Abstract

The Coronavirus pandemic has brought disorder in the international world order that few would have anticipated. The ripple of this medical crisis has reached various domains in this highly interconnected world. As world powers are trying hard to maintain their supremacy, revisionist powers who were waiting in line are quick to make use of this opportunity. The article tries to focus on the changes in the international arena and seeks out how South Asia can go about with it, as glaring power dynamics are making the countries rethink the traditional roles, striving for relevance and influence in the highly uncertain and unequal globe.
