As India confronts myriad and formidable challenges to its economic well-being and security, it has to synergise its genius and resources not only for its survival and sustenance but to be counted in the comity of nations where, by any standards, it deserves a seat on the global high table. Securing India's Rise, edited by one of India's leading military experts, Lt General Kamal Davar, is a labour of love and dedication to the glory of India in its march towards self-realisation as a nation not only for itself but to contribute towards global peace and harmony. Nineteen eminent Indians from diverse fields have contributed to this volume focusing on their areas of expertise-the lessons from each, if implemented, will contribute to ensuring India's inevitable rise. A path-breaking anthology, this is a must-read for intellectuals and those in the establishment, citizens, especially the youth, and all those who believe that India's rise has to be secured for itself and the good of the region and the world.

Book The Rise of the Indian Navy

Download or read book The Rise of the Indian Navy written by Harsh V. Pant and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-03 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Indian Navy has gradually emerged as an indispensable tool of Indian diplomacy in recent years, making it imperative for Indian policy-makers and naval thinkers to think anew the role of the nation’s naval forces in Indian strategy. There is a long tradition in India of viewing the maritime dimension of security as central to the nation’s strategic priorities. With India's economic rise, India is trying to bring that focus back, making its navy integral to national grand strategy. This volume is the first full-length examination of the myriad issues that have emerged out of the recent rise of Indian naval power.

  • Author : Johannes Plagemann
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2020-01-17
  • ISBN : 019099021X
  • Pages : 252 pages

Download or read book India Rising written by Johannes Plagemann and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-01-17 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India Rising unpacks the country’s approach to global governance by systematically considering three potential factors—ideas, interests, and institutions—that have an impact on India’s foreign policy making. The editors and contributors of this volume examine possible explanations for India’s varying compliance with global regimes and its contributions to the development and change of those regimes in areas such as nuclear non-proliferation, maritime security, counter-terrorism, cyber-governance, democracy promotion, climate change, and trade policy. The book also discusses how India is globally perceived in differing ways: as a hub of diplomatic interaction and as a difficult negotiator with a frequently inflexible stance. Looking at the prime ministerial years of Manmohan Singh and Narendra Modi’s first term, it examines India’s often ambivalent approach to global governance and foreign policy making in the backdrop of its image as a rising global power. It thus seeks to answer the primary question: What drives rising India’s conduct on the world stage?

Book Securing India in the Cyber Era

Download or read book Securing India in the Cyber Era written by Sameer Patil and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2021-09-12 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the geopolitics of the global cyber space to analyse India’s cyber security landscape. As conflicts go more online, nation-states are manipulating the cyber space to exploit each other’s dependence on information, communication and digital technologies. All the major powers have dedicated cyber units to breach computer networks, harvest sensitive data and proprietary information, and disrupt critical national infrastructure operations. This volume reviews threats to Indian computer networks, analyses the country’s policy responses to these threats, and suggests comprehensive measures to build resilience in the system. India constitutes the second largest internet user base in the world, and this expansion of the user base also saw an accompanying rise in cyber crimes. The book discusses how the country can protect this user base, the data-dependent critical infrastructure, build resilient digital payment systems, and answer the challenges of the dark net. It also explores India’s cyber diplomacy, as an emerging economy with a large IT industry and a well-established technological base. Topical and lucid, this book as part of The Gateway House Guide to India in the 2020s series, will be of interest to scholars and researchers of cyber security, digital diplomacy, foreign policy, international relations, geopolitics, strategic affairs, defence studies, South Asian politics and international politics.

