With the nuclearization of the Indian subcontinent, Indo-Pakistani
crisis behavior has acquired a deadly significance. The past two
decades have witnessed no fewer than six crises against the
backdrop of a vigorous nuclear arms race. Except for the Kargil war
of 1998-9, all these events were resolved peacefully. Nuclear war
was avoided despite bitter mistrust, everyday tensions, an
intractable political conflict over Kashmir, three wars, and the
steady refinement of each side's nuclear capabilities. Sumit
Ganguly and Devin T. Hagerty carefully analyze each crisis,
reviewing the Indian and Pakistani domestic political systems and
key decisions during the relevant period. This lucid and
comprehensive study of the two nations' crisis behavior in the
nuclear age is the first work on Indo-Pakistani relations to take
systematic account of the role played by the United States in South
Asia's security dynamics over the past two decades in the context
of unipolarization, and formulates a blueprint for American policy
toward a more positive and productive India-Pakistan relationship.
