Hardbound. Zustand: As New. New. South Asia with its immense human security deficit compounded by inter state tensions and the consequent diversion of human and financial resources from people's needs to states preferences urgently requires a change in mindset. When the peoples of the region obtained independence from colonial domination human security was the overarching norm. The great hope was that freedom would bring them broad based security and opportunities for self development. Some six decades later those hopes remain unrealized to a large degree. While large numbers of people remain mired in poverty and insecurity the political orientation of elites has slid into an overwhelming preoccupation with state security. This volume is an attempt to redress the balance. Its thrust is to bring human security back to centre stage and to highlight the problems and needs of the people of the subcontinent. This book is the latest in a series of the work undertaken by the Institute of Peace and Conflict Studies (IPCS) on alterative approaches to security and second on the subject of human security. 157 pp.…

In the new millennium there is a growing realization that the concept of security can no longer be confined to the narrow landscape of the military-strategic concerns of the state The focus is increasingly shifting to â??human security which centers on ordinary people and their security needs This conception encompasses a broad and comprehensive realm that includes military as well as economic political environmental and cultural security In the age of globalisation political boundaries count for little the pursuit of security is affected by linkages between the local the national and the global The state is still central but is both art of the problem and part of the solution It is at once the biggest violator of human security and the primary instrument for the attainment of a secure existence for its citizens The extent to which the state attends to peoples security needs ultimately depends on its accountability to the public which in turn depends on the effective functioning of democracyIn South Asia the expanded people-centric conception of security is gradually finding voice Yet the older elitist notion of security remains well entrenched within the power structure of state and society In this volume eminent scholars from the region break out of the mould and draw attention to the diverse facets of security from the standpoint of the average South Asian man woman and child They explore vital security issues relating to economic well-being ethnic identity religion gender and political legitimacy In doing so they seek a more comprehensive and democratic basis for the understanding of security in the regionRajesh M Basrur obtained his MA and M Phil in History from University of Delhi and MA and Ph D in Politics from University of Bombay now Mumbai India and has taught in both disciplines in Mumbai Ha has been a Shastri fellow at Simon Fraser University and a Fulbright fellow at the University of Illinois at Urban Champaign He is currently Director of the Centre for Global Studies an independent research institution at Mumbai 264 pp.…

Zustand: Very Good. Overall, very good condition. China and East Asian Strategic Dynamics: the Shaping of a New Regional Order, edited by Mingjiang Li and Dongmin Lee, examines how China's remarkable economic growth and its proactive diplomatic efforts in recent years have not only shored up its importance in global issues, but also induced a transformation of the strategic dynamics in East Asia. The authors argue that major power relations in the region appear to be driven by some new momentum along with the changing international environment. The contributors of this edited volume are well-known scholars in their areas of specialty, and the book is divided into five parts. The first part discusses China's soft and hard power in East Asia. The second examines China and the strategic interactions between major powers; this particular section is devoted to discussion on the strategic responses of the major regional powers,Äïthe United States, Japan, Korea, India and ASEAN,Äïto China's rise. Part three focuses on China's strategic approach to East Asian regionalism. Of particular note are China's active leadership role in institution-building efforts, strategic calculations, and preference for an informal approach. The fourth section analyzes the Cross-Taiwan Strait relations and their impact on both China and East Asia. The final section of China and East Asian Strategic Dynamics addresses the issue of China and maritime order in East Asia. China and East Asian Strategic Dynamics: the Shaping of a New Regional Order, edited by Mingjiang Li and Dongmin Lee, is a pioneering work. Given that the rise of China is a prominent issue in politics and economics worldwide, this edited collection is essential for a wide audience of policy-makers, academics, and students alike.…

Soft cover. Zustand: New. Contents: Preface. 1. Rising India and Policy Drift. Part I: Material Constraints. 2. The India-US Nuclear Agreement. 3. India and Sri Lanka's Civil War. Part II: Responsibility Deficits. 4. Nuclear Strategy. 5. Cross-Border Terrorism. 6. Considerations for Policy and Theory. References. Index. One of the most important developments in today's changing international system is the emergence of India as a rising power. However, Rajesh Basrur finds that India is beset by serious domestic constraints. Subcontinental Drift explains why India's foreign policy is often characterized by multiple hesitations, delays and diversions that may ultimately hamper its growth to power. Basrur analyzes the concept of 'policy drift' through the lens of neoclassical realist theory to explain why this drift occurs so regularly in Indian foreign policy and how it affects India's quest for major power status. Using four casesthe India-US strategic partnership, India-Sri Lanka relations, India's nuclear strategy, and crossborder terrorismBasrur identifies two basic explanations for India's indecision on critical issues, one material, the other ethical. Basrur develops a fresh theoretical basis for understanding the relationship between India's foreign and domestic policies and introduces a series of theoretical refinements to neoclassical realism. Subcontinental Drift also provides advice on how policy makers might lower the costs of policy drift. This innovative analysis is essential to understanding the constraints around India's foreign and domestic security decisions and how they will impact its rise. This book will be of interest to scholars of political science, international relations (including Indian foreign policy), ethics, terrorism studies and strategic studies.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - How domestic constraints hamper India's foreign policy and its potential as a superpowerOne of the most important developments in today's changing international system is the emergence of India as a rising power. However, Rajesh Basrur finds that India is hobbled by serious domestic constraints. Subcontinental Drift explains why India's foreign policy is often characterized by multiple hesitations, delays, and diversions that may ultimately hamper its rise. Basrur analyzes the concept of policy drift through the lens of neoclassical realist theory to reveal why this drift occurs so regularly in Indian foreign policy and how it affects India's quest for major power status. Using four cases--the India-US strategic partnership, India-Sri Lanka relations, India's nuclear strategy, and crossborder terrorism--Basrur identifies two basic explanations for India's indecision on critical issues. The first, involuntary drift, is related to the distribution of domestic material power, while the second, voluntary drift, is produced by a responsibility deficit. Basrur develops a fresh theoretical basis for understanding the relationship between India's foreign and domestic policies and introduces a series of theoretical refinements to neoclassical realism. Subcontinental Drift also provides advice on how policy makers might lower the costs of policy drift. This innovative analysis is essential to understanding the constraints around India's foreign and domestic security decisions and how they will affect its rise.…
