General Objective
This activity proposes to serve as an axis to articulate the academic efforts of the specialists in the area, through a series of thematic presentations that will serve as a vehicle to disseminate the knowledge produced in Mexico about this Asian nation. The aim is to create a space for the dissemination, discussion and reflection on the issues that define the Republic of India at the political, economic, socio-cultural and strategic levels; seeking, thereby, a better understanding of the characteristics, progress, and problems that envelop this country, as well as allowing the strategic analysis of the South Asia region and the continent in general. For accomplishing this, this activity promotes the participation of national specialists from various academic institutions, as well as a plural and critical dialogue between students, academics, and the general public, interested in the analysis of contemporary India and its relevance in the international world today. All of this aims to influence the personal and professional development of the attendees through the conjunction of theoretical and practical knowledge.
