DESCRIPTION:The BRIC thesis holds that four countries—Brasil\, Russi
 a\, India\, and China—are set to surpass the GDP of the G7 in 2035 a
 nd could become the four most dominant economies in 2050.  Not only do
  these four countries represent 25% of the world's land coverage\, 40%
  of the world's population\, and boast a combined $15T USD GDP\, but t
 hey are also among the largest and fastest-growing emerging markets.  
 How will trends in information technology\, especially in Free / Open 
 Source Software\, influence the future of the BRIC countries (and othe
 r fast-growing emerging economies) and their roles in the world econom
 y?
