"This is a dual-regime analysis covering both the cold war and the post-Soviet periods. Attitudinal manifestations on India's conflicts with Pakistan, Portugal and China, range from perceptions of Stalin and Khrushchev to those of Yeltsin. It focuses on the geopolitical, strategic, domestic and ideological compulsions of external policy and positions. " The book probes the impact of regime transformation--from the Soviet Union to Russia--on Moscow's foreign policy premises. What were post-Soviet Russia's attitudes towards India and particularly, on the proxy war in Kashmir? Interwoven into the study are conceptual delineations related to power status, image projection and interest convergence, which transcend cold-war/post-Soviet boundaries." 270 pp.