Book India s Rise as an Asian Power

Download or read book India s Rise as an Asian Power written by A. D. D. Gordon and published by Georgetown University Press. This book was released on 2014-08-05 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India’s Rise as an Asian Power examines India’s rise to power and the obstacles it faces in the context of domestic governance and security, relationships and security issues with its South Asian neighbors, and international relations in the wider Asian region. Instead of a straight-line projection based on traditional measures of power such as population size, economic growth rates, and military spending, Sandy Gordon’s nuanced view of India’s rise focuses on the need of any rising power to develop the means to deal with challenges in its domestic, neighborhood (South Asia), and regional (continental) spheres. Terrorism, insurgency, border disputes, and water conflict and shortages are examples of some of India’s domestic and regional challenges. Gordon argues that before it can assume the mantle of a genuine Asian power or world power, India must improve its governance and security; otherwise, its economic growth and human development will continue to be hindered and its vulnerabilities may be exploited by competitors in its South Asian neighborhood or the wider region. This book will appeal to students and scholars of India and South Asia, security studies, foreign policy, and comparative politics, as well as country and regional specialists.

  • Release : 2013
  • ISBN : 9781612345369
  • Pages : 0 pages

Download or read book India s Rise written by Bharat Karnad and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In November 2010, President Barack Obama claimed during his state visit to India that India has "already emerged" as a great power. His view is shared by many world leaders who believe that India's impressive economic and industrial growth and potential, its professional and modernizing military, its rapidly increasing ties with the United States and other armed forces in the extended region, and its expanding soft power presence in the world (information technology prowess, Bollywood films and music) are evidence of the country's inevitable rise.However, there is more to India's story than unimpeded forward progress, as Bharat Karnad explains in "India's Rise." Based on extensive interviews with civilian and military policymakers, this book provides a sobering examination of the country's obvious deficits in hard power capabilities, its overly bureaucratized system of government, and other systemic constraints that are exacerbated by policy infirmities, unacceptable levels of poverty, political and social fragmentation, corruption, and conspicuously poor governance.Karnad maintains that India must make radical improvements in addressing those deficits, capitalize on opportunities economically to co-opt the neighboring states and forge security relationships with countries in the Indo-Pacific region, and deliver good governance at the grassroots. IfIndia follows Karnad's recommendations, it may well achieve its aspirations on the world stage."

Book India   s National Security

Download or read book India s National Security written by Satish Kumar and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global security environment in the last five years has been characterised by a state of ‘no war, no peace’ among major powers, resulting in a state of uncertainty about their national security objectives. For instance, the US has been concerned about the attitudes of Iran, Russia, North Korea, China, and others, and yet did not expect a direct military conflict with them. On the other hand, China has expanded its naval strategy from a mere ‘off-shore defence’ to ‘open seas protection’ and has called for both ‘defence and offence’ instead of merely ‘territorial air defence’, thereby indicating preparedness for the possibility of a military confrontation. The major powers have been thus groping for suitable responses to their threat perceptions. It is in this kind of a complex and confusing international environment that India, as a rising power, has been called upon to wade through its strategic partnerships with major powers and nurture friendships with various Asian and African countries. This sixteenth volume of India’s National Security Annual Review offers indispensable information and evaluation on matters pertaining to national security. It undertakes a thorough analysis of the trends to provide a backdrop to India’s engagement with various countries. The volume also discusses persisting threats from China and Pakistan. With contributions from experts from the fields of diplomacy, academia, and civil and military services, the book will be one of the most dependable sources of analyses for scholars of international relations, foreign policy, defence and strategic studies, and political science, and practitioners alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on various aspects of maritime security of India. Starting with the changing dimensions of national security, it addresses the issues such as non-traditional threats to security, the threat posed by non state actors, the causes of insecurity and also the imperatives of tackling the human security challenges. The need for a comprehensive change in India's security policy is well exposed and certain policy prescriptions are also given. The oceans are generally meant for better inaction among nations, especially in the era of accelerated pace of globalization. With regard to the coastal security of India the role of coastal community is significant. The needs for inculcating awareness among the coastal community on coastal security matters as well as infrastructure development along the coastal area are also emphasized. It is very important to look into the basic problems of coastal people as they face many human security challenges. When we look into the coastal security a convergence of the national security concerns and human security concerns is visible. The overall development of the coastal area would lead to better human security and better human security would result in enlisting the support of the coastal community to ensure national security programme, especially the coastal security. In short, coastal security is not only about protecting the coastal terrain and territorial waters from direct attacks by the state actors or non state actors, but also safeguarding the interests of all stake holders.
