Abstract

ABSTRACT: This article aims to study South-South Cooperation by recognizing global inequalities and exploring how the region can potentially alter the balance of international power. The problem under analysis revolves around questioning how South-South Cooperation can promote justice and equality in the global system. To this end, a bibliographic and qualitative approach was employed, delving into theories on North-South Cooperation and its relationship with South-South Cooperation, with a focus on the BRICS and the Sino-African relationship, as they represent South-South Cooperation. The results indicated that, despite some limitations, South-South Cooperation has transformative potential in the international system and could replace the North-South relationship in the future. Therefore, investing in South-South Cooperation is crucial for a more equitable and sustainable world.

Keywords: Balance of power; international cooperation; international affairs.
