Many newly emerging powers have just recently adopted a democratic regime, while others are stillĀ  governed by hard autocracies. Within this context, their civil societies have different channels to express their preferences towards the new world order under formation and their expectations concerning how their states plan to be part of it. This paper will discuss how emerging regional powers behave in this changing world, the possibilities and limits imposed by civil society pressure, or even inaction. The authors wish to address how these systemic changes impact on the channels through which civil society movements voice their platforms for their country international role, considering the degree of democratic institutional consolidation as an intervening variable. As case studies, this theoretical debate will be applied to contemporary Brazil and India.</p>}, number={10}, journal={AUSTRAL: Brazilian Journal of Strategy & International Relations}, author={Secches, Daniela Vieira and Aires, Maria Cristina Andrade}, year={2022}, month={Nov.} }
