THE 2024 CAMDEN CONFERENCE
INDIA: Rising Ambitions, Challenges at Home.

"Seventy-five years after independence, India is on track to have both the world's largest population and the second largest economy. It is pursuing a unique path as a
democracy and as an ambitious player in global affairs.
Possession of nuclear weapons gives it prestige globally
and confidence in its security amid unstable neighbors.
Domestically, a diverse, complicated, multicultural mosaic of issues-from poverty, caste, religion, to repression of
women and minorities-pose unrelenting challenges for
democratic institutions. How will a younger generation of
Indian leaders choose its priorities? What's at stake for
China, Russia and the United States as India expands its role in the global economy and becomes a more assertive leader in the Indo-Pacific region?"

Course Meeting dates/times: The members of this course will be attending the 2024 Camden Conference virtually at Hannaford Hall on USM's Portland campus, at various times from Friday, February 16 to Sunday, February 18 (see provisional agenda below). Course
assignments and materials will be on Brightspace. Students are expected to be at the entire
conference. Prerequisites:
