Leveraging India - A Manageable Solution to Contain Chinese Influence in Asia (Paperback)

Stability and reconstruction operations in Iraq and Afghanistan have stressed the resources and international reputation of the United States to the point where it can no longer effectively counter the growing Chinese influence in Asia. The U.S. must now look to other allies, specifically India, as a means of countering China's growing dominance. The recent decision of the U.S. to break with its past policy of sanctioning India for their pursuit of a nuclear weapons program has created an amazing opportunity to put to rest their troubled past relations. A new partnership has emerged that is not only achieving both increased security and greater economic gains for each nation, but has the potential for reshaping the power structure in Asia. India can better expand its economic growth to develop a robust middle class, and improve its security situation by enacting more aggressive trade reforms, working closely with partners in the U.S. energy and defense sectors, and relaxing stringent governmental controls over key areas of industry. Additionally, through closer cooperation with the U.S., India can ensure continued economic growth, modernize its already capable military, facilitating their emergence as the regional leader and the dominate influence in Asia. As such, India will be well postured to support the democratic principles and values, effectively countering China's growing influence in this critical region.
