Research Fellow, Manohar Parrikar IDSA, Dr. Jagannath Panda’s co-authored commentary ‘The Quad’s Future is tied to Soft Security’ has been published by the PacNet in Pacific Forum. The piece argues that rather than a mechanism aimed only at contesting China, the Quad must emerge as a soft and succinct regional cohesive grouping that promotes a culture of democratic ideals and links intellectual persuasion with the Indo-Pacific architecture to further its acceptance and institutionalization.
