This book gives readers an in-depth and up-to-date account of
India's external and internal threats in a deteriorating global
security environment. It shows that while partnerships with some
countries have strengthened, anxieties persist with others such as
China and Pakistan. Similarly, India has not been able to cope with
the challenges of internal security emerging from violence in
Kashmir, insurgency in the north-east, to mention a few. Problems
of global terrorism and global warming stare us in the face.
Tensions between major powers, threats and counter-threats between
major and middle powers, and international hotspots like Georgia
and Afghanistan remind us that there is intense competition for
strategic space. India as an upcoming power is treading its path
carefully and is developing meaningful partnerships with all major
powers. China's reluctance to proceed further in resolving the
boundary dispute with India, its reported incursions on the borders
and its rapid military modernisation has caused anxiety in India.
India is nevertheless upgrading its military capability to meet any
Chinese threat. Pakistan's lack of adequate action in punishing
those responsible for the 26/11 Mumbai terrorist attack and its
reluctance to destroy the infrastructure of terrorism in Pakistan
has put a question mark on the future of India Pakistan relations.
These and various other threats and challenges are discussed in
this volume, latest in a unique series with contributions from
academics, political commentators and military personnel.
