Concept Note

In the contemporary world, growing prevalence of territorial disputes is deeply embedded within international politics. Thus, the study of contested territories has become significantly important at the moment across the world. These territories, which are frequently contested inside or between nations, are informed by a complex interaction of cultural identities, resource competitiveness, historical grudges, and strategic interests resulting in geopolitical shifts. Through a comprehensive lens, this conference aims to analyze these contested lands from an all-encompassing perspective. In other words, this seminar aims to understand different contested lands through interdisciplinary approaches. It also intends to identify myriad factors leading to contestation of lands and its impact on local, national as well as the international politics.
