“…Take the case of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), the Central Treaty Organization (CENTO), the South East Asia Treaty Organization (SEATO), etc. This alliance was formed to provide security to member states from outside aggression (Duffy, 1967). Whereas multi alignment is a strategy as explained by Dr. S. Jaishankar, the present External Affairs Minister said its aim is to engage as many international stakeholders and partners as possible based on India's own political, strategic and economic calculations.…”

This paper examines Indian foreign policy under Atal Bihari Vajpayee in terms of realistic pluralism. It argues that since the 1998 nuclear test, India has developed a slightly different style of realistic foreign policy as a means to achieve its core interests. It is characterized by an emphasis on engagement with contemporary challenges such as neoliberal globalization, terrorism, the issue of disarmament, coping with the changing international order, the decline of multilateral institutions, and new regionalism, etc. To deal with all these issues, India adopted realistic pluralism to accelerate India's economic development and security interests, as well as enhance its status as an emerging power in the international system by continuously promoting its cherished values. This paper explains how a party with its rightist ideology occupies power at a time when Congress fails to deliver people's aspirations. It analyses the key arguments that have been presented in this framework and the way Bajpayee put them into practice. It concludes with the assessment of Bajpayee strategies and future prospects that it will deliver for Indian foreign policy.

“…the USA and Britain) increased their presence in the region to support its despotic rulers in return for fighting the manifestations of Marxism and socialism. For example, the USA' and Britain's motivation for supporting the Central Treaty Organization (CENTO) (established in 1955) was getting better access to the region and tackling the progress of Communism in Iran, Iraq and Turkey (Duffy, 1967). Such presence was also because of their interests in the oil reserves of the Middle East (Louis, 1984).…”

Critics often associate West-centric knowledge hierarchies in marketing (as well as in business and management studies) with (neo)colonialism, academic journal ranking fetishism, resource scarcity in non-Western societies, and the domination of the English Language in the international scholarly landscape. I advance this debate by examining the role non-Western societies themselves have played in reinforcing the phenomenon. Using the Muslim Middle East as a context, I argue that the coupling of the institutions of state politics and religion during the 20th century has negatively influenced the development of social sciences. I show how unreflexive Islamic civilizational revivalism has paradoxically contributed to the reproduction of the same hegemonic discourse it intended to repudiate. These, I argue, are the outcomes of the institutional arrangements that Western colonial/imperial powers have left behind in subordinate societies. I conclude by inviting researchers in both Western and non-Western contexts to develop a sense of self-reflexivity, one that can help create more consciousness about how what they write can impact upon self and others.

“…Thus the US and other Western nations failed to their earlier commitments to protect the Pakistan"s sovereignty. Experienced with all these developments about the failure of alliance members to help militarily and politically (Duffy, 1967), Pakistan since 1966, refrained from participating in the SEATO foreign ministers conferences.…”

The paper seeks to analyze the developments between China and Pakistan since the end of Indo-Pakistan war of 1965 to 1971. After the signing of Pakistan"s boundary, air and trade agreements with China, the latter continued its support to Pakistan. Their bilateral relations reached to the climax of cordiality by the exchange official visits of both leaderships and support to each other"s key issues and interests. Pakistan changed its pro-West policy of casting vote in favor of Taiwan and against of China for membership in United Nations. Chinese assistance for Pakistan"s defense sector began and supported the Pakistan"s view regarding the disputed area of Kashmir. However it was Pakistan"s start of good relations with the Soviet Union which created a doubt in China"s mind after the Tashkent Conference. It was natural for China to express her surprise on the new bilateral relationship between Pakistan and Soviet Union and called it superpowers" conspiracy. The paper concludes that bilateralism in Pakistan"s foreign policy brought China and the US to normalization of relations where Pakistan played a bridge role between the two.
