Glad to share my paper published in @GSQ_Journal on British colonial thought concerning India. May be of interest to people working on global histories of international thought covering sovereignty, geopolitics, and maximalist territorial projects.

Looking forwarding to speaking this evening @nmims_india's School of Law on how India's view of international order can be understood in terms of ideas, institutions and power/polarity.

Check out Professor @atulm01, Head @irgssnioe, latest article for @the_hindu.
Prof. Mishra analyses the enduring relevance of Gandhi's political thinking for India's public imagination, under the light of contemporary debates.

Putting Gandhi's re-emergence in India's public imagination into perspective. His utility to democratic churn is greater than his emphasis on physical cleanliness and his problematic views on caste and race. In today's @the_hindu

P4M has one of its roots in Mark Carney's proposal, made at his Davos speech, for a multilateral order woven together by the middle powers. An @IndiasWorld_mag piece I wrote sometime ago analysed that proposal. May of be interest:

Speaking at a place I deeply love, sharing the platform with scholars I deeply admire. At the IR Department at Jadavpur University, tomorrow.
Enjoyed this chat on the upcoming BRICS summit with Abhishek Anand of Asian Dispatch.

Vulgar headlight flashing by SUV drivers, especially on expressways, made worse by white LED headlights. And you can't do a thing about it. This is an instance of what has gone wrong with our public culture.

Why is the Indo-Pacific struggling to become a cohesive region?
In our Aug'26 issue, @atulm01 offers three explanations: it is vast, excludes China, and depends heavily on powers with unequal stakes in the region.
Looking at the EU, ASEAN & GCC, where institutions, rules and credible commitments sustain the institutions, Mishra offers a way forward for Indo-Pacific stability.

Lucknow Digital Library has a surprisingly great and freely accessible collection of books. You just gotta login and so many scanned copies of rare books will be available to you.

From the postmodern, the postcolonial, the linguistic and the historical to the non-western, the global, the decolonial and the relational -- IR academia has taken so many 'turns' that we have lost our way.

A rewarding end to the NASP fellowship! Thanks to @TakshashilaInst for an intellectually enriching experience, and to Prof @atulm01 for his valuable guidance throughout the fellowship.
We're excited to announce the award winners of the 2025-26 cohort of the Network for Advanced Study of Pakistan (NASP) Fellowship. This cohort reflects a rising generation of scholars and analysts dedicated to creating high-quality, cross-disciplinary scholarship on Pakistan, spanning policy, strategy, economics, security, and society.
Congratulations to all the Fellows! ✨
Excellent paper by two ace scholars on the issue, and a moment of deep symbolic significance for Indian IR. For Indian scholars who train in the field by reading IntSec pieces, it turns a drawbridge into a paved pathway. Congratulations, Rohan and Yogesh, great service!
Why do nuclear dominoes not fall? The common wisdom holds that each new proliferator goads its rivals into following suit, but they rarely do. @the_nuclearyogi and I argue that this gap between expectation and reality cannot be explained by the cost of nuclear pursuit alone. 1/6

In a brief comment in the Correspondence section of the latest International Security @IntSecHarvard, I question both John Mearsheimer’s evidence for claiming that Russia returned to great power status “around 2017” and his claim that the international system is multipolar.
“Correspondence: Paradigms and Power.” Stacie Goddard, Paul MacDonald, Daniel Nexon, and @RRajagopalanJNU respond to Mearsheimer’s Spring 2025 article.

Really enjoyed writing this short piece on theorizing the interplay of business, geopolitics and foreign policy. Happy to share copy, please dm.
Can existing IR theory explain what Indian businesses actually do in the world?
In this piece, @atulm01 examines how Realists, Liberals, and Marxists would interpret India's purchase of discounted Russian crude, sanctions on Nayara Energy, and U.S. pressure on New Delhi.
A thought-provoking look at the intersection of business, markets, and geopolitics.
