Theorizing Indian Foreign Policy: Rethinking Asia and International Relations

Editat de Mischa Hansel, Raphaëlle Khan, Mélissa Levaillant
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 24 apr 2017
Examined from a non-Western lens, the standard International Relations (IR) and Foreign Policy Analysis (FPA) approaches are ill-adapted because of some Eurocentric and conceptual biases. These biases partly stem from: first, the dearth of analyses focusing on non-Western cases; second, the primacy of Western-born concepts and method in the two disciplines. That is what this book seeks to redress. Theorizing Indian Foreign Policy draws together the study of contemporary Indian foreign policy and the methods and theories used by FPA and IR, while simultaneously contributing to a growing reflection on how to theorise a non-Western case. Its chapters offer a refreshing perspective by combining different sets of theories, empirical analyses, historical perspectives and insights from area studies. Empirically, chapters deal with different issues as well as varied bilateral relations and institutional settings. Conceptually, however, they ask similar questions about what is unique about Indian foreign policy and how to study it. The chapters also compel us to reconsider the meaning and boundary conditions of concepts (e.g. coalition government, strategic culture and sovereignty) in a non-Western context. This book will appeal to both specialists and students of Indian foreign policy and International Relations Theory.

Recenzii

"Though it is often called the "largest democracy on earth," Indian foreign policy remains under-theorized. This timely volume, therefore, represents a significant contribution to the literature. Historical, analytical, cultural, and critical insights can all be found within its pages. Scholars of Indian politics as well as Foreign Policy Analysis will find the diverse chapters very useful as they attempt to parse Indian foreign policy." - Valerie M. Hudson, Texas A&M University
"After the new wave of Indian foreign policy scholarship that brought archival research and frameworks of international and global history to bear on the subject, this volumes presages a second new wave of scholarship, combining theory, eclectic methods, and rich empirics. Vigorous, insightful, and ranging over historical and contemporary foreign policy cases, this is a stimulating addition to the emerging literature on India’s external relations and policies." - Kanti Bajpai, Wilmar Chair in Asian Studies, Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, National University of Singapore
