SELECT RESEARCH PROJECTS (Last 5 Years)
- Teaching, Research, and International Project (TRIP) Survey
Participation in the Teaching, Research, and International Project (TRIP) Survey, which is conducted by the College of William and Mary, USA. It attempts to describe and explain changes in the IR discipline and also explores the relationship between the academic and policy worlds. 2014.
Role: Project Leader of the Indian team at the Institute for Research on India and International Studies
(IRIIS), New Delhi, India.
- Pedagogical Practices: A Comparative Study of the Global North and the Global South
This is an individual project that seeks to document how students at Masters level are introduced to the disciplinary knowledge of International Relations discipline with a special focus on its theoretical approaches both in terms of the content of the syllabi and scholarly writings used for teaching such courses. The objective is to map out the best practices used by a sample of nearly 150 universities located in the Global North and the Global South and, based on its findings, devise teachers training workshops to transform the way IR is taught in India. 2014-2015.
Role: Project Leader & Contributor at IRIIS, New Delhi, India.
- Sustainability and International Relations
This project explores the relationship between sustainability and International Relations theory and practice because there are physical limits to the Earth’s planetary well-being, limits which directly and/or indirectly affects the well-being of human societies across borders. The idea is to build a discourse on international relations from the point of view of sustainability of the planetary boundaries. It’s a collaborative venture between Institute for Research on India and International Studies (IRIIS) and the Global Centre for the Study of Sustainable Futures and Spirituality. This project will result in the publication of a book entitled, Rethinking International Relations: Sustainability, Planetary Boundaries and our Global Future. 2014-2017.
Role: Project Coordinator at IRIIS, New Delhi, India.
- Re-working the ‘Knowledge Structures’ in International Relations: Indian Contributions
This project self-consciously seeks to step outside the ‘box’ of Western theoretical frameworks and develop an alternative toolkit of conceptual frameworks, narratives, methodologies and resources for ‘doing IR’ in fundamentally different ways. Drawing from the textual and everyday experiences of ‘lived IR’ in India, its long-term objective is to create an alternative trajectory for the Indian IR while simultaneously preparing building blocs for transforming the discipline of IR. 2014-2016.
Role: Project Leader & Contributor at IRIIS, New Delhi, India.
- The Role of Governance in the Resolution of Socio-economic and Political Conflicts in India and Europe
This project analysed the premises and operation of governance initiatives in conflict transformation processes in India and Europe through a combination of fieldwork, qualitative analysis and theory development. It carried out case studies encompassing recent governance practices in Bihar, Bosnia, Cyprus, Georgia, North East India and Kashmir, through collaboration between Indian and European research teams. The project wass spearheaded by PRIO (Peace Research Institute of Oslo) and funded by the European Union for a period of three years. 2011-2013.
Role: Project Leader in the Department of Political Science, University of Delhi, India.
- U-21 Collaborative Masters-level Course
This is a collaborative teaching program involving the University of Melbourne, Australia, University of Birmingham, UK and the Department of Political Science, University of Delhi as part of the global Universitas-21 network. The Masters-level coursework titled, ‘Security in a Globalised World: New and Emerging Challenges’ was co-designed and co-delivered for the first time, at the University of Delhi, India. January-February 2011. The theme for the 2012 Workshop was ‘Security and Development in South Asia’, and for the 2013 Workshop was ‘Traditional and New Security Challenges: South Asia in a Global Perspective.’ 2011-2013.
Role: Project Leader and Convener in the Department of Political Science, University of Delhi, India.
- A Perception Survey of Media Impact on the Kashmiri Youth
This project aimed at understanding the relative popularity and efficacy of various channels of information availed by the Kashmiri youth in order to assess the factors, which are influencing their mindsets. It included both the 'new' modes of communication such as web-based source including Facebook, Twitter and Youtube as well as 'old' like public discussions at the local Kandur (bakery shop) prayer meetings at the mohalla mosques and, 'conventional' modes such as TV, radio, newspapers and magazines. The purpose was to generate policy options for fostering a better interface between the government and the media on the Kashmir issue and cultivating spaces for critical debates on contemporary issues of socio-political and economic significance. 2011-2012.
Role: Project Leader at IRIIS, New Delhi, India.
- Exchange by Promoting Quality Education, Research and Training in South and South-East Asia (EXPERTS).
The EXPERTS aimed to establish an innovative framework for capacity development of junior faculty staff, undergraduates, postgraduates, and postdoc researchers through training and upgrading their skills in specified fields of study through a scheme of structured mobility. This consortium, funded by the European Union, comprised 20 partner universities, 7 European and 13 South and Southeast Asian (from Bangladesh, Bhutan, China, India, Indonesia, Nepal, Pakistan, the Philippines, Sri Lanka and Thailand) higher education institutions. 2010-2013.
Role: Project Leader and Key Coordinator on behalf of the Department of Political Science, University of Delhi, India.
- IR Textbook: A Global South Perspective
This is a collective endeavour led by Arlene B. Tickner (Universidad de Andes), Nizar Missari (Al Akhawayn University), and Lily Ling (The New School) and including several other scholars from Latin America, Europe, Africa, Asia and Europe to bring out a IR textbook from the perspective of the Global South. A contract with Routledge, USA has been signed for its publication, due in the year 2015.
Role: Contributor.
- World of International Relations Scholarship: Geo-Cultural Epistemologies
This project, led by Arlene B. Tickner, Universidad de Andes, Ole Weaver, University of Copenhagen and David Blaney, Macalester College, explored why, despite powerful allegations that the field of international relations is indifferent to scholarly practices and policy issues outside the West, few contributions from the non-core have been successful in gaining recognition as legitimate sources of IR knowledge. It objective was to explore non-core concepts and theories that speak to many of the discipline’s current concerns in order to identify potential footing for a post-hegemonic IR that is sensitive to the political and social implications of knowledge production in the field. 2008-Present.
Role: Contributor.
