ANALYSIS OF SOUTH AFRICA�S TRANSCONTINENTAL COOPERATION UNDER THE BRICS PLATFORM Author(s): Durokifa Anuoluwapo ,Ijeoma Edwin J. Ponte - Jan 2019 - Volume 75 - Issue 1 doi: 10.21506/j.ponte.2019.1.9 Abstract: The creation of alliances on the international scene has reflected a makeshift in the world economy. Amongst such alliances is the coming together of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa commonly known as BRICS. BRICS is considered as a giant initiative towards shifting the conventional norm in international economic and political cooperation to creating a new transcontinental platform towards these sectors in the world history. This article using secondary data analytically detailed the inclusion of South Africa in the BRIC�S�, the benefits and shortcomings. We propose that South Africa as a global player under BRICS is envisaged to open a new vista of opportunities including transnational gateways to Brazil, Russia, India and China with the attendant inflow of infrastructural and developmental investments, enriching educational exchanges and technology transfers. Also, South African membership will enhance the trade investment and expand sectors which the country holds in admiration; thus, increasing the standard profile of the country.
