Global India: the pursuit of influence and status /
Chris Ogden (ed.)
- Oxon: Routledge, 2023.
- xvii, 260 p.; 30 cm. PB
"India's contemporary rise to prominence will significantly impact upon geopolitics in the coming decades and is a key pillar in the widely anticipated Asian 21st century. As India's stature continues to increase across Asia and the world, appreciating which interests and principles structure her international interaction has never been more important. Focusing upon the country's contemporary emergence as an economic, military and now diplomatic powerhouse, this Edited Book rigorously and informatively sets out the core - and wide-ranging - elements, relationships and challenges essential to conceptualising and analysing this rise. These factors relate not only to consolidating India's pre-eminence within South Asia - as the foundation of its great power claims - but also how it interacts with the world's other great powers in the guise of China, Japan, Russia, France and the United States, and how New Delhi is able to articulate its global vision on the world stage. Prestige, rivalry and leadership permeate these interactions, especially as India asserts its influence and interests concerning issues ranging from the functioning of trade in South Asia, handling border disputes and conceiving of the Indian Ocean Region to climate policy, foreign aid and managing the Covid-19 pandemic. India's future stature will depend on how it deals with these and other concerns" -- Provided by publisher
