| 6/23/26 | ![]() China's Legal Architecture of Economic Statecraft | What are the complex web of regulations driving China's economic statecraft? Set against the backdrop of intensifying US-China technological competition and the race for frontier AI models, Kripa Koshy (Staff Programme Manager) and Amit Kumar (Staff Research Analyst, Geostrategy Programme) explore how Beijing is systematically codifying its ability to use its economy for geopolitical leverage. Tune in as they analyse China's shift toward formal, rule-based retaliation, including the newly announced Decrees 834, 835 and 837, and the daunting "compliance trap" that global businesses now face when caught between Western sanctions and Chinese laws.All Things Policy is a daily podcast on public policy brought to you by the Takshashila Institution, Bengaluru.Find out more on our research and other work here: https://takshashila.org.in/research-areasCheck out our public policy courses here: https://school.takshashila.org.in | — | ||||||

| 6/18/26 | ![]() How Can Biotechnology Strengthen Military Resilience? | Biotechnology is more likely to shape warfare through improvements in health protection, sensing, and distributed manufacturing than through exotic ‘super soldier’ technologies. In this episode, Shambhavi Naik discusses with Sarthak Pradhan how biotechnology can make a difference at the individual soldier, operational unit, and theatre levels. The episode is based on Shambhavi's recent paper - www.ippr.in/index.php/ippr/article/view/535, published in the Indian Public Policy Review.All Things Policy is a daily podcast on public policy brought to you by the Takshashila Institution, Bengaluru.Find out more on our research and other work here: https://takshashila.org.in/research-areasCheck out our public policy courses here: https://school.takshashila.org.in | — | ||||||
| 6/17/26 | ![]() Japan’s Defence Transformation | Japan spent most of the last eighty years as the textbook case of a pacifist state. A constitution that renounces war, a one percent cap on defence spending, a ban on selling weapons abroad. That picture is now changing fast. Tokyo has built counterstrike missiles, started exporting lethal equipment, and set out to double its defence budget. Join Arindam Goswami and Vanshika Saraf in this episode of All Things Policy as we talk about what has changed, what hasn't, and why a country can rearm without ever rewriting the rule that says it can't. Vanshika has just written a paper tracing exactly how this happened and how far it really goes.

| 6/16/26 | ![]() India's Orbit Problem Isn't Pakistan | A recent investigation argues that Pakistan, with Chinese support, has rapidly expanded its Earth-observation satellite network, creating the ability to monitor Indian territory with increasing frequency. At the same time, India is building its own ambitious space-based surveillance architecture. So what should we really be worried about? Is this a story about satellites? About data? About military preparedness? Or about our ability to convert information into a strategic advantage? To help unpack this, (Sowmya Prabhakar) is in conversation with Ashwin Prasad.All Things Policy is a daily podcast on public policy brought to you by the Takshashila Institution, Bengaluru.Find out more on our research and other work here: https://takshashila.org.in/research-areasCheck out our public policy courses here: https://school.takshashila.org.in | — | ||||||
| 6/15/26 | ![]() How Securitised is the Quad? | How relevant or securitised is the Quad? Is the Quad doing enough? These are recurrent questions that dominate the narrative around the grouping. When the foreign ministers of the four countries gathered recently for their 11th meeting in New Delhi, these questions again made headlines. And the criticism isn’t without substance.Tune in to this episode of ATP, where Bhumika Sevakani is joined by Amit Kumar to discuss the question: How security-focused is the Quad?.

| 5/28/26 | ![]() Dissecting Quad Foreign Ministers Meet | In this episode of the All Things Policy podcast, Vanshika Saraf and Abhishek Kadiyala examine the outcomes of the Quad Foreign Ministers Meeting held in New Delhi on 26 May 2025. The conversation highlights a structural shift in the Quad's orientation, away from the security-forward posture of the Biden era and toward an economic security and supply chain framework shaped by the second Trump administration's approach to great-power competition. Vanshika Saraf and Abhishek Kadiyala analyse key outcomes, including the Indo-Pacific Maritime Surveillance Cooperation Initiative, the Ports of the Future project in Fiji, and the Indo-Pacific Energy Security Framework. They argue that this reorientation reflects Washington's attempt to position Quad partners as instruments of economic competition with China, rather than security partners, while the Quad Economic Security Act and broader US congressional legislation continue to quietly anchor the platform's agenda. The episode asks whether this pivot toward economic cooperation offers a more durable foundation for the Quad, or whether the absence of a Leaders Summit signals a more limited strategic ambition for the grouping's future.Find our work here:The India Radius by Vanshika Saraf: https://theindianradius.substack.com/DC Dossier by Abhishek Kadiyala: https://dcdossier.substack.com/2026 US Mid-term Racebook: https://dcdossier.github.io/Generational-Mid-terms/Are you passionate about shaping India's future?

| 5/27/26 | ![]() Energy Realism for India | Amidst the escalating conflict in West Asia and the resulting constriction of oil and gas supply, the urgency to deploy renewable energy for enhanced energy security has grown.

Drawing on engagements across the country, the conversation explores how different arms of the American system are interpreting the China challenge. It also interrogates how the United States understands China’s domestic political economy and global ambitions, and whether its current approach is coherent or fragmented.

| 5/25/26 | ![]() The Iran Brief: Regional Order Unravelling | Drawing on the evolving trajectory of the US–Iran war and the wider regional transformations it has triggered, this episode of All Things Policy features Brigadier Anil Raman in conversation with Will Todman of the Center for Strategic and International Studies. The discussion examines how the Middle East changed between Trump’s return to office and the eventual US–Israeli decision to strike Iran, tracing the shifting positions of Israel, Iran, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Syria, and the Houthis within an increasingly fragmented regional order. The episode argues that the war did not emerge suddenly, but from accumulating structural pressures—Gaza, maritime insecurity, proxy escalation, nuclear tensions, and the weakening of older assumptions about American regional management. As the conflict has settled into an uneasy ceasefire, the conversation explores whether the Middle East is transitioning from episodic crises into a permanently contested geopolitical system. The episode analyses the emerging Saudi–UAE divergence, the rapid deepening of UAE–Israel strategic cooperation, and the growing importance of systemic disruption—energy flows, maritime trade, and supply chains—as instruments of war. At its core, the discussion asks whether the old US-managed order in the Middle East is breaking down and giving way to a more multipolar and unstable regional structure shaped by overlapping rivalries, flexible alignments, and continuous strategic competition.Are you passionate about shaping India's future?

| 5/22/26 | ![]() Deciphering China and Japan's Rivalry | How should we understand the growing rivalry between two 'tigers', Japan and China? The tension between both countries reached a critical point following Prime Minister Takaichi Sanae’s November 2025 declaration that a Chinese attack on Taiwan constitutes a "survival-threatening situation". Such developments, inter alia, demonstrate how Japan's military and diplomatic engagement with China is significantly being altered. Join Kripa Koshy (Staff Programme Manager) and Vanshika Saraf (Geostrategy Programme Research Analyst) as they break down how this newfound assertiveness is playing out in the Indo-Pacific and what it means for the future of Indian foreign policy.Are you passionate about shaping India's future?
