Emerging powers and south-south cooperation are beginning to alter the foundations of the international system and to challenge the traditional power structure within multilateral organizations. The recently established dialogue forum between Brazil, India and South Africa (IBSA) is part of this trend towards the establishment of a new global order.

Edited by Susanne Gratius, this Working Paper analyses the prospects and limits of the IBSA dialogue forum between India, Brazil and South Africa and the three countries' relations with the EU.

The three chapters of the Working Paper, written by several authors, concentrate on IBSA's identity, the status of power of India, Brazil and South Africa, their bilateral strategic partnerships with the EU and the advantages for closer relations between IBSA and the EU.
