Dive into the untold history of Nepal's foreign policy with Dr. Madan Kumar Bhattarai as we explore the evolution of diplomacy from the Rana regime to the modern Republic of Nepal. In this episode, we uncover how leaders like Mathwar Singh Thapa, the first official Prime Minister of Nepal, and Junga Bahadur Rana shaped Nepal's foreign affairs and international relations. Dr. Bhattarai sheds light on historical diplomatic missions, the significance of gift exchanges, and Nepal's early treaties with the East India Company. We explore how Karl Marx viewed Junga Bahadur, and how the British and East India Company resisted recognizing Nepal's independent foreign stance. The podcast also examines the diplomatic impacts following World War 2, including the rise of Nepal-India relations after India's independence. We discuss the fascinating roles of Munsi Khana and Jaisi Kotha, the early foreign departments of Nepal, and how Ranas issued different types of passports. Learn about Nepal's first international delegates, hunting diplomacy, and the transit rights that shaped trade routes. We also dive into Nepal-China diplomatic history, including the China-Tibet conflict, and the comparison of historical and present-day Nepal foreign policies.

Ambassador Nirupama Rao has had the kind of career that every Indian Foreign Service aspirant dreams of. In 2011, she retired as foreign secretary to the Government of India, the most senior position in the foreign service. She has served as spokesperson for the Ministry of External Affairs, ambassador to Sri Lanka, ambassador to China, and ambassador to the United States of America. She is also the author of a new book, The Fractured Himalaya: India Tibet China, 1949-62. The book is a deep dive into one of the most consequential periods of India-China relations—a period whose repercussions are felt even today. Ambassador Rao joins Milan on the podcast this week to discuss Nehru's long fascination with China, his inability to settle India's border dispute with China, and his “flawed heroic” character. Plus, the two discuss the current state of border tensions and the deep roots of China's infrastructure advantage in the Himalayas.“Pallavi Raghavan on an Alternative History of India-Pakistan Relations,” Grand Tamasha, April 7, 2020.“Modi's Farm Law Reversal, India-China, and Trade Policy,” Grand Tamasha, November 23, 2021.“Kanti Bajpai on Why China and India Are Not Friends,” Grand Tamasha, July 6, 2021.C.

Show Notes With last week's general discussion of the plot of Char's Counterattack out of the way, it's time to start diving deep on specific aspects of the film. This week: environmental justice advocate Colin joins us to discuss the environment, and environmentalism, in Char's Counterattack. Plus in the research Thom explores what it might mean that the Federation is headquartered in Lhasa while Nina looks at how a 1988 audience might have responded to talk of 'nuclear winter'. From the Talkback In preparation for our conversation, Colin had us read "Principles of Environmental Justice" by the Delegates to the First National People of Color Environmental Leadership Summit held on October 24-27, 1991, and "The Progressive Plantation" by Lorenzo Kom'boa Ervin. You can find Colin on Twitter at @padgettish and listen to them co-host for Wow! Cool Robot!!'s coverage of Zeta Gundam, or their own much less serious podcast about Medabots at Medawatch.

Mobile Suit Breakdown is written, recorded, and produced within Lenapehoking, the ancestral and unceded homeland of the Lenape, or Delaware, people. Before European settlers forced them to move west, the Lenape lived in New York City, New Jersey, and portions of New York State, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Connecticut. Lenapehoking is still the homeland of the Lenape diaspora, which includes communities living in Oklahoma, Wisconsin, and Ontario. You can learn more about Lenapehoking, the Lenape people, and ongoing efforts to honor the relationship between the land and indigenous peoples by visiting the websites of the Delaware Tribe and the Manhattan-based Lenape Center. Listeners in the Americas and Oceania can learn more about the indigenous people of your area at https://native-land.ca/.

