Source<\/strong>– The post is based on the article \u201cIndia and the new global order\u201d <\/strong>published in The Indian Express <\/strong>on 16th January 2023<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Relevance<\/strong>– India and Global south in changing world order<\/p>\n

News<\/strong>– The article explains the importance of the recently held Global South summit for India. It also explains the possibility and challenges for India leadership of Global South.<\/p>\n

What is the importance of the Global South summit that was recently convened by India?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The forum is an important effort by India to make global governance<\/strong> work for the developing nations. Their concerns do not get sufficient attention in international forums.<\/p>\n

The forum has provided valuable inputs<\/strong> from the Global South<\/strong>. These could facilitate successful conclusion of G20 summit in Delhi<\/p>\n

The forum is helpful for India in reconnecting with a global group of nations<\/strong>. This group has not been a priority for the Indian foreign policy establishment<\/strong> since the end of the Cold War<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Over the last three decades, Indian diplomacy <\/strong>has been focused on reordering its great power relations, bringing stability to the neighborhood and developing regional institutions in the extended neighborhood<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

What is the case for India’s leadership of the global south?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

120 odd nations attended the meeting. It underlines the willingness of Global South<\/strong> to support Indian leadership<\/strong> on addressing the global challenges that have impacted many developing countries.<\/p>\n

The crises produced by the Covid-19 pandemic and the Russian war in Ukraine have had a devastating and disproportionate impact<\/strong> on the Global South.<\/p>\n

The international context today is not amenable to major global initiatives<\/strong>. Multilateralism<\/strong> is now in danger due to growing military tensions among the great powers<\/strong>. There has been a breakdown of the world trading rules and the weaponization of global finance<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The idea of India as leader of the developing world appears to have gained much currency in Delhi.<\/p>\n

What are difficulties for India in representing the interests of the global south?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

India’s own past experience with the Non-Aligned Movement and the Group-77<\/strong> developing nations points to the real difficulty of uniting the Global South.<\/p>\n

There are deep economic differentiation and sharp political divisions<\/strong> among the developing nations.<\/p>\n

India has its own enduring developmental challenges<\/strong>, despite its impressive aggregate GDP and growing economic, industrial, and technological capabilities.<\/p>\n

What is the way forward for India?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

India can\u2019t simply be self-centred<\/strong>. It cannot abandon its long-standing equities in the Global South<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

India needs to contribute in more significant ways to modernising and democratising the global order<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

There is a need for careful balancing between nationalism and internationalism<\/strong>. A practical sense of what is feasible in today\u2019s world, and a well-defined crafted hierarchy of Indian priorities<\/strong> on the global stage is required.<\/p>\n
