Conflict resolution and promotion of regional cooperation in South
Asia has assumed a new urgency in the aftermath of the nuclear
tests by India and Pakistan in 1998, and underlined by the outbreak
of fighting in Kargil in 1999, full mobilization on the border
during most of 2002, and continued low-intensity warfare and
terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir. The stability of nuclear deterrence
between the two countries is therefore a matter of great urgency
and has found a place on the scholarly agenda of security studies
in South Asia. Several books have been written on India's nuclear
programme, but these have been mostly analytical histories. The
India-Pakistan Nuclear Relationship is a new departure in that it
is the first time that a group of scholars from the South Asian
subcontinent have collectively tried to apply deterrence theory and
international relations theory to South Asia. This volume will be
useful to those in politics and international relations, security
and military studies, and defence and strategy studies as well as
to policymakers and government officials.