तिब्बत हमेशा ही भारत और चीन के बीच टकराव की बड़ी वजह रहा लेकिन ये बीज अंग्रेज़ बो कर गए थे. ऐसा ही एक और लड़ाई का बीज उन्होंने अक्साई चिन में बोया जिसके चक्कर में 1962 की जंग हो गई, लेकिन बात इतनी सीधी नहीं है और ना इतने सीधे हैं भारत-चीन के रिलेशन. कम्युनिस्ट चीन की आक्रामकता, नेहरू की चीन-तिब्बत पॉलिसी, तिब्बत के कर्ता-धर्ताओं की लापरवाही बहुत कुछ है भारत-चीन के टकरावों में. आज इन्हीं की परतें खोलेंगे. गोपनीय सरकारी दस्तावेज़ों से निकली दिलचस्प कहानियों से भरी आज की बैठकी में नितिन ठाकुर के साथ अवतार सिंह भसीन शामिल हैं जिन्होंने ‘Nehru, Tibet and China' नाम की किताब तो लिखी ही है, वो ख़ुद विदेश मंत्रालय की Historical division के प्रमुख भी रहे हैं.इस बातचीत में सुनिए:- Tibet पर चीनी दावे के पीछे क्या लॉजिक हैं?- अंग्रेज़ों ने किस संधि की आड़ में तिब्बत को बचाए रखा?- कैसे Tibet का हिस्सा Tawang भारत को मिला?- 1947 की Asian Conference में China, India से क्यों रूठा?- क्या चाल चलकर China ने Tibet क़ब्ज़ाया?- तिब्बत से भागने को क्यों मजबूर हुए Dalai Lama?- China को लेकर Nehru की Policy confused थी?- Nehru ने UNSC में स्थायी सीट का मौक़ा चूका?- 1962 की जंग का असल ज़िम्मेदार कौन था?- क्या नेहरू सीमा विवाद ख़त्म करने से हिचकते रहे?- अक्साई चिन को चीन ने कैसे हासिल किया?

In this podcast Robert AF Thurman discusses the history of Nālandā & why the Dalai Lama of Tibet identifies Tibetan Buddhism as well as himself as heirs to the university whose ruins are located in modern-day Bihar, India. Founded under the patronage of the Gupta King Chandragupta II Vikramāditya in the 5th Century then Destroyed in 1203 by Turkish Muslim invaders, Professor Thurman illustrates how Nālandā University brought together the greatest minds of India, Persia, Indonesia, China & Tibet finding it’s highest expression in The seventeen greatest Pandits of Nālandā Monastery, whom the Dalai Lama celebrates in his famous eulogy. Podcast includes an overview of the most influential of the "Great Seventeen" Mahayana Buddhist yogi scientist sages (Nagarjuna, Aryadeva, Buddhapalita, Bhavaviveka, Chandrakirti, Shantideva, Shantarakshita, Kamalashila, Asanga, Vasubandhu, Dignaga, Dharmakirti, Arya Vimuktisena, Haribhadra, Gunaprabha, Shakyaprabha & Atisha) known for their middle-way centrist perspective & the popular Stages of the Path (lam-rim) teachings. “I am the longest guest of government of India for the last 58 years and am now paying back for that gesture by becoming the messenger of Indian culture. In fact, I consider myself a son of India. A few years ago, some Chinese reporters asked me why I identified myself as India's son. I told them that my mind and each part of my brain are filled with the knowledge and thought of Nalanda. Besides, in last 50 years this body survived on Indian dal, chapati and rice. That is why both physically and spiritually, I am a son of India. Buddha himself stated my followers should not accept my teaching out of faith or out of devotion, but rather thorough investigation and experiment, the scientific way of approach. So all the Nalanda masters like Nagarjuna, Aryadeva, Asanga, Chandrakirti, all these great masters of Nalanda, even Buddha's own words, they carry investigation whether Buddha's statement is acceptable or not. So they are always based on logic and experiment so, therefore, I follow that pattern, tradition.” HH Dalai Lama from www.huffingtonpost.in.

China sees itself as a victim of imperialism and colonialism. The modern Chinese nationalism, including the one adopted and promoted by the Chinese Communist Party, is defined through this. International scholarship on China often takes this narrative of China as anti-imperialist for granted. Professor Dibyesh Anand (University of Westminster, London) interrogates this narrative and argues that there is a fundamental disjuncture at the heart of the modern nation-state project in China.
