China and India are becoming increasingly influential, powerful and
prominent countries but what kind of states do their leaders and
people wish them to become? Will they act and behave like major
Western entities or like something altogether different, hence
changing the very nature of international affairs? And as the Asian
twenty-first century takes shape, how will these dynamics affect
the wider geopolitical landscape and the balance of power? In this
in-depth study, Chris Ogden evaluates the prospective impact of
China and India upon the definition and nature of great power in
the contemporary world. Whilst many contend that they will rise in
a similar way to current and previous great powers namely via
traditional material, economic and military measures Ogden explores
the extent to which domestic political and cultural values as well
as historical identities and perceptions are also central driving
forces behind their common status, ambitions and worldviews. In so
doing, he offers a new and comprehensive analysis of these two
countries' past, contemporary and future global significance, in
particular their shared status as the world's first such
post-imperial great powers.
