Aggiungi al carrelloPaperback. Condizione: As New. New. Contents Foreword. Acknowledgements. Preface. 1. Introduction. 2. Dimensions of ULFA Terrorism in Assam. 3. Responses to ULFA. 4. Conclusion and recommendations. Decades of illegal migration from erstwhile East Pakistan later Bangladesh into Assam eventually led to the bloody Anti Foreigner Ag…itation in 1983. Initiated by the All Assam Students Union (AASU) it produced a political party called the Asom Gana Praishad (AGP) and an armed wing called the United Liberation Front of Assom (ULFA) which by the late 1980s had penetrated all departments of the state government and developed into a deadly menace extorting money and killing with impunity. In Late November 1990 when President's Rule was promulgated and the army launched against it its boss Paresh Barua and close cohorts fled to Bangladesh thereby betraying that very cause. Soon they came under the influence of Pakistan's Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) stationed in Bangladesh and became conduits for the ISI to enter India's North East (NE) and establish contacts with other violent groups in that region. ULFA became an effective tool of the ISI pursuing its aim of inducting and settling illegal Bangladeshi migrants in various parts into Assam raising new madarassas and controlling old ones and trying to convert ethnic Assamese Muslims to fundamentalism creating communal tension circulating fake Indian currency trafficking arms and narcotics sabotaging installations particularly rail and oil and public services carrying out assassinations and massacres and generally spreading terror. Whenever ULFA felt the heat of army operations its oft repeated ploy was to cry out for ceasefire and negotiations only to get a respite and re organise itself. After 9/11 pressed by the US to dismantle terrorist tanzeems Pakistan sent some elements to Bangladesh and added more after its peace process with India began in early 2004 thereby upping the ante in India's NE. By 2008 with sustained operations depleting ULFA's ranks and with the Assamese tap for reinforcements going dry owing to AASU's alarm bells about a major demographic shift Barua began a recruitment drive in Bangladesh which fetched a good response from the Harkat ul Jehad i Islami (HuJI Ba) who has spread to various parts of Assam and even Tripura launching Bomb attacks including the October 30 2008 serial blasts in four districts. 82 pp.

Military intervention and peacekeeping. 5. Terrorism new challenges to UN peacekeeping. 6. Conflict prevention to peace building. 7. T…rend analysis future of UN peace operations. Bibliography. Index. Security and the UN are traditionally and inextricably linked. Challenges of 21 century are likely to be oriented towards conflicts within states and also increasingly involve non state actors such as terrorists or national liberation movements. It is inevitable that the security challenges and the challenges of the 21 century will impact on the conduct of the peace operations. The peacekeepers are now expected to perform wide ranging roles and may have to resort to force more aggressively both in self defence and to bring back the derailed peace process. Military intervention in sovereign states will continue to take place in future. What is important is the application of the fundamental principles of the UN in mounting the operations. Consent impartiality and minimum force influence any peace operation undertaken by the UN or authorised by the UN. The need of the hour is to build on the existing expertise and to create foolproof conditions to ensure that this expertise is made available just in time at just the right place. The armed forces or for that matter security forces of the member states of the UN have a rich experience of over five decades in undertaking peacekeeping operations on behalf of the UN. Thus the emerging challenges to peace operations and the corresponding new trends in operations need to be constantly analysed and validated. This book makes an attempt to look into the evolving role of peace operations in the context of changing security scenario which includes the role of peacekeepers in conflict resolution analysis of some of the past UN peace operations in Africa Europe and South East Asia military intervention in foreign countries effect of new threat of terrorism on peace operations role of security forces in the post conflict peace building a trend analysis of the current operations and the main inadequacies of the UN peace operations. 212 pp.

The book South Asia Dynamics of Politics Economy and Security is the outcome of a seminar on conflict and cooperation in South Asia organised by the Department of Political Science University of Jammu Jammu. Numerous scholars from different parts of the country and Nepal attended the seminar and enriched the interactive debate with their comments and observation. South Asia has witnessed cataclysmic changes in internal and external politics which have initiated the process of political economic and social transformation in the region. The structures of governance are being diversified and differentiated yet governance is the least priority. There is an economic transition in the South Asian region. Since 1990s the majority of South Asian countries have introduced globalisation as a measure to address their economic crisis by way of reducing poverty and thus improving governance. Globalisation has accelerated the process of growth but the development is still a mirage the impact of globalisation has not been accompanied by reduction in poverty or improvement in human development through the formation of social capital. The region is suffering from the syndrome of insecurity. Threats to their security are not only from within but also from outside the region. These states are confronted by the conventional and non conventional threats. The non conventional security threats like poverty governance water food energy and environmental security have become more pronounced whereas the hard and undemarcated borders have remained the major source of conflict in the region. The above are some of the issues debated on in great detail which would be of immense use to scholars studying South Asia Departments of Politics and Defence as well as policy makers who will benefit vastly from this valuable collection by eminent specialists. 408 pp.

