ICI and SGPIA have launched a new blog: Pandemic Discourses.
https://www.indiachinainstitute.org/initiatives/pandemic-discourses/
The inaugural issue includes a contribution by President Lula Da Silva and Celso Amorim, as well as by Carlos Lopes and Biao Xiang.
These pieces by authors from Brazil, South Africa and China epitomise our objective to publish interdisciplinary views from diverse parts of the world, including the Global South in debates that have become dominated by euro/us centric writings.
The blog is a collaboration between the India China Institute and the Julien J. Studley Graduate Programs in International Affairs at The New School. It is co-edited by Sakiko Fukuda-Parr, Manjari Mahajan, and Mark W. Frazier.
