A Mixed Methods Exploration of Young Women’s Agency and Mental Health during Covid-19 in Low-Income Communities in Mumbai, India
Pandemic stress was difficult for low-income AGYW in Mumbai. Mitigating programs for COVID-19 control helped address acute needs and enable capabilities. Exploring similar themes among a broader population of youth can help design strategies and opportunities for young people in low-income communities during health emergencies
A lost opportunity of a grand bargain
Ukraine is existential to Russia, but peripheral to American interests. The “escalation dominance” advantage is with Moscow, and no amount of military aid or economic coercion, short of an actual war, will deter Moscow, given the asymmetry of interests and differing threat perceptions. American public opinion remains firmly opposed to risking a potential great power war. That said, a Ukraine—if it exists as a state after the war—at peace with its…
Russian conservatism
Is Russia a conservative superpower? Glenn Diesen's new book is the second contribution in this nascent field of literature, following Paul Robinson's on the same subject (Russian conservatism, Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press, 2019). There is no one unified theory of conservatism as a political framework, and the concept is not used much for analytical purposes, especially in political science and International Relations (IR). Diesen divides…
Nonsuicidal self-injury and identity formation in Indian clinical and nonclinical samples
Background: Nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) is being increasingly identified as an important emerging mental health issue in the West. Yet, NSSI has not been adequately studied in clinical and nonclinical contexts in countries like India. Aim: The aim of this study was to compare different features of NSSI between clinical and nonclinical samples in India. We also explored if the strength of the association between NSSI and disturbances in identit…
Non-suicidal self-injury and its association with identity formation in India and Belgium
The aim of the present study was to compare different features of Non-Suicidal Self-Injury (NSSI) in India and Belgium. We also explored whether the strength of the association between NSSI and disturbances in identity formation-a risk factor that can increase vulnerability to NSSI-was similar in young adults from India and Belgium. Data regarding NSSI and identity formation were collected from 182 young adults in India (56% females, mean age = 2…
Age of onset of non-suicidal self-injury in Dutch-speaking adolescents and emerging adults
After the Enlightenment
The history of realism as a western IR discipline is vague. Realism as a theory traces its roots to Thucydides, Hobbes and Machiavelli, but realism as a discipline only started to develop in the years between the two most catastrophic and global wars of human history, which brought into question every assumption about state behaviour and war and peace. It gained momentum in the immediate postwar world, with Morgenthau channelling his inner Machia…
The Second World Wars
Of the thousands of works on the Second World War, Victor Davis Hanson's new book attempts to provide a historical view of the conflict from the perspective of a classicist. Hanson is not a military historian. Nevertheless, this is one of the first books that attempts a thematic analysis of the most destructive Great Power conflict in human history. It is encyclopaedic in trivia and a great point of reference for the world war in numbers. Hanson …
More on war
In 2014, around the time Russia annexed Crimea, John Kerry loftily reminded the world that nineteenth-century forms of diplomacy and statecraft were obsolete and Great Powers no longer pursued war and territorial annexation. Since then, however, international relations has not been too kind to idealists. In a world where war still remains the ultimate form of statecraft and the reality of geopolitics, the study of war remains one of the most impo…
Black wind, white snow
What influences Russian foreign policy and grand strategy is a pressing question for western policy-makers. There are broadly three different lines of argument: Russian foreign policy is shaped by either geostrategic interests, economics or ideas—or a combination of these factors. Among these various explanations, one is recently back in vogue: the geopolitical theory of Eurasianism. Eurasianism is a complicated, pseudo-scientific and esoteric th…

Even though realism as a theory is nowhere mentioned, one cannot help but notice the recurring themes and…
