[Lecture] Shashi Tharoor: Pax Indica - India in the World of the 21st Century
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2016
- An expression like "Pax Indica" is often immediately, and seemingly naturally, misconstrued to mean world domination, as in the familiar "Pax Romana" or "Pax Britannica". What Dr Tharoor means by the term, however, is the critical role India has to play in what has become a cooperative networked system in our multi-polar world. The idea of "Pax Indica", is not about India as a future "world leader" or even as "the next superpower", which is a status assorted commentators claim it is heading irresistibly towards in the near future. Instead "Pax Indica", in his conception, is about India's role in shaping the emerging global "network", which is really what will define international relations and world politics in the 21st century. In this lecture he will explain what it means to be a rising economic and political power in the post Cold War age, where the architecture and landscape of the world are ever changing, and nation states like India must not only embrace such change but actively determine its future design and direction.

History will remember you as a rare individual of the twentieth century who stood for the pure democracy of India.
I missed Gandhi,nehru,vivekanada thank God u sent me when atleast Shashi Tharoor is alive.i could not miss his any speech.....u r true genius and my inspiration....
Don't even bring Vivekananda alongside this people please. I understand your emotions and I totally get you but Vivekananda is much beyond them. I know you are not comparing them but still taking the name of the great man with those filthy politicians is very saddening.
Modiji
I wish I had a teacher like him in my school days.
He is a great politician, orator, diplomat and writer.
His English is so eloquent and perfect.... I need dictionary whenever I listened to him.
He should be Indian prime minister.
..k.kk.m.n
An Israeli or Swiss system would elect him
Best pastime in locked down just listen to dr shashi tharor pleasing to ears
1.There is no escaping globalisation - Sometimes history can teach wrong lessons
2. Leaving with Contradictions
3. Jihad vs Macworld- Babur
4. Communication as a problem
5.amartya sen- multiple identity
6.old binaries of cold war- world wide web:non alignment to multiple alignment
Pax indica- difference between domestic and foreign is reducing day by day
7.india must play active role in reforming global institution
8. Mass media
9. You can make a difference
Interdependence Day
Prodigious Spoke Person With Great Rhetorical Sagacity and The Euphemism to Represent INDIA in International Community.
Perhaps this Civil Servant has Enriched the Respect for INDIAN CULTURE in the WORLD.
Excellent speech as usual from the Master !👏
It is most ecstatic to hear such a sagacious speech and quite impressed with his eloquence, brilliantly orating with his euphemism....
Forget Atif Aslam or Imagine Dragons , I wanna hear Mr Tharoor all day long.....
I also use to listen sashi throor sir..he is too good I wish I have husband like him
Shashi Tharoor for our PM indeed !! Much respect to you Sir !!
Great thought. But what are the chances ? Zip ! As long as we do not have direct democracy good people cannot be elected. Indian Prime Minister is "selected" by the politicians and not the people. There lies the one and only obstacle.
@@vijoyabraham6328 I agree partly with your statement . Congress will never let him lead and make him a PM candidate till rahul and priyanka are alive.
The later part of your statement i completely disagree with. Its like saying every PM in a democracy is "selected" not elected.... not true by any stretch of imagination either.
What is direct democracy anyway !!
@@sandeepsandhu4286 You maybe right but that does not mean that India has to follow the same mold that was set for them by the Britishers. Why can't they choose their own path. Isn't more democratic to elect the prime minister directly by the people who then can surround himself with qualified people to be ministers rather than incompetent and uneducated politicians. Look at the US. 2 prominent things worth mentioning : 1. President directly elected by the people (that includes the candidates elected by the people through primaries) 2. Separation of powers a) Executive branch b) Judicial branch and c) Legislative branch. One does not have power over the other. What do you think ?
@@vijoyabraham6328 I am not against the idea and am all for more power to people , however is that the answer ?Are people responsible enough with their votes ?
Change is good , and i am all for it. However why break a system that aint broken ? And changing systems ( democracy structures ) doesnt equal better governance or for that matter better democracy and accountability. There are equal.number of crooks found in either system . The more power you give to people ( especially in these social media days ) the more you open your country to external forces to be misused , in the name of the very people you advocate more power to.
