- Summary:
- This volume offers an understanding of Asia in the new millennium - the nature of its politics and governance, the reasons for its insecurity, its intrinsic strengths and weaknesses, the available policy options, and the role of India as a key player.
- Among the many issues discussed are: new foreign policy options available to India; the security configurations that may emerge in the Asia-Pacific region and their implications for India; Pakistan's strategic policies; the United States' strategy of cultivating relations with Japan, China and India to prevent the rise of anti-American power; the positive role of China, India and Iran in ensuring stability in Central Asia; the need for the Asian states to guarantee equity and justice for women; and the need for India to forge economic ties with Afghanistan and the Central Asian region.
