The COVID-19 pandemic is posing hitherto the toughest challenge for humanity in the 21st century. Already with more than 63 million people in 218 countries around the world have infected by the pervasive conflagration of the contagion, the disease has unleashed system-altering effects. Obviously, it was a new situation for all of us when we saw not only differential response in different regions and on the part of different nation-states to cope with this humongous crisis but also the distribution of power was undergoing a sea change that required a new analysis. In the case of India we witnessed her excellent outreach in terms of medical diplomacy and HADR missions, her resilience to Chinese belligerence and her altruistic concern for the members of the SAARC, to mention a few. Put in this background the focus of this book is on emerging contours of Indian foreign policy in new normal from virtual diplomacy to the trends of greater geopolitical tensions and global power shift at large.

Focusing on politics and society in India, this book explores new areas enmeshed in the complex social, economic and political processes in the country. Linking the structural characteristics with the broader sociological context, the book emphasizes the strong influence of sociological issues on politics, such as social milieu shaping and the articulation of the political in day-to-day events. Political events are connected with the ever-changing social, economic and political processes in order to provide an analytical framework to explain ‘peculiarities’ of Indian politics. Bidyut Chakrabarty argues that three major ideological influences of colonialism, nationalism and democracy have provided the foundational values of Indian politics. Structured thematically and chronologically, this work is a useful resource for students of political science, sociology and South Asian studies.

This report is intended to stimulate thinking about the rapid and vast geopolitical changes characterizing the world today and possible global trajectories over the next 15 years. As with the NIC's previous Global Trends reports, we do not seek to predict the future, which would be an impossible feat, but instead provide a framework for thinking about possible futures and their implications. In-depth research, detailed modeling and a variety of analytical tools drawn from public, private and academic sources were employed in the production of Global Trends 2030. NIC leadership engaged with experts in nearly 20 countries, from think tanks, banks, government offices and business groups, to solicit reviews of the report.
