'The editor has grouped the 15 substantive chapters into one of
four themes: order, leadership, institutions, and prospects and
perspectives. She succinctly expresses the unifying challenge
within the region as one of managing rapid growth but also
confronting its vulnerability. There is much of value in this
volume ...'Journal of the Indian Ocean RegionFive out of the eight
South Asian countries have direct access to the Indian ocean, yet
research tends to focus instead on the region's landmass. Much less
attention is paid to the extensive maritime space that links South
Asian countries, provides their populations with vital access to
resources, connects their economies to global trade networks and
perhaps most importantly, contributes to law and order at sea.At a
time when the Indian Ocean has gained great interest and relevance
for many global actors, the role and location of South Asia will
have critical implications for strategic calculation and alignment.
Furthermore, if trade imbalances are to be tackled and economic
globalization to regain steam, enhancing South Asia's ability to
export and import through the oceans is essential. Finally, climate
change is projected to impact South Asia massively. Coping with
humanitarian crises and natural disasters will need critical
investments in maritime capacities and cooperation.This edited
volume brings together multiple perspectives on contemporary
maritime governance in South Asia, from practitioners,
policy-makers and academics around the world. They examine India's
role as South Asia's leading naval and economic power and the
capacity of key actors to shape maritime order in the Indian Ocean.
