The world is in tumult as a result of sharp differences over ideology and governance systems, territorial conflicts, military aggression, and the weaponization of trade and technology. A gridlocked multilateral order has adversely impacted peace and stability, post-pandemic economic recovery, climate action and green transitions, among other major priorities before the global community.

Nonetheless, there is a ray of hope. The churn in the Indo-Pacific, the pushback against regional hegemonism, and the thrust on resilient supply chains and unfettered developmental finance are bringing together like-minded partners to secure a better future.

India, in recent decades, has demonstrated a capacity and willingness to play a bigger role on the global stage. India’s successful G20 presidency drew upon its civilizational ethos of
Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam (the world is one family) to forge consensus. Its ethical and values-based approach provides an alternative future for humanity.

Today, India has emerged as the fastest-growing large economy in the world. The goal of making India a developed nation—Viksit Bharat—by 2047 is within grasp. Surakshit Bharat (a secure and militarily resilient India) and an Atmanirbhar Bharat (a self-reliant India) are integral to India’s emergence as a beacon of progress in an era of instability.

Against the backdrop of global chaos, there are green shoots of stability and progress as well. Sujan Chinoy has meticulously documented the unfolding geostrategic events over the last few years and presents to his readers
Global Tumult: India As A Pole Star. He delves into India’s foreign and defence policies, and its achievements, from his vantage point as head of India’s largest defence and security think-tank.

Sujan Chinoy is Director General of Manohar Parrikar Institute for Defence Studies and Analyses (MP-IDSA), New Delhi. He was the Chair of the Think20 engagement group for India’s G20 Presidency. A career diplomat for nearly four decades between 1981 and 2018, he held key diplomatic assignments, including as Ambassador to Japan and Mexico. He is a specialist on China, East Asia and politico-military and security issues. He led the Indian side in the India-China Expert Group of Diplomatic and Military Officials (1996–2000) that negotiated confidence-building measures on the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in the context of the boundary dispute.

On assignment to the National Security Council Secretariat of India, he anchored internal and external security issues. His diverse foreign service career also included postings in Hong Kong, Beijing, Shanghai, Sydney, Riyadh and the Indian Mission to the United Nations in New York. He speaks fluent Mandarin and is conversant in German, Japanese and Spanish, among others. He is the author of the book
World Upside Down: India Recalibrates Its Geopolitics (2023). He has also co-edited a wide range of titles including India’s Approach to West Asia: Trends, Challenges and Possibilities (2024), Ukraine War: Military Perspectives and Strategic Reflections (2024), India’s Policy Towards West Asia: The Modi Era (2024), Modi: Shaping a Global Order in Flux (2023), 1971 India–Pakistan War: 50 Years Later (2022), and Asia between Multipolarism and Multipolarity (2020).