There are both positives and negatives to giving more power to people ...why - because the system can be abused ? Look at the narrative being built around CAA which had NOTHING to do with any indian ,OR status of minorities which is a load of utter BS, based on fake news, propaganda , peddling and painting part of the story etc. I feel ( totally my opinion ) india is way too democratic . Introduction of a few communist principles to force people to follow the law wouldnt go astray.
What is needed is stricter laws , minimum qualifications , vetting clean intellegent people to enter politics etc ,.. that will have a direct outcome on democracy , instead of following a certain democratic structures.
In my opinion the present givernment is doing a fantastic job at both democracy and governance, that reflects our democratic system ... ( congress abused the system , BJP has used the same system to make our sovereignty includung giving rights to people stronger ) further emphasizing its not the system, but the people in the system that make all the difference.
Better if he becomes foreign minister
I wish someday he will be the prime minister of India, even though I know it does not sound very realistic given the hard grip of "Hindutva" that the Indians are caught by!
hindutva is the only thing which saved india and still saving bharat otherwise we have seen what fools have done in malda and kerela
he belongs to a very wrong party
mrir2008 Hindutva is a disease just like Islamic Fundamentalism. Rationalism would take India a long way.
@@Anmol34 disease? It probably prevented India from becoming a caliphate.
THANK YOU DR.THAROOR.
HAPPY INTER -DEPENDENCE DAYS...!!!
He is one among the many guys who are liked by both the right and the left. This just goes to show that the right and the left share almost similar values in India they just disagree on how to achieve the goal.
He can start his own centrist party like macron
I wish , I had a teacher like him
Very harsh audience. They did not respond to any of the humour in the speech.
It is time that the Congress party explores possibility to get a prominent and learned cosmopolitan with world citizenship background to lead that Party at this crucial hour of crisis.
I'm so glad to predict that again he will be our Foreign minister in future.
Always such a pleasure watching him give a speech. Brilliant views and an even brilliant orator!
Shashi Tharoor is actually Indias voice on a global stage.
Thanks for sharing this useful information,....
keep sharing..
Yes. He failed to mention Shri P. V. Narasimharao the then PM who lead the Government to usher in LPG era , Liberalisation, Privatisation & Globalisation.
Shashi tharoor is a charismatic blend of nehru ambedkar and amartya sen... Very great and visionary Indian alive
Great flow of language and pun
one thing i have noticed is that he keeps repeating his references and stories...if you actually listen to all his speeches, they are almost the same. the globalization story, the Diana story on globalization, the story of the goats eating the reel, so many of them. Nevertheless, an astonishing speaker.
Yes so true he repeats his examples but they are worth listening again again!
lollamiaful I was just gonna comment the same thing, however i looked down first because I cannot be the only Shashi Tharoor oration fan who has watched all his speeches😂
What is wrong with repeating. Learn it
@@sreshthasinha1672you cannot invent new stories every time you speak lol... You have only few events that impacted you personally at your disposal and if you want to be authentic it's better to stick to what you know personally
He is the real Patriots
At 35:12, his memory got blurred it seems when he said the SAARC constitutes only 7 members.
I like this school. I will join it.
always engaging
Good 1
Une pure merveille que les propos de cette grande intelligence
Great man. Proud of you Tharoorji
Thank you Mr Tharoor for your informative speech .
UNIQUE ORATIONS INDEED.

we Indian missed him for being our topmost potential leader, still then we dreamt for his being in the prime leader leasing the nation in world eta, let's give at least a times tonproved his mettle, so that the world recognise Indians intellectuals, to highlight that Indian are no less than any one I the world.

As usual a 'sterling performance' as the British would say..
What does it mean?
@@starscream1457 It means a very good Lecture.
Globalization is not new. Silk road, long before colonials and conquistadors.
All the sentences are not straight forward….
Typical dynasty boot licker....... He should have also taken the name of Late Shri PV Narsimha rao, our Honourable former prime minister who had the vision and directed economic reforms, that saved the country from bankruptcy.However I admire his speech....

A right man in the wrong party. Why cant some geniuses get their priorities correct?
He is very much in the right party. He is not right wing bigot
@@jacksonthomas9294 bigot? That's what Congress stands for. BJP is the most secular party we've seen. Not one case has proven otherwise. Not one.
Mughal India was Pax Indica.
Shut up.... Maurya india and gupta india was pax indica as indian culture spreaded to east in this time.... Islam is not indian culture so india lost this title when villains or mughsls came
Mauryans and Maratha confederates led Pax Indica. Go 🏠 and read 📚 on Indian economic history.
