Once upon a time the mere mention of BRIC – Brazil, Russia, India and China – would send most politicians, economists and the rest of the chattering classes into a destructive tailspin of criticism as they attempted to compare, analyse, excuse and then justify their own particular country’s inadequate economic performance. Not any more.
