The conference launched the IDSA National Strategy Project (INSP), an initiative to provide a forum for interdisciplinary dialogue among specialists in international studies, economists, strategic experts and other groups with an interest in India’s strategic affairs. The key mission of the one-year long project was to strengthen the tools of strategic analysis through a comprehensive interdisciplinary approach instead of relying primarily on regional studies, bilateral relations and military issues. The National Strategy Project Team has had the opportunity interact with a large number of intellectuals from varied backgrounds in the past two years. These interactions provided us with an opportunity to identify deep drivers of change both at the domestic and international level. Five key themes emerged from these interactions and the papers in this volume. First, we are witnessing a dramatic shift in the locus of global power with the relative decline of the United States and the spectacular rise of China. The rise of China and India will alter the geopolitical landscape and the nature of the global system in the coming two decades. We are in a time of great geopolitical transformation. Our assumptions, theories, paradigms need to be revaluated in light of the technological, social, economic and political developments in the

Vijay Sarthi Principal, S. P. College, Pulgoan. ABSTRACT : The idea and implementation of Human Rights dates back to 3rd Century Before Christ in the history of human civilization when Aristotle and his master Plato seriously attempted for the security of common man. Of course Aristotle desired to prevent the atrocities and sins of the powerful on the weaker sections of the society through the fear of Religion. But when the suppressors and oppressors started using Religion itself as an instrument against to the people, the purpose and insight of Aristotle was defeated. Hence the rebellion of Martin Luther of Germany and Nietzsche against the hierarchy of Popes, Arch Bishops of church. However the importance of Human Rights was remarkably realized by mankind after the First World War and the Second World War when the military powers started committing excesses against the innocent people and the prisoners of war of the respective countries. KEYWORDS : history of human civilization , Human Rights , natural law stemming. INTRODUCTION : The aftermath of the two world wars and the emergence of the French Revolution the terrifying fear of violence committed and the bloodshed motivated the . i n emerging democratic countries for the formation of the Human Rights. It is this sense that Human Rights are considered as important and vital for the survival of mankind on the Earth. The Concept, Scope and meaning of Human Rights: The actual origin and basis of the concept of human rights can be summed up as the law of the land to protect the common man.

  • Root Causes of Terrorism: Myths, Reality and Ways Forward
    Root Causes of Terrorism Addressing the causes of a problem is often more effective than trying to fight its symptoms and effects. In Root Causes of Terrorism, a team of international experts analyses the possibilities and limitations of preventing and reducing terrorism by addressing the factors that give rise to it and sustain it. The questions raised include: • What are the main circumstances that provide preconditions for the emergence of various types of terrorism? • What are the typical precipitants that trigger terrorist campaigns? • To what extent is it possible to reduce the problem of terrorism by influencing these causes and circumstances? • Should we address those factors that sustain terrorist campaigns rather than root causes? Tore Bjørgo is Senior Research Fellow at the Norwegian Institute of International Affairs (NUPI), and Research Director and Professor of Police Science at the Norwe- gian Police University College.
