There are few available conceptualizations of the term "emerging power". Therefore,

there is no standard or agreed method to decide which states are emerging powers.
However a fundamental characteristic of an emerging power is that it is also an

emerging economy, being that economic development is necessary and preliminary to
political and military emergence

***
The BRICS are often cited as being emerging powers, but at varying stages of
development and of varying degrees of potential. For example, Russia, which was once a
superpower, is now re-emerging in some aspects of state power following the fall of the

Soviet Union. China and India are emerging as potential superpowers, while Brazil is
emerging as a possible great power.

***
The term emerging power is often used to delineate the following countries:

Brazil, China, EU (supranational union), India, Mexico, Russia "
