Superpower India? When Foreign Policy does not Serve the National Interest - AIIA
India’s ambitions of becoming a superpower threaten more pressing domestic priorities. The funding of foreign policy has always entailed a necessary balancing act between domestic and foreign priorities.

As Asia rises despite significant development challenges, this dilemma has never been more pertinent.
Can Pakistan’s New Prime Minister Deliver His Promises? - Australian Institute of International Affairs
Imran Khan is now poised to become Pakistan’s new prime minister. But he’s likely to find that running a country is much more difficult than winning the vote as his party is still short of a clear parliamentary majority. Once a global cricket star, Imran Khan is now poised to become Pakistan’s new prime minister.
Reading Room: Smart Diplomacy - Australian Institute of International Affairs
The political, economic and security power play between China and India, arguably the two most critical Asian powers today, is a major theme of current global political analysis.

Reading Room: My Enemy’s Enemy - AIIA
One of the key lessons of Kautilya’s great manual of statecraft, the Arthashastra, is that the effective management of an adversary often involves allying with one’s enemy’s enemies. But as Avinash Paliwal’s rich and readable book shows, this is easier said than done.
The Importance of India's Remote Northeastern States - AIIA

Reading Room: Power Failure, The Political Odyssey of a Pakistani Woman
This is a powerful narrative, providing an insider’s perspective to events of relevance in Pakistan’s history and politics as well as the overarching worldview in traditional male-dominated societies. Power Failure: The Political Odyssey of a Pakistani Woman is an autobiography by Syeda Abida Hussain, and the title is a well-suited one. Hussain was the only child of a former Pakistani politician, coming from a well-known Indian political dynasty.

India's Republic Day: Modi at Midterm
On this day in 1950, the Indian constitution came into effect creating the world’s largest democracy. In 2017 there will be legislative elections in five of the mega-democracy’s most populous states and Narendra Modi’s enigmatic leadership will be under the spotlight. A good result for Modi’s Bharatiya Janata Party is critical.
