The Parachuted Monarch and The Weight of a Civilisation

In this incisive critique of U.S. policy toward Iran, Amandeep Midha dismantles the fantasy of regime change via exile restoration. He argues that Iran cannot be “unlocked” by parachuting in Reza Pahlavi, and that such visions reflect a profound misunderstanding of Iran’s civilisational depth. Situating current U.S. strategy within a broader historical and geopolitical framework, Midha reminds us that Iran is not a hollow state but one of the world’s oldest continuous civilisational projects—having absorbed and outlasted empires from the Macedonians to the Mongols, Arabs to Turks. In this way, this essay effectively challenges the intellectual poverty of contemporary imperial thinking. 

Denmark Snap Election and the Long Overdue Reckoning with American Hegemony

The Article by Amandeep Midha is scathing and highly critical of the United States. The news-peg on which Midha's story revolves, is the snap elections declared by the Denmark Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen to seek the mandate of the people to confront the United States on the issue of Greenland. Midha points out that despite decades of compliance and participating in the wars which had nothing to do with Denmark, an American president has threatened to seize Danish territory. However, the show of defiance by Denmark may mark a new chapter in the histories of the United States and Europe. You are likely to enjoy this article as a thriller. Please do have a look.

India EU FTA: A Trade Agreement That Is Really About Power and Memory

On the Edge: Crisis, Miscalculation, and the Fragile Balance in the Gulf

The Gulf is tense once again. Military posturing, proxy conflicts, and systemic threats create a volatile environment where miscalculations could escalate into regional — or even global — crises. Transparency in policy, while controversial, may be the world’s best chance to prevent disaster.

We are trying to create a platform where our readers will find a place to have their say on the subjects ranging from socio-political to culture and society. We do have our own views on politics and society but we expect friends from all shades-from moderate left to moderate right-to join the conversation. However, our only expectation would be that our contributors should have an abiding faith in the Constitution and in its basic tenets like freedom of speech, secularism and equality. We hope that this platform will continue to evolve and will help us understand the challenges of our fast changing times better and our role in these times.
