Description
OXFORD Indias Foreign Policy Retrospect And Prospect 2011 Edition by SRIVASTAVA
This book provides a fairly comprehensive account of the evolution of India's foreign policy from 1947 to the present day. It is organized primarily in the form of India's relations with its neighbours and with key states in the global order. All the chapters in this volume utilize the level of analysis approach, a well-established conceptual scheme in the study of international politics in organizing the substantive cases. They provide crisp and lucid accounts of its developments in various parts of the world. The book is significant because there are no other viable edited volumes on the evolution of Indian foreign policy. Each chapter follows a common conceptual framework using the level of analysis approach. This framework looks at the evolution of India's foreign policy from the standpoints of systemic, national, and decision-making perspectives.Sumit Ganguly is Rabindranath Tagore Chair of Indian Cultures and Civilizations and Professor of Political Science, Indiana University, Bloomington.
