The geopolitical realities that underpinned the post-war multilateral system have also changed markedly with the rise of multiplicity of new actors, both state and non-state. This crisis of multilateralism comes at a time when in addition to traditional challenges to international peace and security, a variety of new challenges related to global public health, climate change, transnational terrorism, cyber security and uncertainty related to the future of economic globalisation require more rather than less multilateral cooperation. This volume, with contributions from eminent Indian scholars and foreign policy practitioners who presented at a conference at the Indian Council of World Affairs in December 2020, delves into various aspects of India's contribution to multilateralism in the United Nations; various facets of India's engagement with international financial/trading institutions; India's approach to climate negotiations; and deliberates on how India as a leading and responsible power can contribute to reformed multilateralism to build lasting peace, security and development in the twenty-first century.| Item type | Current location | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
