| Summary, etc |
This article argues that India's peacekeeping engagements, from United Nations Operation in the Congo in the 1960s to United Nation Organization Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo in the present day, should be understood not only as operational commitments but as deliberate forms of peace diplomacy. Drawing on theories of soft power, strategic narratives, and middle-power diplomacy, the article examines how India's peacemaking legacy can be reframed as a strategic asset- supporting its aspirations for global leadership. Simultaneously, the article critically interrogates the reputational, structural, and policy challenges that may inhibit India's ability to leverage peacemaking into lasting diplomatic capital. By repositioning peacemaking as a site of normative statecraft, the article contributes to a growing body of scholarship that explores how emerging powers engage with and reshape the global governance architecture. - Reproduced |
