This book provides a synoptic view of the Indian Ocean and maritime
security in its contested waters. Using a historical approach, it
reveals vital links to events in the present day. The volume:
Highlights the competition between major Asian powers to control
the 'String of Pearls' - a reference to the Chinese attempts at
controlling the Indian Ocean periphery. Shows that cooperation
amongst the major powers of the region could abate the threat of
the potential of conflict becoming global and inviting external
intervention. Discusses India's Look-East policy and the deepening
relation between India and the Association of Southeast Asian
Nations (ASEAN). Argues for the need of Indian Ocean states and
particularly the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation
(SAARC) members of the Indian Ocean Rim Association (IORA) to look
afresh at their political and security issues and common interests.
Suggests measures for evolving a robust mechanism of maintaining
the Indian Ocean as a sustainable zone of commerce, energy,
security and peace rather than threat. A major contribution on a
critical area in Asian geopolitics, this volume will be useful to
scholars and researchers of international relations, politics,
defence studies and maritime security studies, along with strategic
affairs experts and think tanks.

Current policy or scholarly literature on sustainable development
in India has been missing a vital interdisciplinary integrated link
covering four areas of knowledge: law, economics, science, and
politics. This gap has contributed to an incomplete understanding
of the whole issue and, in turn, has added resulted in
inappropriate and often unrealistic instruments being used to
achieve the lofty ideals of sustainable development. This edited
volume brings together a scholarly analysis of interdisciplinary
approaches and perspectives to the sustainable development agenda
and debates in India. The theoretical and empirical analyses
conducted by the contributors create more questions than answers,
yet an integrated whole emerging shows the future directions which
will shape the policy and theoretical debates on sustainable
development.
