Great Power Competition with a focus on Influence Operations Against India

In recent years, state-sponsored bad actors have exploited and weaponized social media platforms, technology products, and traditional media to engage in disinformation operations to undermine or influence policies, the security, and/or the stability of the United States, its allies, and its partners. The success of these operations has bolstered bad actors’ own ambitions, made them smarter on disinformation tactics, and encouraged other bad actors to enter the fray. For this Capstone project, the team will focus on state-sponsored disinformation operations against India.
