Soft Power: CURRENT AFFAIRS REVIEW: National Interest

Описание: As the 21st century dawned, India began to be widely regarded as the next superpower. This optimism stemmed not just from its huge strides in the economic and military build-up that it has taken post the LPG reforms but from its growing soft power as well. Historically, India has been replete with soft power right from ancient times. Post-independence, India's first foray into global affairs isn't through military adventurism but by building upon what it has learned from its ancient wisdom and freedom struggle. As a result, non-violence, tolerance, brotherhood and spirituality, peaceful coexistence, etc., have become the guiding spirit and bedrock of India's soft power. The halo of soft power that India projected during the cold-war era has garnered worldwide recognition for India. Even in the past decade, from undertaking mammoth disaster relief operations during the 2004 tsunami in the Indian Ocean to undertaking the world's largest civilian evacuation during operation Rahat, India has been relentlessly augmenting its soft power to complement its global and regional ambitions. An arguable amount of halo still remains, but obviously, much of it laid dormant in the last 70 years.
