India today matters, and thus its foreign policy matters at the global level. Drawing primarily and extensively on a wide range of Indian views, Malone seeks to explain what issues and partners most command Indian attention and why, and what shape its foreign policy could (and sometimes should) take in the years ahead.

Produktbeschreibung
India today matters, and thus its foreign policy matters at the global level. Drawing primarily and extensively on a wide range of Indian views, Malone seeks to explain what issues and partners most command Indian attention and why, and what shape its foreign policy could (and sometimes should) take in the years ahead.
India today looms large globally, where it hardly loomed at all twenty years ago. It is likely to be a key global actor throughout the twenty-first century and could well emerge soon as one of the top five global powers. Does the Elephant Dance? seeks to survey the main features of Indian foreign policy. It identifies elements of Indian history relevant to the topic; examines the role therein of domestic politics and internal and external security challenges, and of domestic and international economic factors; and in successive chapters delves into the specifics of India's policy within its South Asian neighbourhood, and with respect to China, the USA, West Asia (the Middle East), East Asia, Europe and Russia, and multilateral diplomacy. It also touches on Indian ties to Africa and Latin America and the Caribbean. India's "soft power," the role of migration in its policy, and other cross-cutting issues are analyzed, as is the role and approach of several categories of foreign policy actors in India. Substantive conclusions close out the volume, and touch, inter alia, on the absence of an organizing framework for Indian foreign policy.

Rezensionen
[David M. Malone] has produced a copiously annotated book that is so beautifully organised and written that his scholarship wears lightly and never impinges upon the story he tells. Alan Mackie, Asian Affairs
