Abstract
A aplicação da Teoria da Paz Democrática à literatura da transição de poder bem como o posicionamento da China como a mais poderosa potência emergente tem levado a relegar para segundo plano o estudo de democracias emergentes e o seu papel na futura ordem internacional. Este artigo estuda o caso da Índia que sugere que as democracias também colocam desafios à ordem liberal, ainda que de natureza diferente dos das autocracias. As posições recentes de Nova Deli relativamente a um conjunto de temas centrais para a ordem internacional leva ao questionamento de pressupostos teóricos e à procura de variáveis alternativas que justifiquem a política externa indiana.
The direct or indirect use of the democratic peace thesis with power transition theory and the preeminent rise of China among emergent powers led to a systematic disregard of the role of rising democracies in the upcoming international order. This article studies India’s case and concludes that rising democracies also challenge the current normative basis of states’ relations, in a different way than autocracies. New Delhi’s foreign policy in recent years suggests that the theoretical tools are not fully adequate to address these cases.
