Accepted Paper:

China and India as 'Rising Powers': of Methods and Possibities between dialogic and dialectics  
Rityusha Tiwary (Shaheed Bhagat Singh College, University of Delhi)

Paper short abstract:

This paper revisits the concept of rising power through China and India investigating the methods to interpretation that this term connotes.

Paper long abstract:

The idea behind the usage of 'rising powers' vocabulary is prima facie poised in the light of changes in power dynamics of world politics. China and India studied together in this context invariably invite a prori analyses in terms of nature of their interactions, interpretation of their ideas of Self and their future behaviours. The methods of enquiry are limiting and restricted to an overarching paradigm.

This paper investigates the term ' rising powers' in contexts of China and India taking cues from the interpretation of their ideas of modern 'Self', their Asian interconnections and seperations. The presence of multiple and oft negleced variables lead to reinterperation of possibilties of cooperation and collaboration as well contradictions of inter- state, inter- regional rivalries.
