Panel-1 State of the Studies in Political Science

Political Science as the study of politics has travelled a long way since its inception as a branch of
knowledge. In its quest for knowledge about different dimensions of politics, it has faced several
methodological and theoretical challenges. How to study Political Science and how it can be made more
relevant in making political life democratic at global as well as at local level is the cardinal concern of this
discipline. It is no more merely the study of political institutions and processes rather the focus now has
shifted towards non-political factors that impinge upon political processes. So from the study of state
and government, various new tendencies arising out of socio economic and cultural domain have
captured the attention of political scientists in the 21
st
century. Further, the challenges unleashed by
globalization have given a new theoretical orientation to this discipline. It requires serious scholarly
investigation with a view to discern patterns in the facts and processes that cause control or affect
these patterns in the 21
st
century practical world. How the knowledge gained through investigation and
interpretation of new issues such as poverty, hunger, extrication, disasters, displacement, migration,
environmental degradation, inequality and future role of the state etc can be made useful for the
society is a formidable challenge before the scholars of Political Science .

Panel-2 Political Thought and Theory in India: Lessons from
the Past
The knowledge of Political Science is largely based on western thought and theory whereas the
vast repository of knowledge in ancient Indian political thought is still not thoroughly investigated.
Recent researches in the sphere of political thought and theory in India reveal the fact that academia
has rendered little contribution to this area. In the past, more western political thinkers and theories
have been the choicest area of research whereas untapped resources of ancient Indian polity and ideas
expressed by the Indian political thinkers need to be utilized for a better and wider understanding of
Indian viewpoint of governance rights, justice, liberty, and sphere of state action. There is immense
2

potential in ancient Indian political thinking to provide a fresh interpretation of concepts and thoughts
and theories of Political Science. Ancient Indian texts are replete with abundant knowledge of statecraft,
diplomacy and governance. How different streams of Indian political thought and theories can be
scientifically useful in sharpening our traditional understanding of Political Science is a new scholarly
challenge for the scholars of Political Thought and Theory in the contemporary period.

Panel-3 The future of State in Globalized World
Globalization has posed a new challenge before the existence of state as the institution-free
trade in the borderless world tends to create a global state. It has led to decline in the sovereignty and
importance of nation state. Cultural and economic globalization seems to have shaken the very
foundation of the state as a sovereign independent entity. In the new political order, sovereign nation-
states are criss-crossed underlined by transnational actors. So, what is the future of the nation-state in
the globalized world, what is the future of welfare state etc are some of the major concerns of practical
inquiry in the contemporary period.

Panel- 4 Discourses on Gender
Gender is one of the most discussed issues in the contemporary discourses of Political Science
and other Social Sciences. It refers to the asymmetrical social constructs of Masculinity and Feminity as
opposed to apparent biological male-female differences. Feminists argue that historically the
boundaries of gender and state have excluded women from domestic and international practical
domain. Patriarchal structures and gendered symbolism within and beyond states are often neglected
by the scholars leading to establish a gendered notion of politics. The discourse initiated by Simon de
Berouire, Betty Friedman, and Clon Stenheru inspired various types of feminist movement across the
world. Gender discourses generate new theoretical insight on power relationship in the domain of
Politics. In fact, once Gender as a category of Social Science research was accepted, the gendered power
relations transformed the entire debate over issues of politics in the developing countries in particular.
In fact, gender discourses have direct linkages with social-cultural and economic trajectory of a nation-
state: so the social, cultural, economic and political dynamics of society impinge upon Gender
Discourses. Scholars are expected to focus upon these dimensions of Gender Discourses.

Panel- 5 Politics of Democratic Decentralization in India
Decentralization is the symbol of participatory government. A system is truly democratic when it
ensures participation of the most marginalized segment of the society. It is considered to be an
indispensable precondition of social, economic and political development, stability and prosperity. The
litmus test of decentralization lies in its role towards the empowerment of women, dalits, and other
marginalized groups. Experience shows that Panchayati Raj institutions are functioning amidst a number
of pulls and pressures. Democratic decentralization in India is faced with numerous challenges in the
form of inadequate funding, illiteracy, caste-ridden rural socio-economic background and finally, lack of
political will at upper level to share power with lower strata of government and lack of infrastructure.
In this kind of predicament, how to ensure commitment to decentralization as a political value and how
to make the institution of Panchayati Raj as self-governing and self-sustaining offer a very wide area for
scholarly investigation.

Panel -6 Politics of Violent and Non-Violent Movements

In recent years the politics of violence and non-violence has attracted the attention of Political
Scientists toward both violent and non-violent movements having appeared in different corners of the
world. Recently, in Syria and Libya violent protest movements and Anna Hazares non-violent protest
movement in India are evidence of the fact that both methods are applied in politics. Which technique is
expedient for dealing with conflict or bringing about social change certainly requires serious and in-
depth investigation. Why in certain situations violence appears to be a superior technique for conflict
resolution and why non-violence is often more difficult to visualize are some of the pertinent issues that
need to be addressed in the study of political actions.

