Horn of Africa Emerging as a strategic pivot of the Indian Ocean Region: need for repackaging SAGAR 2.0 / Banerjee, Somen   Journal Article
Banerjee, Somen Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Since the dawn of the twenty-first century, the Horn of Africa has undergone significant change. Presence of extra-regional powers has transformed the region into a strategic pivot of the Indian Ocean. But fractured societies of the region are in acute need of sustainable peace. Curiously, India’s engagements with the Horn have been confined to peacekeeping operations and anti-piracy patrols. As a member of the United Nations Security Council in 2021 and 2022, India could do more. Against this backdrop, this article examines the salience of the Horn of Africa as a strategic pivot. It assesses the challenges and opportunities for engaging a region that is steeped in geopolitics but yearns for sustainable peace. It seeks to develop a framework for India’s engagement in the Horn of Africa by evaluating the complementarities between the United Nations agenda of sustaining-peace and India’s vision of Security and Growth for All in the Region.

United Nation’s Agenda of Sustainable Peace : Implications for SAGAR / Banerjee, Somen   Journal Article
Banerjee, Somen Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Two decades into the twentieth century, traditional interstate conflicts continue to persist. However, peace and security are no longer measured only in terms of conventional wars. Under-development in many parts of the globe manifests itself in crime, terrorism, and civil wars which, invariably, have a transnational character, and affect regional stability. In 2016, the United Nations Security Council and the General Assembly adopted concurrent resolutions on Sustainable Peace, recognising that development, peace, and security are firmly interlinked. In 2015, Prime Minister Modi enunciated India’s foreign policy vision of Security and Growth for all in the Region (SAGAR) that conflates security with development. This paper seeks to access the extent to which the United Nations has been able to deliver on its sustainable peace agenda. It examines the conceptual compatibility between sustainable peace and SAGAR. Finally, the essay argues that SAGAR not only provides a framework for maritime governance in the Indian Ocean but is also a strategy for sustainable peace with a global footprint.

Will the security architecture of the western Pacific change post-COVID 19? / Banerjee, Somen   Journal Article
Banerjee, Somen Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract The Indo-Pacific, combines a panoply of regions and blends multiple security architectures. Some regions are dominated by non-traditional security threats, while others are unstable and rife with security dilemma. Instability and disorder are most palpable in the maritime domain, especially in the geographical region of the western Pacific. From the beginning of 2020, China has intensified its assertiveness in the South China Sea, including the announcement of two administrative districts and transgressions by its survey ship Haiyang Dizhi 8. Some attribute these developments to the COVID-19 outbreak. Enhanced US posture in the region seems to have little effect on Chinese revanchism. This article assesses the spurt of developments in the South China Sea during the COVID-19 pandemic. It establishes the conceptual framework for analysing the change in the regional order. It evaluates the regional security architecture of the western Pacific and the efficacy of the putative order. The prospective change in the security order of the western Pacific and response is also examined.
