Overview

This volume, with contributions from some of the most informed and celebrated commentators in the field, deals with issues of national security in India. Among the topics discussed include: India's emergence as a nuclear power and its associated problems; the relations with its two nuclear neighbours - China and Pakistan; India's position vis-a-vis the United States' dominated world order; and the transformation of India from a developing country to a middle-ranking power.

Synopsis

This volume brings together original essays by internationally renowned scholars who provide a wide-ranging examination of national security in India. They discuss strategic and foreign policy issues that lie at the heart of India’s security concerns in today’s world order. The book charts India’s growth from a poor, developing country to a middle-ranking nuclear power and examines its position in a US-dominated world order. It then looks at India’s relations with its nuclear neighbours—China and Pakistan and explores possibilities of nuclear risk-reduction in the South Asian region. The volume ends with two essays on Subrahmanyam’s contribution to the security debate and a select bibliography of his writings.
