Summary/Abstract |
Since June 2014, the extremist terrorist group known as the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL or ISIS) has expanded quickly and seized significant territory in Iraq and Syria. It not only threatens the very existence of the Iraqi government, but also has changed the nature of the Syria conflict, and its influence is spilling over outside of the region.

Summary/Abstract |
India and Myanmar both have historical and cultural links since ancient times. Myanmar's criticality for India has been variously defined, mostly referring to the "shared historical, ethnic, cultural and religious ties." In real terms, both countries share a 1643 kilometre-long land border. A large population of Indian origin people, estimated to be in the range of 2.5 million, lives in Myanmar. Four of India's north-eastern states, Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Manipur and Mizoram, are geographically contiguous to Myanmar.

Summary/Abstract |
In the existing literature of Chinese foreign policy, China is often portrayed as a reluctant and suspicious participant in multilateral diplomacy, particularly in the domain of security multilateralism. As a staunch advocate of the Westphalia international system of nation-state and national sovereignty, China is more comfortable dealing with other nations bilaterally rather than multilaterally. By examining these new practices of multilateralism and related conceptual evolution in China's foreign policy in recent years, shifting from passive response to achieve participation and even initiation, multilateral diplomacy has increasingly become an integral part of Chinese foreign policy in general and regional diplomacy in particular. China no longer perceives security multilateralism as a taboo; rather, it has gradually recognized the legitimacy of the multilateral approach in resolving international and regional security issues, and it has actively explored new forms of multilateralism in security relations with other countries.

Summary/Abstract |
Gandhi's concept of democracy was not confined to western democratic thoughts. It had a two-fold objective of lifting both individual and the community to a higher level where each will work and think for other. He had passionately concerned about the people of the lowest strata of the society. He wanted complete overhauling of the political system. The government of the country should act to fulfil the expectations of the people must aware of the popular will. Otherwise it will fail to meet the challenge of democracy. Defining the nature of his revolutionary government Gandhi said: "It shall be the nature of the trusts of men at the seat of power shall bow out at their failure to redeem the pledge to the people. If the men at the seat of power, after their failure to fulfil the expectation of the people in general, stick to office, the latter shall have the moral obligation, to dislodge the former."

Summary/Abstract |
Central Asia has had its fair share of disputes between littoral states since its emergence from the former Soviet Union. Each state has subsequently sought to consolidate power in the region, using these disputes as leverage. Each incident that arises leads to new power struggles and fresh points of dispute between countries on topics such as economics, religion, politics and nationalist ideals. One important geopolitical consequence of the demise of the Soviet Union was the rise of an intense political and commercial competition for control of the vast energy resources of the newly independent and vulnerable states of the Caucasus and Central Asia.

Summary/Abstract |
Capitalism is a system of economic and social relations characterised by the dependence of the bulk of the population on the sale of their labour power for subsistence. Although wage labour and private ownership of the means of production have existed sporadically and in various forms over the millennia, capitalism is of relatively recent origin, making its first appearance in the English countryside some four to five hundred years ago.

Summary/Abstract |

Summary/Abstract |
India has multiple reasons for responding to climate change – it is highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, it is becoming more and more dependent on imported fossil fuels and it has the ability to take advantage of the economic opportunities and climate finance that is now available. It also places high importance on preserving ecosystems and its unique biodiversity.

Summary/Abstract |
India claims longstanding historical, cultural and civilizational links with Afghanistan. In recent times, India has increased its footprint in Afghanistan and has actively pursued reconstruction and development, capacity building, and training of Afghan security forces. Bilateral relations between the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan and the Republic of India have traditionally been strong and friendly. Whilst the Republic of India was the only South Asian country to recognise the Soviet-backed Democratic Republic of Afghanistan in the 1980s, its relations were diminished during the 1990s Afghan civil war and the Taliban government.

Summary/Abstract |
Maintaining good relations with neighbours is the first priority for any country. India has close historical, religious, economic, ethnic and linguistic relationships with all neighbouring states. Ideally, India would prefer a peaceful, prosperous neighbourhood responsive to its own needs and wishes. India's relations with her neighbours occupy a central place in India's foreign policy. India is ready to walk the extra mile to strengthen bridges of friendship and create new opportunities for the growth, security and well-being of neighbours. India's neighbours are Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, China, Maldives, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka. It shares either land or maritime borders with all of them.

Summary/Abstract |
India’s independence in 1947 from the British colonial rule and its subsequent division into two nations – India and Pakistan - has sowed the seeds of continuing conflict between the two countries since their independence. The partition of India was primarily based on the religious divide between the two communities – the Hindus and the Muslims.

Summary/Abstract |
The important lessons learnt from the trilateral negotiations on the IPI pipeline reflect variance in legal, institutional, economic and trade laws and practices prevalent in the three countries. The project highlights the complexities of cross border pipeline projects, ranging from a macro view in which geopolitical forces play a role to a micro view where cross-border technicalities and regulatory issue play a role and, ultimately, how these complexities influence the choices made by the parties involved. The IPI gas pipeline has thus suffered delays common to most other cross border pipelines.

Summary/Abstract |
Mahatma Gandhi was one of the most outstanding men that the 20th century has produced. He regarded himself primarily as an activist-theoretician where action and theory intertwined to produce a theoretical construct that defies strict categorization. He gave little importance to the physical aspect of the human being and it is for this reason that he rejected the modern western industrialized technological society because it gave too much importance to sensuality and to the body thereby losing self-restraint, desiring insatiable wants, too much of self-indulgence leading to a decline in spiritual and moral values.
