A seismic power shift is reshaping the global economic landscape. As BRICS nations dramatically expand their coalition and challenge Western dominance, the future of American financial hegemony hangs in the balance.

This incisive analysis tracks how Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa—now joined by economic powerhouses including Saudi Arabia, Iran, and the UAE—are constructing an alternative global financial architecture designed to circumvent the U.S. dollar. With unprecedented access to the inner workings of this emerging bloc, the book reveals their ambitious strategy: new development banks, payment systems, local currency trading, and coordinated de-dollarization efforts that threaten to erode America's economic leverage.

Against this backdrop, President Trump's 2025 administration wages economic warfare through sanctions, tariffs, and diplomatic pressure—tactics that may inadvertently accelerate the dollar's decline. Meanwhile, dozens of nations across the Global South and Middle East gravitate toward the BRICS sphere, creating a new "Non-Aligned 2.0" movement that's transforming geopolitical alignments.

Drawing on comprehensive research, economic data, and analysis from leading global experts, this groundbreaking work examines:

  • The strategic motives driving each BRICS member and their newest allies
  • How BRICS Pay and other parallel financial systems aim to neutralize U.S. sanctions
  • The Trump administration's counter-offensive and its unintended consequences
  • The global implications of a fractured monetary order
  • Whether the dollar's reign is truly ending—or merely evolving

Essential reading for investors, policy experts, and anyone seeking to understand how the battle between BRICS and the West will determine the economic rules of the 21st century.
