Vasileios Syros (Greek: Βασίλειος Σύρος) is a Greek-Finnish historian of political thought, holder of the Chair of Excellence in Indo-Hellenic Strategic Thought & Statecraft at the Centre for Military History and Conflict Studies at the United Service Institution of India (USI),[1][2] India's oldest and foremost tri-service think tank (est. 1870) for research into national security and military affairs. He is also Director of the Early Modern Greek Culture Program at The Medici Archive Project in Florence, Italy,[3] Senior Research Fellow at the Institute for European Global Studies at the University of Basel,[4] and Life Member of Clare Hall at the University of Cambridge.[5] His main research and teaching interests lie in the comparative examination of the medieval and early modern Christian, Islamic, and Jewish political traditions.[6] A second cluster of his research looks at intercultural contacts between pre-modern Europe and non-Western societies and polities, especially the Byzantine, Mughal, and Ottoman Empires. Syros also works on the comparative study of diverse models of leadership and cultural diplomacy.

He has taught at Stanford University,[12] McGill University, The University of Chicago, the École Pratique des Hautes Études (Paris), and the University of Navarra (Spain).[13] He was a Lady Davis Visiting professor at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, a Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences Visiting professor at Radboud University Nijmegen, and a Descartes Senior Fellow at Utrecht University.[14] He was Full Professor and Holder of the Greek Chair (under the auspices of the Greek Government) at Jawaharlal Nehru University.[15][16] He has also taught comparative political theory and cross-cultural leadership at Beijing University and Nankai University (China), Sungkyunkwan University (South Korea), Waseda University (Japan), and Al-Farabi Kazakh National University (Kazakhstan).[7][17] Syros frequently consults with NATO,[18][19] OSCE, and government agencies about cultural property protection and crisis management.
