Summary/Abstract |
Religion and Politics may intersect at many levels.Religion has been in focus of several profound changes in international relations. Religion had an effect on the development of the State and International law. Huntington’s thesis warns us that the ‘Clash of Civilizations’ will be the battle lines of the future power struggle. Islamic fundamentalism and the rise of Radical Islam pose ominous challenge to the so called Western liberal values.

Summary/Abstract |
This research paper does not desist in indicating spiritual notions in changing nature of China-North Korea relations within the context of self-help measures and self-realisation. In general, their relations have been described differently as ‘close as lips’ but they have been as ‘close as leech!’ simultaneously in particular which became more apparent from less economic and political required exchanges between them amidst COVID-19 (Novel Coronavirus) crisis situations evident basically from no people-to-people communication increasing the enmity in their relations with exceptions in diplomatic domain motivated by Dr. Sunyat Sen’s diplomatic style.

Summary/Abstract |
Hindutva’s impact on the trajectory of India’s foreign and security policy is important to consider. However, it should first be noted that while understanding intent is undoubtedly significant, the objective impact on foreign policy will not necessarily be pronounced. Regardless of which case is most accurate – at least in the short term – the tangible results are likely to be similar.

Summary/Abstract |
Islam is resilient enough to serve as a vehicle of challenge or dissent against governing regimes that are equally proficient at claiming legitimacy via the use of Islamic symbolism40. As a result, Islam functions as “a religious-political ideology in the hands of both the state and the opposition, with its attendant symbols and ideas taking their origins from the scriptures and acting as a religiouspolitical doctrine.

Summary/Abstract |
The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is driven by several factors: ethnic, national, historical, and religious. This brief essay focuses on the religious dimension of the conflict, which both historical and recent events suggest lies at its core. That much is almost a truism. What is less often appreciated, however, is how much religion impacts the identity of actors implicated in this conflict, the practical issues at stake, and the relevant policies and attitudes — even of non-religious participants on both sides. It follows that religion must also be part of any real solution to this tragic and protracted conflict, in ways a concluding paragraph will very briefly outline.

Summary/Abstract |
The Arab Nations usually present the Arab-Israeli conflict as a religious conflict of the Moslems against the so called “infidel Jews”. Thus, the Arab countries at war with Israel use Islamic religion as an ideology to mobilize the Arab as well as non-Arab Moslem nations against Israel. If we like to understand the role of religion in the Arab-Israeli conflict, at the first instance, it is necessary at the outset to understand the entire process of expansion of the Muslim empire in recent history and its ideology and goals

Summary/Abstract |
People professing different faiths could hardly coexist in peace in a society as religious differences are instrumental in arousing conflict among people most of whom are ignorant about the core of religion. Usually during crises group identities can be shaped to differentiate a group from other groups and escalate conflict. Twenty first century witnessed transformational changes in the world except identities based on religion which became a potential factor for aspiring leaders with radical orientations to garner support for their views.

Summary/Abstract |
Religion is one of the distinct factors in a field of foreign policy areas thus, identifying such elements is crucial for the ability of our diplomats and foreign-policy makers around the world. In the public sphere, the moral and religious discourse has lost its standing. It is a fact that at the center of the debate of the secular American public sphere, moral arguments were frequently disguised as prudential arguments as if there was embarrassment about straightforward moral arguments.

Summary/Abstract |
In a fast changing VUCA (Volatile-Uncertain- Complex-Ambiguous) world, international relationships remain in a state of flux. As such the changes in the global order determine foreign policies that are more a tool of strategic and economic interests rather than anything else. Thus religion which is a more stable concept may not play a determining role in formulation of foreign policy. A foreign policy is some kind of a vision document that helps a country find its place in the comity of nations.

Summary/Abstract |
The history of human civilization bears testimony to the contradictory syncretic and disintegrating forces of religion. Both state and non-state actors resort to religion in advancing their cause, policies and articulating their interests. As state and nonstate actors attempt to mobilize support by appealing to common religious and civilizational identities, the conflicts occur at the macro and micro levels among adjacent groups along the civilizational fault lines over the control of territory or other demands, resulting in violent manifestations of revolution, terrorism, secessionist movements, ethnic cleansing and even full-scale war.

Summary/Abstract |
The analysis of interface between religion and international politics did not receive much attention. Yet we all agree that religion plays an important role in society, which includes political society or state. The international relations are just the outcome of the interface between politically organized societies.

Summary/Abstract |
The theoretical discourse in International Relations in the past century has been largely dominated by a secular thought process with a heavy emphasis on political ideology and human nature. Religion has been restricted to play a part of cultural influence on political ideology or to serve as a cause for some ideologies to develop. This is changing, however, as the 21st century is seeing a resurgence of religion in the international system.

Summary/Abstract |
Water is of utmost importance for survival of human life. It has religious importance too. Conservation of water as natural resource needs an effective management. Unfortunately, due to expansion of urban infrastructure, water quality and quantity are depleted, particularly in tropics. India has shown progressive decrease in per year water availability (1486 cubic meter per year in 2021), thereby, leaning towards water stressed conditions in the present scenario.

Summary/Abstract |
Every society has a reflection of its religious practices. India has the oldest continuing religion in the world. The cultural diversity within the Indian society in terms of inter-regional, inter-caste, inter- tribe, inter-sector community differences are so great. But, despite these differences, the unity of Indian society is unique in itself. “Unity in diversity” is one of the striking features of Indian society. Since ancient times only religion is one of the important elements of India’s soft power. Other than Hinduism, India is the birthplace of many other religions.
