China and India's look east policy: more of strategy than economic interest? / Hazarika, Obja Borah   Journal Article
Hazarika, Obja Borah Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract Look East policy was initiated in 1991, it marked a strategic shift in India's perspective of the world. It coincided with the beginning of our economic reform process and provided an opportunity for significantly enlarging our economic engagement. At the same time it also encouraged a renewal of linkages with our civilizationnal neighbors in South East and East Asia. India's look East policy was more than an economic imperative. It was a significant shift in India's vision of the world and her place in the emerging post-Cold war global scenario. In the years to come it will be our endeavour to strengthen political, physical and economic connectivity between India and East Asia and broaden the underpinnings of our quest for peace and prosperity.

Evolving dynamics of federalism and foreign policy in India: engagement of states in external affairs / Hazarika, Obja Borah   Journal Article
Hazarika, Obja Borah Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract Although, the central government in India has been constitutionally empowered to decide on foreign affairs, this article has attempted to portray that sub-national units have influenced and affected external engagements to a certain extent. The central government as well as foreign audiences have acknowledged the role of the states of India in external engagements and have often included them in discussions and negotiations relating to foreign affairs. Sub-national diplomacy has taken varied manifestations in India. First, states have embarked on economic diplomacy with foreign audiences. Secondly, states sharing an international border have influenced neighbourhood policy and thirdly, regional parties, which have served as coalition partners at the centre have often leveraged their status to exert pressure on the centre in certain foreign policy decisions. The centre, being the final authority on external affairs in India, must continue to conduct foreign policy with an aim to secure the national interest of the country as well as to ensure that the legitimate interests and concerns of the states are adequately accommodated.

Examining the relevance of Gandhi in the contemporary world / Hazarika, Obja Borah   Journal Article
Hazarika, Obja Borah Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract Gandhi's form of protest and life has been resisted and criticized by many in the past and present as impossible, his teachings have led to intense debate and controversies, and this is bound to continue into the future as well. However, amidst the debate and the discussion, Gandhi's teachings are not only kept alive but are constantly produced and re-produced by those seeking to understand Gandhi and apply Gandhi, much like the myth of Gandhi which had become the savior and beacon of hope for many in pre-independent India, preventing them from losing hope under the harsh conditions that had been set up by the erstwhile British colonial rule.

India-US relations under Modi and Obama: caveat riddled convergences / Hazarika, Obja Borah   Article
Hazarika, Obja Borah Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Notwithstanding these contentions, cooperative relations between India and the US have become the mainstay of their relations in the post-Cold War era and the Modi government seems keen to further bolster the ties. India hopes to get US support to emerge as an economically, technologically and militarily vibrant country and the US views India as a valued partner, which can further the American vision of a stable Asia. Steps taken by Modi and Obama, however incremental, are symptomatic of the leaders’ understanding that India and the US have stakes in shaping the Indo-Pacific region in particular and the world in general in terms favourable to them, which will be best achieved through cooperation between the two nations.

Locating Northeast in India’s neighbourhood policy: transnational solutions to the problems of a periphery / Patgiri, Rubul ; Hazarika, Obja Borah   Journal Article
Hazarika, Obja Borah Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract India’s neighbourhood policy seems to be devoid of any strategy to integrate national interests with the concerns of border regions like Northeast India. India’s security-centric approach prevented a cooperative relationship from emerging with its neighbours, while a deeper and intense engagement with them would have benefitted India and helped solve many of the problems that Northeast India is facing today. However, the recent move by India under the Act East Policy to cultivate a much closer relationship with its eastern neighbours is full of possibilities to make India’s neighbourhood policy more accommodative and sensitive towards the needs of Northeast India. In the light of this, the proposed article intends to examine the nature of India’s neighbourhood policy, to assess its implications for the Northeast and finally, to examine whether the recent transnational engagements can initiate development of the Northeast by relieving it from its peripheral and landlocked status.

Look (Act) east policy and Northeast India: reimagining the space through institutional, physical and social connectivity / Patgiri, Rubul; Hazarika, Obja Borah   Journal Article
Hazarika, Obja Borah Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract The underdevelopment of Northeast India is quite often explained in terms of economic isolation primarily on account of its geographical peripherality. To address this challenge, a new imagination, through the Look (Act) East Policy has been proposed. This approach, makes India’s Northeast the centre of a unified economic, physical and social space through its integration with the trans-border neighbouring regions. In this article, an attempt has been made to examine the logic of developing an ‘extended Northeast’ and how it has been sought to be realized. The article argues that the actualization of this proposed integrated space is ridden with serious difficulties and the internal fragmentation of Northeast India and the exceptional rules and administrative arrangement that are in place in the region along with the geopolitical compulsion of India may act as significant barriers in this regard. And most importantly there are apprehensions that the proposed integrated space may lead to the appropriation of resources of the Northeast by the corporate houses without benefiting the people of the region.
