Ontological security of landlocked states and China’s Belt and Road Initiative
India and the Gulf: Theoretical Perspectives and Policy Shifts
India's foreign policy in the Gulf has been a confounding situation for years. From the oil boom of the 1970s until Manmohan Singh took office in 2004, the density of India's interactions with the region, in the form of migration, financial remittances, or trade, surpassed by multiple orders of magnitude India's diplomatic and strategic ties with the Gulf states. The volume aims to examine the subject from a variety of theoretical lenses and meth…
Navigating the Af-Pak arena: India-US relations under the Trump administration
The gradual elevation of India-US relations over the past few decades highlights a significant convergence of interests, a similarity in dominant political discourse and a converging geopolitical environment that has aided this elevation. This article explores engagements between India and the US within the Af-Pak arena, reflected in policy discourse and public pronouncements in both countries. It does so through a critical discourse analysis and…
The BJP Government and the Kashmiri Pandits: Managing the Politics of Displacement in India
After the Kashmiri Pandits were driven from their homes by a violent insurgency in the 1990s, the issue of their displacement and potential rehabilitation has featured prominently in mainstream Indian political discourse, and particularly in the messaging of the Hindu-nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). The BJP subsequently became the leading political force in India and as the governing party has had ample opportunity to respond to the Pan…
The United Nations Military Observer Group in India and Pakistan: Analysis of perceptions in India and Pakistan
In Kashmir, the worst fallout from the current state of India and Pakistan’s confrontations at the Line of Control (LoC) is the total disregard for the 2003 ceasefire agreement. While political parties, governments and armed forces on both sides of the conflict are key actors in the current dynamics, also stationed on the LoC are military observers as part of the United Nations Military Observer Group in India and Pakistan (UNMOGIP), first instit…
Geopolitics of landlocked states in South Asia: A comparative analysis of Afghanistan and Nepal
Foreign policies of landlocked states have been a topic of interest for scholarship on international relations but the landlocked states in South Asia have received negligible attention. Due to their geographical realities, South Asian landlocked states that include Afghanistan, Bhutan and Nepal, depend on their neighbours for trade with the outside world. A range of factors place landlocked states in an unequal relationship with their coastal ne…
India's Pakistan Policy: How Think Tanks Are Shaping Foreign Relations
Conflict or Cooperation? India and Pakistan in Shanghai Cooperation Organisation
South Asia is one of the least integrated regions in the world, with persistent India–Pakistan rivalry acting as a major stumbling block to regional cooperation through the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC). Nonetheless, both India and Pakistan continue to experiment with multilateral arrangements and both became members of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) in 2017. While it is too early to predict the impact of t…
Peacebuilding think tanks, Indian foreign policy and the Kashmir conflict
Foreign policy making in India is typically viewed as highly centralised and dominated by the Prime Minister’s Office and bureaucracy. Yet in 2004, the Congress-Party-led United Progressive Alliance government launched a Composite Dialogue with Pakistan which included a place for Indian think tanks in the Kashmir dispute. We suggest that as India liberalised its economy amidst domestic political upheaval, think tanks were given greater access to …
The India-Iran-Pakistan Triad: Comprehending the Correlation of Geo-economics and Geopolitics
Historically, India’s policy on Iran has been a balancing act between securing its interests as a counterweight to Pakistan, and ensuring its continued partnership with the US and other regional players. Yet confusion in India’s Iran policy became evident when Iran’s nuclear program began to draw international attention in the 1990s. More recently, India has attempted to reach out to Iran, reigniting trade relations and initiating new plans. Grow…
Grass Roots Politics in India: A Case Study of the Kangra Valley
THE INDIAN POLITICAL system is based upon the country's numerous villages. The fact that India has established parliamentary democracy with adult franchise as a basic principal and that 80.1% of its population lives in the countryside means that the rural sections of the electorate hold the key to government at all levels. The interplay of political forces at the grass roots level must obviously have a close bearing on the over-all politics of th…
