It is very evident that much of the scholarly work currently done in the field of defence, human resources, strategic and development studies converges on issues which impact international relations both in policy formulation and its implementation through bilateral or multilateral arrangements.

Issues such as Energy, Environment, Disaster Management, Technology, Food, Agriculture, Poverty, Health, Refugees, Migration, Trade, Political Formations among others, are now increasingly influencing global decision-making. The Osmania Universiy Centre for International Programmes-OUCIP-had organized an international conference to reflect on these issues.

The present volume is an edited collection of the papers presented at the conference. Divided into nine parts, the essays deal with India’s reach, role and responsibility as a soft power, her relations with immediate neighbours as well as the big powers in the decades ahead.
