Stephen Philip Cohen can rightly be called the doyen of South Asian
security analysis, especially traditional security concerns in the
region and advocacy on US foreign policy. The contributors to the
volume have all, at different at different points in time, been
Cohen's students, and are now well-known scholars in their own
right. Broadly dividing Cohen's work into categories, the
contributors deal with the following issues: how security is
understood and how important strategic relationships are framed
approaches to and choices made in the areas of military structure,
arms production, and investment in science and technology how and
why civil society groups are mobilized towards political
ends-specifically looking at ethnic mobilization in diaspora
communities, non-official initiatives for peace in South Asia, and
the role of state and non-state actors in disaster management the
role of the army. The essays reflect a view of security as
something people choose to make for themselves through an exercise
of agency that is rooted in the realm of ideas.
