Security Studies

India’s evolving role in regional and global security is shaped by complex dynamics. Experts in the Security Studies Program examine India’s position in this world order through informed analyses of its foreign and security policies, focusing on the relationship with China, the securitization of borders, and the geopolitics of the Indo-Pacific.

The war in Ukraine has cast a long shadow on the Indo-Pacific. Countries in the region are faced with new challenges as they reorient their foreign policy. What do the deepening Russia-China ties mean for the Indo-Pacific? How will the war in Ukraine impact alliances and partnerships in the region? How does the conflict influence India’s strategic priorities and its global aspirations?
 
We hosted Vijay Gokhale, C. Raja Mohan, Indrani Bagchi, and Ashley Townshend for a discussion on the emerging challenges for the Indo-Pacific. The talk was moderated by Shibani Mehta.
