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.
