- The BRICs, US ‘Decline’ and Global Transformations drew heavily on country wide statistics, World Bank data on poverty, UNCTAD data on trade and capital flows, UNDP data on human development, and US government data on inward and outward capital flows, trade and current accounts. Collecting this data was a long, laborious process, and the question of what to include –and exclude - was time consuming, as was the process of obtaining permission to use this data. This however was crucial to the ‘unorthodox’ analysis of the book, one that questioned a number of narratives about US decline and China’s rise.
