In Depth - July 2025

In dit nummer

This month, we mark a moment of historic significance as we
explore the Dalai Lama’s 90th birthday — a spiritual landmark
entwined with profound geopolitical consequences. On July 6th,
His Holiness will choose his successor for the first time while
in exile, raising urgent questions about Tibet’s future and the
shifting balance of power in South Asia. Our cover story analyses
these dynamics and what they mean for India’s strategic position
in a rapidly changing region.
We also turn our lens to the ongoing Iran-Israel conflict, where
global powers continue their unyielding pursuit of influence at
humanity’s expense. This decade has shown us that the true cost
of power struggles is measured not in territories gained, but in
lives lost, displaced, or forever changed.
Yet not all change comes through conflict. We highlight France’s
new law advancing sustainability in fashion — a welcome
reminder that policy can spark industry-wide responsibility.
While the journey towards a sustainable future is long, each step
forward deserves recognition.
Thank you for being with us on this journey. May this issue
provoke your thoughts, challenge your perspectives, and, as
always, inspire you to look InDepth.
