Subash Chandra Bose Chair Professorship on
International Relations, SLGPP

The Subhas Chandra Bose Chair on International Relations, an initiative of the School of Law, Governance and Public, represents a pioneering initiative poised to redefine the discourse surrounding the dynamic complexities of 21st-century International Relations. Rooted firmly within the burgeoning landscape of Indian strategic culture, its mandate is to invigorate India’s rising trajectory in global affairs through the infusion of innovative ideas and acute analysis. With a keen focus on Asia as the definitive continent of this era, mirroring Europe’s influence in the 19th century and America’s dominance in the 20th, the Chair aims to articulate India’s perspective on emerging global priorities. By fostering collaboration among a diverse network of stakeholders, it endeavours to cultivate a distinct knowledge base founded on evidence-based research, laying the groundwork for India’s evolving role on the world stage. As a vanguard research platform, the Chair aspires to set and correct the agenda for International Relations in Asia. The Chair is driven by three overarching goals: to identify and champion high-impact interdisciplinary research, to equip advanced learners and researchers with expertise in key international relations domains, and to foster partnerships and a collaborative community dedicated to driving research and innovation forward.