Panel-7 Politics and Democratic Governance in India
About sixty six years practice of democratic governance in India unravels many significant facts
that speak volume of both potentials and pitfalls of the governance. Several laws enacted by the
government during the past years in the sphere of empowerment of women, decentralization of
government, public interest litigation, periodic elections and role of the election commission in
preventing rigging in the elections prove democratic credentials while on the other hand, corruption,
criminalization of politics, rise of sectarian interests etc are the pitfalls of Indian democracy. Indian
governments inability to impartially deliver services, roll out benefits or adjudicate dispute and
institutional failure to redress the grievance of the people needs to be seriously addressed. There is a
dire need of social audit of democratic governance in India. How to make the governance accountable
14

needs an in-depth diagnosis of the problems, and calls for prescribing remedies for the ills of the
democratic system in India.

Panel -8 Politics of Non-State Activism

In the past two decades non-state activities have grown manifold. This dimension was earlier
largely ignored by political analysts. Now in the era of globalization there is a network of activists that
coalesce and operate across national borders through their targets might differ. Transnational activism
has a significant impact on human rights, environmental politics refugees issues, trade practices and
women freedom from violence. The non-state activism syndrome breaks new ground for thematic and
empirical research in Political Science. How far is it expedient that the rise of non-state actors challenge
the traditional notion of power and sovereignty? How state actors negotiate with non-state actors ?
How non-state actors influence the policies? These are some of the major dimensions of scholarly
deliberations.

countries ,especially, China, India and ASEAN, bloc, emergence of new power blocs like, WTO, BIRC and
BRIC, existence of the sole surviving super power, i.e. the USA, globalization and growing tentacles of
terrorism characterized the period. How India indentifies a role in this new world order? How India is
going to redefine her goals and objectives in new world order? Her claim for a permanent seat in the UN
Security Council are a few important dimensions of scholarly analyses in the field of International

Panel -10 Contours of Modern Political Economy
Political Economy has been a very significant realm of enquiry, spread of globalization has
reaffirmed the importance of political economy as in the altered international scenario after the demise
of cold war owing to disintegration of the formed Soviet Union, it was held by the western political
analysts that the new scenario testifies the triumph of capitalism and liberal democratic principles. But,
very soon economic recession in the United States and Western Europe and the rise of East Asian
economies raised the issue of efficacious management of political economy. So, the paradoxes of
liberalism and capitalism call for analyzing the contours of political economy in the 21
st
century. To
understand the contours of political economy we need to understand the nature of geo-economy and
unravel the complexity of the new geo-economy.

Panel -11 Political Systems and Democracy
The issue of democracy as a political system and democracy as a principle of political system
provide a wide range of discourses with regard to its viability in the context of developing countries. In
this context, nature and functions of representative government, citizen participation in political
process, basic human freedom of citizens, transparency of political acts and processes, basic human
freedom of citizens, transparency of political acts and processes, role of civil society are important areas
of scholarly deliberations. Is the western model of democratic political system functional in Afro-Asian
and Latin American countries? What are the bases of socio-cultural dynamics of political system of these
countries? These are some burning issues for investigation.

countries. It urgently calls for understanding the contours of new administrative culture and challenges
before good governance.

Panel -13 Perspectives on State Politics in India

The study of state politics in India is now in the focus of inquiry. New challenges arising from
states in the form of demands for creating new states, more central assistance and lack of majority to
25

one party at the centre during the last three general elections have enhanced the role of state leaders
in the national politics, regional political parties have increased their bargaining position vis-s-vis the
centre and are in a position to dictate terms to the centre. Earlier locomotive of change had come from
the centre but after 1967, scenario started changing. Now, state model of development is being
discussed as a viable alternative model of development. Further liberalization, privatization, and
globalization have lessened the dependence of states on the Centre. Now states are free to sign MOU
with foreign companies and invite Foreign Direct Investment directly. So, the focus of the study has now
shifted from the dominant national perspective to state level. The changing scenario calls for deeper
political inquiry and analysis, and evolving a comparative perspective on state politics.

Panel -14 Emerging Nature of International Organization

International organizations occupy unique place in International life as they are mechanism for
transnational co-operation and collative action. The end of cold war, weakening of the state and
growing role of NGOs, acceleration in the pace of global economic integration and information
27

revolution have brought about significant change in the international institution. These changes have
affected international organization in many ways. They have to adjust themselves in accordance with
the changing international melieu. Besides UN other regional groupings such as SAARC, ASEAN,
OAU,OAS, OECD,BRICS,G-10, G-20, G-7, G-22,etc have become active in different ways to address
various practical, economic and environment challenges in the 21
st
century. So the changing
international Scenario has to a great extent influenced the nature of function of the International
organization in the 21
st
century.
