,1,On June 4, results came in from the largest democratic election in history. Over 640 million people voted in India’s election, which took place at over one million polling places across the country over the course of six weeks.
Many predicted that India’s prime minister Nerandra Modi and his party, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) would dominate the election, grow their ranks in Parliament, and further impose their Hindu-nationalist ideology on the country.
However, that wasn’t what happened. Modi was reelected, but his party lost over 60 seats in the lower house of Parliament. The BJP will have to govern as part of a multi-party coalition, and most likely moderate their Hindu-nationalist aspirations.
On this episode, you’ll hear from Ashutosh Varshney, a political scientist at Brown University and director of the Watson Institute’s Saxena Center for Contemporary South Asia (https://watson.brown.edu/southasia/) , about this historic election: what led to its surprising outcome, what it means for the Hindu-nationalist movement embodied by Prime Minister Nerandra Modi, and what it might tell us about the struggle for democracy occurring in countries around the world.

,1,Global talks on a climate funding agreement are on the brink of collapse after representatives of developing countries walked out of a COP29 meeting en masse. Wealthy countries had reportedly offered more than $450 billion per year by 2035 but lower-income nations argued the commitment fell far short of the required amount to combat climate change. The UTS Centre for Climate Risk and Resilience’s researcher Mona Mashhadi Rajabi says developing countries were expecting $1.3 trillion and their walkouts were a ‘sign of dissatisfaction’ rather than a withdrawal in protest.
