Soft Power of India

Journal Title: Historia i Polityka - Year 2019, Vol 0, Issue 28

Abstract

India is a country experiencing tremendous eco­nomic growth while its political ambitions are aiming higher and higher as well. The country is trying to increase its global power using re­sources and instruments of soft power. India is learning this art anew, using its rich culture and reaching back to its past traditions. References made to religious diversity and democracy are another powerful tool in the state arsenal. There has been a reorientation in foreign policy as well, which refocused on supporting the state’s economic development by seeking and maintaining good relations with foreign countries. Soft power instruments have grown in importance, especially as concerns culture and values, which combined with peaceful poli­cies made for a truly great opportunity of using soft power.
