Скачать или смотреть Library Rule Stalls India Strategy Think Tank 1

The United Service Institution of India (USI) is India’s oldest and most respected military think tank.
But one small rule is quietly doing enormous damage to its intellectual mission.

USI currently allows book reviews only for books already held in its library

USI Book Review Policy

.
This sounds administrative — but in reality it blocks new military thinking, delays debate, and excludes younger officers and scholars.

In this video, we examine:

• Why this policy violates USI’s own founding principles
• How it blocks AI, hybrid warfare, and cognitive security literature
• Why global PME institutions like RUSI, US Army War College, and NDU Press do the opposite
• How this rule creates intellectual stagnation
• A concrete reform proposal already drafted for the USI Council

This is not a personal grievance.
It is a structural governance failure inside India’s most important military knowledge institution.

If India wants modern doctrine, modern officers, and global-level strategic thinking, this policy must change — now.
