. It can be said that "BRIC" and so on are overthrowing the world economic layout.When the economic strength of "BRICs" was improving in a high speed, the "BRICs", as the rising strength, was manifested during the change of the international layout. The "BRICs" are the non-western nations. They have their unique traditional culture thinking, and are developing in the way adapting to their own county, which had a good result. The "BRICs" together make up of the world main famufactory base and have powerful nuclear weapons. They have the strongest militory power in their own area. Russia has nuclear weapons which can destroy all the world. China is the member of the nuclear club. India has developed nuclear weapons and Brazil has the first nuclear enrichment center. The four countries try to gain more speak in the areas of international financial system, the development of technology, trading formula, climate change, international organization and human rights. Two countries of The "BRICs" have been the permanent members of the UN, and the other two are pursuing the permanent seats in UN.The "BRICs" occupy the pivotal position in Europe, East Asia, South Asia and Latin America, and they are important parts of the power center in the new global times. China, India, Brazil are rising in political and economic areas, and Russia is recovering, which create the condition for shaping a new multi-polar world formed of big powers. In the 21st century between the major powers need to establish new international relations and international mechanisms, need to consider how to make "competition" and "competition" relation turn to "responsible partnership", establish a "more realistic new international order in the 21st century", engage in a dialogue with countries around the world, promote diversity of international community and mutually beneficial relations between countries, promote the existing multilateral international political and economic reform. As emerging force that impacting global economy and geo-political order, the rise of"BRICs"represents the changing of the global forces balance. As Goldman Sachs said, the rise of "BRIC" " is likely to cause a chain reaction and the restructuring of international politics, and ultimately end the undisputed U.S. world hegemony." The diversification of driving force for economic growth will inevitably undermine the basis of hegemonism and unilateralism, promote international economic pattern of multi-polarization and democratization of international relations. The rise of the four countries may change the existing pattern of international politics, And fundamentally challenge the strategic position of United States and other Western countries in the world. A just and reasonable globalization and global governance will become the mainstream of the world, the interdependence relations among countries will strengthen, international cooperation will become the main theme of international relations, promote the development of multi-polar world pattern.The rise of "BRICs" will have a far-reaching historical significance of the changes to the world. Four countries rise with the gesture of great power, and in the form of groups coming out of the world stage, the developing process and political influence of"BRICs"attract attention from political research. The four countries'outstanding performance in world politics become an important factor in the topic about "the transfer of power". Their efforts to reform the western-led order, should cause our serious attention and an in-depth study. "BRICs" rise as a major force in the world, will promote world pattern move to the direction of multi-polarization.
