1 Security in South Asia: a regional perspective Implications for International Relations Theory. An International Conference organized by Cluster of Excellence, Asia and Europe in a Global Context, University of Heidelberg, South Asia Institute, Department of Political Science, University of Heidelberg And Centre for Contemporary India Research and Studies, Institute of International Relations, University of Warsaw 25 th & 26 th June Heidelberg India s arrival on the international stage is today universally acknowledged by major economies of the world, recognized in the global media and discussed widely amongst academics. However, apart from the numerous internal challenges that India faces, it is the region of South Asia which is set to be the biggest test of India s resilience and future potential. India has disputes over borders and resources with each of its neighbours. South Asia is also home to violent insurgencies, military coups as well as the theatre of an ongoing international battle against terror. As the largest in size and economy and combined with a record of democratic rule and order, India holds a particular responsibility for, as well as, a vital interest in promoting regional peace and prosperity. 1
2 This two-day conference seeks to (1) examine the notion of a South Asian region and (2) to ask whether a regional perspective contributes to the analysis of India s emergence, the intractability of the India-Pakistan conflict, the limits to and, opportunities for regional integration as well as Sino-Indian and US-Indian relations.

6 Abstracts India emerging power: implications for South Asia : In the last decade under different political dispensation India has steered its foreign policies in the management of its relations with the word s major power in an effective manner. India is unique today in that it enjoys strategic partnership with the two leading powers, namely the USA and Russia. The same in the case with its relationships with the EU countries, China and Japan. It is a measure of India s forward movement away from much hallowed but politically irrelevant Nehruvian policies of non-alignment that the major powers today feel comfortable and are encouradged to establish strategic partnership with India. The same cannot be said of India s foreign policies closer home in South Asia. Not that Indian diplomacy lacked vision or competence in formulating or crafting effective policies for the region, but that combination of external intrusive powers pressure on India and domestic political pressures of Indian politics have stymied India s foreign policies toward the countries of South Asia. State Capacity and South Asia s Insecurity Predicament : South Asia, which consists of eight states of different sizes and capabilities, is characterized by high levels of insecurity at interstate, intra-state, and human dimensions. Although most of them emerged as independent nations in the 1940s, the states in the region have not yet been able to settle their conflicts internal and external. The region has also not developed adequate institutional mechanisms and normative frameworks for solving its myriad of security challenges collectively. What explains this chronic insecurity of South Asia? I argue that South Asia s multifaceted insecurity can be explained largely due to two critical variables: the presence of weak states and weak cooperative interstate norms. State capacity acts both as an independent and an intervening variable in causing regional insecurity, while weak cooperative norms are largely intervening variables. What can be done to bring about greater regional security and cooperation? India and the USA : The US-India civilian nuclear energy cooperation has re-defined the nature of this bilateral relationship. India s ties with the US have been steadily strengthening since the end of the Cold War, with their interests converging on a range of issues. But the nuclear non-proliferation regime denying civilian nuclear technology to India, with its larger restrictive implications across the entire high technology spectrum, was a fundamental irritant in this relationship. The nuclear deal removed that irritant and transformed Indo-US partnership. The United States under President Obama remains committed to continuing President Bush's policy of aiding the rise of Indian power has 6
7 acknowledged that India is a responsible power that will increasingly become central to global governance. The Obama administration gave notice that it intended to contest those who were skeptical about the administration's intentions towards India. However, neither the US nor India are used to partnerships among equals and India remains too proud, too argumentative and too big a nation to reconcile as a junior partner to any state, including the US. How the two democracies adjust to this reality will shape the future of their relationship. South Asia in International Relations: Cultural dimension A notion of cultural security is inextricably connected with the issue of protection of cultural property. For the last few decades, both a growing awareness of necessity for preventing destruction, thefts or smuggling of cultural objects and calls for redress for cultural losses caused by conflicts and colonialism have been noticeable in an international discourse. It resulted in significant developments of international and domestic laws aimed at protecting cultural property and it also influenced museums practice. The evolution of contemporary approach towards handling cultural property, in particular affects countries with significant heritage resources and colonial past. It makes a challenge for states like India to adopt strategies for protection of cultural property within a nexus of internal and external relations. Thus, it is worth considering the peculiarity and effectiveness of protection of Indian cultural heritage and to give thought to legal grounds for the return of art treasures from the UK to India. To depict the complexity of the issue, the discussion will be illustrated with cases of successful retrieval of stolen sacred objects, as well as pending post-colonial claims recently addressed by the Indian government to the leading museums in the UK. South Asia in International Relations: Social dimension The aim of the paper is to study the position of South Asia in international relations from the social dimension. The stated hypothesis is that South Asia is not only a passive receiver of solutions and projects how to improve social conditions, but we can find the concepts and projects that were created locally in the region, and then even spread over the world. Therefore, South Asia has a chance to be recognized as the region actively and creatively involved in finding solutions for problems aimed to be solved in the Millennium Development Goals. New Indian Foreign and Security Policy : The end of the Cold War and the collapse of the Soviet Union altered the balance of power in international relations. For India, the end of the Cold War meant a new strategic situation. In these new circumstances, New Delhi, just as other states of the region, redefined its interests and began searching for suitable strategies and ways to implement them. India, however, did not intend to stop defending its interests in disputes with neighbours, did not give up on creating a security zone in South Asia, or 7
8 playing the role of a regional and future global power. But India would like to achieve by methods in Indian foreign policy. India, aware of the restraints as well as of the new internal and external circumstances, in 1989 started carrying out a new internal and foreign policy. The more recent features of the Indian vision include: regionalism, moving away from rhetoric and moralising in politics towards pragmatism, increasing appreciation of military force in international relations, and establishing closer relations with major powers, new policy toward South Asia (from Hard Power to Soft Power), new strategic thinking and putting stress on economic development. Key words of India foreign policy is: responsibility, economic development and stabilization. Two symbols of India s new approach to international relations are its nuclear policy (nuclear tests in 1998, adoption of nuclear strategy in 2003) and the development of strategic partnership with the United States. Non-alignment has been replaced by a so-called new non-alignment. It focuses on economic issues in relations with African and Asian states and organizing the states of the South in a dialogue with the North. It should be stated that the Indian vision at the dawn of the 21st century is of a nature that is both continuous and variable. However, despite the processes and phenomena taking place after 1989, the Indian vision of international order is a function of its long-term strategy. The aim of that strategy is to achieve global-power status in the 21st century. But what is important, India is status-quo Power. They prefer evolution, not revolution. About the speakers.
