WHAT MATTERS TODAY | India and Pakistan: A Complex Relationship

India and Pakistan: A Complex Relationship

In today’s episode, we explore the layered and often turbulent history of Kashmir. From the final days of British colonial rule to the first war between India and Pakistan, the roots of the conflict run deep. We'll trace how early decisions and territorial disputes shaped the region’s divided identity and laid the groundwork for decades of tension.

As we move through the Cold War era and beyond, we’ll examine how global politics, rising militancy, and evolving strategies from New Delhi have influenced the trajectory of Kashmir. With recent events like the violence in Pahalgam and the Modi government’s response, we ask: how did we get here, and what lies ahead for this deeply contested region?

Our guest today is Gopalan Balachandran, Co-Director, Albert Hirschman Centre On Democracy and Honorary Professor of International History and Politics here at the Geneva Graduate Institute.
