Hardcover. Condizione: New. Condizione sovraccoperta: New. 1st Edition. The contemporary look east policy, conceived conceptualized and implemented in the early 1990s first by former Prime Minister P.V. Narasimha Rao in the immediate aftermath of the end of the cold war and in the context of the extraordinary domestic economic challenges confronting the country, had its won contextual rationale, imperative and compulsion. Since then, in the last nearly two decades, it has evolved and acquired its own momentum and arguably critical mass to give it a new and greater meaning, relevance, depth and content in the changing context of geo-politics and globalization. Today, many believe, it is a defining partnership among some of the most dynamic and geo-strategically important countries of the world, including those which are the future economic power houses of the Asia Pacific impacting not only regional but global equations. The compilation of essays in this volume written by eminent diplomats who as practitioners and propagators helped shape and give direction to the look east policy, contains incisive and in-depth candid accounts of the policy and its evolving complexion.

Hardcover. Condizione: New. Condizione sovraccoperta: New. 1st Edition. India's Asia-pacific engagement, now in its third decade, has become an integral and irreversible plank of our foreign policy. This volume seeks to provide a new and unique perspective to the discourse on the evolving Look East Policy, updating, assessing, critically evaluating and analyzing developments beyond its first two decades and looking into the impulses and imperatives of India's growing and deepening engagement with the larger and rapidly changing geo-political space of the Asia-Pacific region, which some now have begun to describe as the Indo-Pacific. The essays in this compilation, written by former practitioners and some eminent experts, cover various aspects of our evolving engagement, going beyond the ASEAN geo political space and the hitherto traditional areas of focus, importantly now covering strategic, security, political, economic, cultural and the diaspora aspects of our enlarged engagement, also suggesting a road map and specific next steps for enduring partnership in the coming decade. The personal insights, analysis and candid perspectives offered by the contributors makes this volume unique and one of its kind. (jacket).
