Thoughtscapes Series
Thoughtscapes is CPRF’s flagship strategic book discussion series, conceived to advance intellectual discourse, strategic literacy, and evidence-based policy conversations on foreign policy, international relations, geopolitics, diplomacy, security, and statecraft. By bringing together authors, diplomats, policymakers, scholars, practitioners, and young researchers, the series seeks to bridge the gap between academia and policymaking, translating scholarly ideas into practical policy insights.
The series has hosted engaging discussions on acclaimed works, including Vishwashastra by Mr. Dhruva Jaishankar, The Unfinished Quest by Prof. T. V. Paul, and Friends: India’s Closest Strategic Partners by Dr. Sreeram Chaulia, among many other influential publications. Each session promotes critical thinking, constructive dialogue, and the exchange of diverse perspectives on contemporary global affairs.
Looking ahead, CPRF envisions Thoughtscapes as a vibrant intellectual ecosystem that empowers young scholars, researchers, and emerging policy professionals to contribute fresh ideas and original scholarship. Through sustained dialogue and collaborative learning, the series aims to build a true Mandala of Books – a community where knowledge, debate, and innovation converge to shape the future of strategic thought.
