| Summary/Abstract |
The Indian policy regime is infamous for subordinating national concerns to the interests of some self-seeking pressure groups. Worse, a number of self-proclaimed experts readily join hands with egocentric lobbies to spread disinformation. Invariably, truth becomes the first casualty. False examples, taken out of context, are cited in support of their flawed contentions. The case of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in defence is symptomatic of the detrimental malaise that afflicts the Indian polity and the intelligentsia.

| Summary/Abstract |
As the Afghan war is far from over, India must take a long-term view of developments in its turbulent north-western neighbourhood. Based on certain assumptions about the likely course of the Afghan war, it is often argued that India may soon have to revisit its policies and priorities in Afghanistan. However, given the constraints and prevailing uncertainty, India may not be in a position to bring about any radical shift in its Afghan policy, at least not in the short-term. The Afghan situation is extremely fragile at the moment in view of the fragmented nature of its polity, overlapping transitions, and strong external dimensions to the conflict, all of which do have a direct impact on India's security and, at the same time, restrict its options.

| Summary/Abstract |
This article examines the socio-historical construction of Indian policy and legislation as the processes set out to making the 'Indian' population legible to its rulers during the pre- and post-confederation periods in Upper Canada. I aim to demonstrate how Indian policy and legislation materialised into concrete actions that attempted to assimilate, civilise, and protect the 'Indians' by deploying different instruments of control or governmentalities, such as the residential school and reserve system. Nonetheless, resistance and political positioning of Indigenous people is present, and post-confederation Indian policymaking in Canada is a much more negotiated process.

| Summary/Abstract |
It is not often that one comes across academic opinions from Taiwan on issues local and global. This special issue of the China Report titled 'Taiwanese Engagement with the Indo-Pacific' details perceptions of leading scholars from reputed universities and think-tanks in Taiwan on strategic and security issues faced by the island. The discourse on Taiwan's need for security in a constantly changing world is an intensive and engaging arena that throws up voluble insights into the pace, depth, variety and intensity of Cross-Strait relations, engagement with the United States, policy on South China Sea disputes, contestations of external policy in the internal political sphere and relations with other stakeholders of the international system including India.
