  3. Historical Evolution • NAM originated from the 1955 Asia-Africa Conference. Twenty-nine states participated. Mostly former African and Asian colonies comprised them. They convened to discuss common concerns, development plans, and international relations. • Founded in the former Yugoslavia in 1961, NAM consists of 120 members, 17 observer countries and 10 observer organizations, representing nearly two-thirds of the United Nations' members, or about 55 percent of the world population .largest grouping of countries outside of the United Nations, NAM's membership is particularly concentrated in developing countries. • Jawaharlal Nehru, India's first prime minister and prominent advocate of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM), delivered a well-known speech in 1956 explaining why developing countries should follow the non-alignment course. • "When we say our policy is one of non-alignment, obviously we mean non-alignment with military blocs," Indian Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru explained in a December 1948 speech in Sri Lanka DR.DEOLANKAR-2014

  4. Historical Evolution • Observer ones include China, Russia, and Brazil. • 16thSummit,Tehran-representatives of 120 countires participated • 17th NAM Summit 2015-Venezuala • Two new members accepted-Azerbaijan Republic and Fiji, • Issues addressed included major power pressures, maintaining independence, and opposing neocolonialism, especially "western domination,racialism,disarmamament DR.DEOLANKAR-2014

  5. CONTRIBUTION OF NAM • Among other matters it played a key role in promoting decolonisation. It promoted peaceful resolution of international disputes, it sought to place disarmament on the global agenda and it emphasised the need to reduce global economic disparities.Some American scholars, most notably Nina Tannenwald, have argued that it played a key role in promoting the taboo against the use of nuclear weapons DR.DEOLANKAR-2014

  6. IS NAM RELEVANT? • NAM IS RELEVANT • great challenges in the areas of peace and security, economic development, social progress, as well as rule of law • NAM second largest after UN and can play imp role in world politics • 21st century economic war, groups are fighting for economic interests-threat to the economic intersts of underdeveloped countries • Bali summit indonisia-possibility of North south conflict on economic issues • NAM is transforming from political to economic organisationNAM has concentrated on enviromental issues- lusaka and algiars summits • Hegemonic and uni-polar trends • Collective global governance to cut US Hegemony • Middle Eastern Revolutions,can play role in Syria • Palestine problem not resolved DR.DEOLANKAR-2014

  7. New challenges • Conflict Resolution • Complete Disarmament • Just Global order • New forms of racialism • Environment protection, human rights. • Global governance and collective management of world • Creation of just world order • Promotion and protection of human rights and human security DR.DEOLANKAR-2014

  8. IS NAM RELLEVANT? NAM IS IRRELEVANT • "I've never quite understood what it is they would be nonaligned against at this point," then-Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice sighed just after the movement's 2006 summit, in Havana. "I mean, you know, the movement came out of the Cold War."   • NAM representing rogue states-Anthony Lake warned in Foreign Affairs that five "rogue states" still threatened world peace. His list was almost identical to Reagan's: Iran, Cuba, North Korea, Libya, and instead of Nicaragua, Iraq. All active, highly visible members in the Non-Aligned Movement, all states that undermine the global peace that movement was first meant to protect • Changes in FP-alliances that will guarantee our security • Regionalism • Globalization • Market Economy • American Unilateralism • Most of the Arab nations have maintained diplomatic relations with Isreal DR.DEOLANKAR-2014

  9. NAM:FOREIGN POLICY OPTION FOR INDIA India’s strategic challenges are grave and increasing. New Delhi must recognize that the strategic solution to the country’s predicament Arguments in favor • nonalignment presents an attractive option for a rising India. It promises freedom from entangling alliances as well as the chance to advance Indian exceptionalism against the Machiavellian imperatives of traditional international politics. • Most importantly, it holds out the prospect that India can chart its own path free from machinations of external actors, an understandable objective for a country scarred by its colonial past. • non-alignment is policy of independence with emphasis on "judging each issue on its merit" and disfavouring multi-lateral military alliances • NAM will faililitate smart choices for India.India can maximize national power through smart choices at home and abroad • Nonalignment 2.0, which offers the vision of “allying with none” as a grand strategy for India in the coming years. DR.DEOLANKAR-2014

  10. NAM:FOREIGN POLICY OPTION • This policy doesn't reject the idea of strategic alliances ( remember Indo- Soviet Treaty of 1971), it only wants to enter an alliance which it thinks is in its favour. DR.DEOLANKAR-2014

  11. NAM:FOREIGN POLICY OPTION Counter Arguments • reviving nonalignment as an overarching policy is unrealistic • to chart an entirely independent foreign policy • NAM ability to settle international disputes proved to be next to non-existent some of its founders, resorted to force • China is a rising geopolitical competitor whose potential threat to Indian security interests • Pakistan continues to pose dangers to India • Can India muster the necessary resources to cope with its strategic challenges independently? DR.DEOLANKAR-2014

  12. NAM:FOREIGN POLICY OPTION • In the second decade of the 21st century, India is moving increasingly beyond non-alignment to what Ashley Tellis have described, in his recent book, PaxIndica: India and the World of the 21st Century, as "multi-alignment" - maintaining a series of relationships, in different configurations, some overlapping, some not, with a variety of countries for different purposes. • India has embarked on preferential strategic partnerships taking the form of high-quality trading ties, robust defense cooperation and strong diplomatic collaboration DR.DEOLANKAR-2014

  13. Suggestions • NAM should also change just like G8 has changed to G20 etc., They should • ask countries like China and Brazil to become part of NAM which weren't part of NAM. That will really strength NAM if they do • Strengthen organizational structure • a more structured collective leadership • meetings should be more regular there are • Setting up of NAM Secretariat • To create third world currency to counter American dollar DR.DEOLANKAR-2014
