Download or read book Insecurity Communities of South Asia and the Middle East written by Majid Sharifi and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2020-11-10 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book critically examines how US foreign policy has produced a regional regime of instability and insecurity in South Asia and the Middle East. It focuses on three interconnected zones of conflict—Afghanistan and Pakistan in South Asia, Iran and the Persian Gulf states, and Iraq and its neighbours. In a comprehensive historical survey, this work compares the governing behaviour of these states with that of the West, where the American foreign policy establishment has, in contrast, pushed for investing in collective security. The author studies various events throughout history such as the Taliban regime; the US-led war in Afghanistan; the Obama administration and Pakistan; the first and second Gulf wars; the Arab Spring, and the rise of ISIS to present a theoretical analysis of Washington’s consistent pursuit of multibalancing and regime change wars in the region. An important critical assessment of Western foreign policies, this book will be indispensable for students and researchers of US foreign policy, defense and security studies, strategic affairs, politics and international relations, political economy, nation-state building, identity studies, globalization studies, Middle East studies, and South Asian studies.
Download or read book Us Imperialism in South Asia and the Persian Gulf written by Sanjeev Kumar H. M. and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012-05 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study discusses how the US has managed to sustain its dominance in spite of a constantly transforming global scenario, now characterized by powerful supra national actors as the European Union and rising powers like China. It is an attempt to understand United States' security and foreign policy embedded in the doctrine of bilateralism, largely situated in the regional security complex and mainly directed towards achieving its larger global objectives. This work considers two classic examples: US engagement in the Persian Gulf region through its strategy of Dual Containment toward Iran and Iraq; and its policy of maintaining a strategic balance in South Asia through greater security interaction with Pakistan which is coupled with the attempts at shaping a defence framework cooperation arrangement with India. In both cases, the US has intervened in the unstable security complex of two regions, both of which are infested with considerable degree of intra-regional bilateral security predicaments. The US has sought to manipulate this precarious situation by enhancing the vulnerabilities of the regions to outside intervention by supporting both against each other.
Download or read book The Persian Gulf and Pacific Asia written by Christopher Michael Davidson and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A perfect storm of economic, diplomatic, and cultural concerns have brought about the Asianization of Asia, uniting the continent's many countries under a dominant framework of interests and trends. Pushing Asia's domain even further is a new and abiding relationship between Asia's three most industrialized economies and the Persian Gulf's six monoarchies. What began as a basic, twentieth-century marriage of convenience, founded on the trading of hydrocarbon, has now evolved into a complex, long-term commitment guaranteeing continuous exchange of resources and need. This bond has also strengthened the non-hydrocarbon, bilateral trade that facilitates wealth investments on both sides, building lucrative opportunities for Pacific-Asian contruction and, in China's case, its vast forces of labor. Christopher Davidson, an acclaimed expert on the Middle East's rapidly changing economy, details the eastern and western factors that have brought Asia and the Gulf closer together. Athough this relationship has yet to include military arrangements, evidence suggests that the two regions have bolstered other noneconomic ties.Davidson unravels the confusing links between these emerging powers and shows how their unique economic, political, geographical, and cultural identities both strengthen and threaten their future partnership.
Download or read book Security Community in the Persian Gulf and South Asian States written by Majid Sharifi and published by Bloomsbury Academic. This book was released on 2014-05 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work focuses on the Persian Gulf and South Asian States (PGSAS), including Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran, and The Gulf Cooperation Council States. Recognized as the site for the rise of radical Islam, terrorism, inter-state wars, nuclear proliferation, and civil wars, the region has become a threat to global security. Yet, there still lacks an grand strategy to build a regional security community in the region, which should be treated as a political unit in need of stable and interdependent alliance. After discussing the concept of security community, the authors investigate the role of international institutions and U.S. policies in the (in)security of the region. It argues that the U.S. should invest in creating a security community in the region as it did in post War Europe, concluding that this would be a feasible and practical solution to current insecurity not only in the region but also in the world. Written by experts, this timely work will appeal to anyone studying issues of international security as well as the politics of South Asia and the Gulf States.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines the increasing involvement, since the end of the Cold War, of the United States in the security of the Persian Gulf and South Asian states (PGSAS). By comparing policy objectives with outcomes, the project finds that U.S. policy requires strategic altruism rather than divide-and-conquer realism, because the unintended consequences of the U.S.'s approach have been the creation of a pervasive insecurity regime--not only for the region, but also for the United States. The authors examine the specific policy areas of military security, economics and development, and democracy and human rights, and suggest that the needs to U.S. reconceptualise its grand strategy for the region as a security community, with the region's specific characteristics carefully considered. Written by experts, this timely work will appeal to anyone studying international security and foreign policy, as well as the politics of South Asia and the Gulf States.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As we move towards a world without superpowers, the dynamics within and between regions are of growing significance.

It employs both constructivist and realist approaches, seeking to understand how power and social processes influence the political and security linkages between these regions.
