Diplo Circle Magazine
The year 2019 has been particularly active for DiploFoundation faculty, alumni, and staff members. Some have published academic papers, books, and opinion pieces, while others held presentations at conferences, international organisations, news channels, web debates, and other events.
We appreciate the efforts pursued by the Diplo family and have brought some of them together in the first issue of the Diplo Circle Magazine. This issue features an opinion piece by Prof. Jovan Kurbalija, a reading recommendation by Prof. G. R. Berridge, and a tribute to the late Ambassador Paramjit (Pummy) Sahai.
