Research
The IPCS is working to draft a comprehensive framework for security studies. Ideally, this framework will be responsive to the constantly changing demands of national, regional and global security. This is accomplished by analyzing existing approaches to security, peace, and world order and creating models for the development of alternative approaches. More specifically, the IPCS focuses on:
- Disarmament and Arms Control
- Non-proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction
- Comprehensive and Cooperative Security
- Non-military Threats to Security
- Confidence building measures
- Terrorism
- Indo-Pakistani Relations
- Sino-Indian Relations
- Regional Cooperation in South Asia
- South and South-east Asian Security
- The Foreign Policies of the Countries in South and South-east Asia
- The Foreign Policies of the Major Powers
- China's Security Policies
- General Security and Governance
- Human Security
