This volume is a comprehensive study of the challenges and
opportunities facing the BIMSTEC, The Bay of Bengal Initiative for
Multi-Sectoral Technical and Economic Cooperation. BIMSTEC was
established to promote economic cooperation among rising economic
powers in South and Southeast Asia, but after years of stagnation
the need for renewed regional commitment is starker than ever. The
book studies the BIMSTEC's present status and highlights the ways
in which the organisation can be rejuvenated to forge a stronger
Bay of Bengal community. It looks at key themes such as the
challenges to regional integration, India's "Look East" and
Thailand's "Look West" policies, transport connectivity and tourism
within the BIMSTEC and the aspirations of various member countries.
It also examines BIMSTEC's approach towards climate change,
disaster management and rehabilitation. A timely contribution, this
volume will be useful for scholars and researchers of international
relations, South Asian studies, foreign policy, diplomacy,
Southeast Asian studies, defence and strategic affairs, maritime
studies, international trade, regional cooperation and political
studies.

BIMSTEC (Bay of Bengal Initiative for Multi-Sectoral Technical and
Economic Cooperation) represents one of the most diverse regions of
the world. Providing a unique link between South Asia and Southeast
Asia, it brings together 1.5 billion people and a combined GDP of
$2.7 trillion. This volume focuses on issues related to
connectivity, commerce, and security challenges facing BIMSTEC. It
studies BIMSTEC's relevance as an inter-governmental organization
in the changing international milieu. The volume discusses the
necessity of connectivity to enhance Bay solidarity and analyses
the political, strategic and security concerns that restrain
commercial connectivity. It also looks at the Bay of Bengal region
as a zone of competition-and possible collaboration-between the
littoral countries and major powers involved in the region.

for scholars and researchers of international relations, South
Asian studies, foreign policy, diplomacy, Southeast Asian studies,
defence and strategic affairs, maritime studies, international
trade, regional cooperation, and political studies.
