Routledge Handbook of the International Relations of South Asia
Editat de Šumit Ganguly, Frank O'Donnellen Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 oct 2024
South Asia as a region is increasingly assuming greater significance in global politics for a host of compelling reasons. This volume offers the most comprehensive collection of perspectives on the international politics of South Asia, and it it covers an extensive range of issues spanning from inter-state wars to migration in the region. Each contribution provides a careful discussion of the four major theoretical approaches to the study of international politics: Realism, Constructivism, Liberalism, and Critical Theory. In turn, the chapters discuss the relevance of each approach to the issue area addressed in the book. The volume offers coverage of the key issues under four thematic sections:
- Theoretical Approaches to the Study of the International Relations of South Asia
- Traditional and Emerging Security Issues in South Asia
- The International Relations of South Asia
- Cross-cutting Regional Issues
Further, every effort has been made in the chapters to discuss the origins, evolution and future direction of each issue.
This book will be of much interest to students of South Asian politics, human security, regional security, and International Relations in general.

Recenzii
'This is, hands down, the most comprehensive volume on South Asia’s geostrategy, security, and international relations published to date. Juxtaposing leading IR theories with essays by noted country experts, it is an indispensable resource for scholars, policymakers, and students seeking to understand a complex and increasingly important region.'
Neil DeVotta, Wake Forest University, USA
'Enriched by the four theoretical approaches to the study of International Relations of South Asia, the articles included in the book provide a variety of perspectives on aspects of traditional and non-traditional securities besides raising the agenda of redefinition of security. The book is immensely useful to the serious scholars, policy makers and students of international relations of South Asia.'
Lok Raj Baral, Former Professor Political Science,Tribhuvan University, Kathmandu, and Former Ambassador of Nepal to India
'This intellectually rigorous and comprehensive handbook is a significant contribution to the understanding of South Asia’s dealings with the world and to IR studies in general. Presenting the views of preeminent scholars and applying IR theory to south Asian practice, the 34 chapters of the book reveal the strengths and limitations of different theoretical approaches, examine strategic culture, illuminate the international relationships of major actors, and describe the longer term implications of trans-national issues like terrorism, climate change and outer space. Its writing makes it accessible to the informed layman. This is a book to savour, to return to often, and is destined to become a standard work of reference, setting a high standard for future scholars of South Asian IR.'
Shivshankar Menon, Centre for China Studies, Ashoka University, India
'This is an extraordinarily comprehensive, up to date, and high-quality volume on South Asia’s international relations. Its 34 chapters cover the four major theoretical approaches – realism, liberalism, constructivism and critical theory – and the entire gamut of issues from longstanding security issues within the region to emerging security issues like cybersecurity, space and refugees, to political economy, to country-specific international relations, perspectives from major world capitals and cross-national issues such as climate change and Covid. It will be a vital reference point for scholars of IR working on South Asia for a long time to come.'
