More than a professional association, the Jadavpur Association of International Relations (JAIR) is foremost a learned society. The direct advancement of knowledge is at the core of JAIR activities. We endeavour to bring together the whole gamut of social scientists and professionals from all fields of inquiry, regions, and occupational endeavours within and outside academe, and to expand awareness and understanding of International developments. A fundamental mission of JAIR is to support the professional workplace and career opportunities of young scholars working in the field of International Relations and Contemporary history. There is a role in the association for scholars and students from all venues and locations with a critical and comprehensive interest in the study of International Relations and the enrichment of public life. We shall be obliged if you kindly become the member of the Association to help us to work together to strengthen the discipline, enhance its impacts and broaden scholarly engagements.
