In terms of the multipolarity trends increasingly felt in the international system today, South Asian countries need to be closely monitored and thoroughly examined, particularly in the context of their relations with the US and China. More importantly, South Asian authoritarian regimes, populist policies, religious nationalism, radicalization, separatism, and resorting to violence provide important examples for comparative research on many transregional issues that have diverse connections and implications in a global context. On the other hand, within the scope of criticisms that the discipline of International Relations has a “Western-centric perspective” and is, in particular, an “American social science,” South Asia-focused studies, which largely exclude themes that are largely excluded and insufficiently addressed in Western-sourced literature, are gaining importance in today’s world and encourage us to ask new questions with the new perspectives they bring to the discipline of International Relations. In this context, the Global Academy South Asia Working Group will adopt a multidisciplinary approach in its research and studies, enriching its work with contributions from the fields of political science, history, economics, sociology, anthropology, and literature, in addition to international relations.
