 tly heightens the trans-border risk of infectious disease. The spread of E
 bola in 2015 illustrates this vulnerability while revealing that many coun
 tries are ill-prepared to prevent\, detect\, assess\, notify and respond t
 o infectious disease outbreaks. Although national governments are charged 
 with the responsibility of safeguarding the health of their citizens\, the
 se responsibilities are embedded in a web of international standards\, nor
 ms\, and commitments. Recently\, there has been a push for the World Healt
 h Organization to facilitate the development and implementation of interna
 tional legal frameworks to address trans-border health concerns. The Inter
 national Health Regulations (IHR)\, which came into force in 2007\, is one
  such legally binding agreement that aims to standardize disease surveilla
 nce\, reporting\, and response among the 196 national governments who are 
 members. Despite enthusiasm surrounding the potential for IHR to strengthe
 n the global response to infectious disease outbreaks\, as of 2016\, only 
 33% State Parties have fully implemented the IHR core obligations. The low
  levels of implementation point to the need to better understand the relat
 ionship between governments and these international institutions. In explo
 ring this relationship\, we argue that geopolitical\, cultural and economi
 c factors are of paramount importance. Our study engages with internationa
 l relations theory to understand the factors that shape IHR implementation
  in India. Our approach seeks to gain a local understanding of the relatio
 nship between India and the global political economy\, the meaning India a
 ssigns to IHR commitments\, and the notion of global health security more 
 broadly. We are using a combination of qualitative interviewing and ethnog
 raphic methods to examine how decision-makers engage with IHR commitments 
 in India.\n\n	SRIKANTH REDDY BIOGRAPHY\n\n	SrikanthReddy is a medical anthro
