India’s Grand Strategy: History, Theory, Cases: War and International Politics in South Asia

Editat de Kanti Bajpai, Saira Basit, V. Krishnappa
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 ian 2016
As India prepares to take its place in shaping the course of an ‘Asian century’, there are increasing debates about its ‘grand strategy’ and its role in a future world order. This timely and topical book presents a range of historical and contemporary interpretations and case studies on the theme. Drawing upon rich and diverse narratives that have informed India’s strategic discourse, security and foreign policy, it charts a new agenda for strategic thinking on postcolonial India from a non-Western perspective. Comprehensive and insightful, the work will prove indispensable to those in defence and strategic studies, foreign policy, political science, and modern Indian history. It will also interest policy-makers, think-tanks and diplomats.

Recenzii

‘A must-read for those interested in new thinking in the world's most complex and challenged great power.’ — Stephen Philip Cohen
‘An up-to-date, serious and thoughtful treatment of a very vital subject for all who care about India.’ — Meghnad Desai

‘Bajpai, Basit and Krishnappa map a terrain that has been barely explored. There is no better introduction to understanding India's grand strategy.’ — C. Raja Mohan
‘A decisive refutation of the thesis that India lacks — or has not reflected on — grand strategy. No scholar of Indian national security can afford not to engage [with] it.’ — Ashley J. Tellis
‘A valuable introduction to an emerging literature on how India views its [economic] rise and what it means for the world. — Sanjaya Baru
