It has been a belief that rational people make rational decisions. This belief system has generated an entire rational choice theory, which says that people employ logical calculations to make sensible decisions and obtain outcomes that are in line with their own goals. This concept has also been the main assumption in most of the economics that we study. But do you think that people make rational decisions every time? Delve deeper and analyse the biases that affect your decisions even without you noticing them.

Act East Policy Report

After gaining independence in 1947, India under the leadership of Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru, highlighted a desire to model its foreign policy firmly by placing key emphasis on building close diplomatic relations with fellow newly independent Asian states. Over the years, the Look East Policy thus created transformed into “Act East”, and India proactively moved to strengthen its foreign policy.

Over the past few months, the Research and Analysis Department of 180 Degrees Consulting, SRCC has carried out extensive research into the Act East Policy’s origins, frameworks and initiatives from a holistic perspective. We thus curated a report, wherein we delve deep into India’s rich history of strategic, economic and political ties in the subcontinent, and analyze the policy’s pertinence and impact. Subsequently, we have also provided policy recommendations in this report that could go a long way in resolving certain loopholes in the current trajectory, and strengthen the rigour with which the policy has been implemented till date.
