Sino-Indian Border Disputes In An Era Of Strategic Expansions, Roman Muzalevsky

The US Army War College Quarterly: Parameters

The June 2020 clash between the People’s Republic of China and India in the disputed Ladakh border area resulted from the strategic expansions of both powers.

In pondering implications, it recommends Washington pursue a Eurasia-focused policy embracing the disputed region.

Políticas Públicas Locales, Un Caso De Estudio Sobre La Cultura Ciudadana, Santiago Silva Jaramillo, Juan Diego González Rúa, Andrea Arroyave Mejía

Gobernar: The Journal of Latin American Public Policy and Governance

El estudio de las políticas públicas locales guarda importantes lecciones y aprendizajes sociales para los tomadores de decisión que se encuentran inmersos en procesos de diseño, implementación o evaluación de intervenciones y acciones dirigidas a resolver problemas colectivos.