Panchen Lama. 8. Chronology of events in Tibet. 9. Strategic importance of Tibet. 10. Legal status of Tibet. 11. The road map. Annexur…es. Tibetan Conundrum is a definitive and wide ranging account of the Tibetan nation and civilisation. Nowhere could it be traced that Tibet was ever a part of China before it was invaded in 1950 51 by the People's liberation Army. Nor could it be ascertained how and when it became part of China as claimed by the people's Republic of China. The book is a reminder to the democratic world that here is a nation which has perished as a result of a military aggression and its civilisation is at the verge of extinction. Its peace loving and benign Buddhist people in exile and in Tibet are a speechless lot witnessing the disappearance of their homeland and unique civilisation. In the aftermath of aggression in 1950 51 and signing of the 17 point agreement Tibet became an integral part of China with a promise of internal autonomy. In 1956 riots culminated in repression and flight of the Dalai Lama to India in 1959. The book includes chronology of events physiology political boundaries assessed mineral resources hydrology demography assessed deployment of Chinese weapons of mass destruction air fields and other military infrastructure in Tibet. There are annexure of international treaties since ninth century AD between Tibet and other sovereign states supporting the text in addition to other factual documents and statements. The text is also supported by maps and rare pictures. 232 pp.

Srinivas. The dawn of the new millennium started to shed light on the world affairs making it clear under the new brightness what many people had been arguing for long that the twenty first century was going to be an Asian century and the rise of China and India would be a major factor in this process. This would inevitably present new challenges and opportunities. At the same time as a consequence of technological changes as well as geopolitical imperatives not to talk of nuclear weapons spread military power has reached a paradoxical position of having become far more capable and effective at one level while it also appears to be less usable in traditional ways. The complexities arising of these paradoxes require continuing and deeper study and understanding of the development related defence and military power. The Asian continent is currently experiencing numerous wars and armed conflicts and competition for energy resources is accelerating while the extremist religion driven terrorism shows no sign of abating or being brought under control. Fragility of many of Asian states poses serious challenges to future peace and security. Both the rising powers China and India require a prolonged period of peace to devote their full energies to human development of their huge population and others need peace and security to progress toward a better life for their people. This requires deeper understanding of key issues affecting peace and security is Asia where defence and military factors remain the ultimate arbiters of human affairs. This volume a resource base for the professional and the general reader is the forerunner of the series of annual publication of the centre for Air Power Studies under this title which aims to fill a critical information and knowledge gap in current strategic literature dealing with military strategy defence policies and trends in military capabilities that impact countries in Asia. In particular it covers some of the important areas that affect Asian countries and the developments in Asian Countries with a focus on China India and Pakistan to provide the requisite regional balance. 280 pp.

Invest to prevent disaster potential benefits and limitations of micro insurance as a risk transfer mechanism for developing countries/Reinhard Mechler and Joanne Linnerooth Bayer. Substantial evidence is available from across the globe that micro finance products and services have the potential to empower the poor particularly the poor women in the rural areas in acquiring skill confidence and capacity to undertake activities that can significantly lift them above the poverty line. There is also evidence that micro credit groups of the poor have done better in coping with natural disaster although disasters like the Indian Ocean Tsunami of December 2004 badly crippled their activities. In the immediate post disaster phase when relief and rehabilitation assistance pours in micro finance plays a marginal role but when the supply of dole dries up the poor have to fend for themselves. In this critical phase of recovery micro finance assumes even greater importance in supplementing other efforts for livelihood restoration and sustainable development. This volume which draws from the contributions in an international workshop in Delhi during 2005 would be an important addition to the very limited literature available on the subject. 226 pp.

Examining space based options for national power. 8. Proposed space road map for fulfilling defence requirements. 9. Leaders for managing future space capabilities. Utilisation of space for a nation's economic and social well being has been acquiring increasing importance over the past five decades. At the same time the use of space for military purposes started to develop rapidly so much so that it began to have a profound impact on every aspect of warfare on ground at sea and in the air. The more recent wars in fact have led to the conclusion that future warfare is going to be controlled prosecuted and dominated with the help of space capabilities. It is not surprising therefore that ever since space based and/or space enabled military capabilities started to impact warfare demonstrably especially in recent wars countries started to focus increasingly on leveraging space capabilities for military purposes. China for example has gone in for major build up of space capabilities for military purposes and Pakistan also has exhibited ambitions to exploit space for its own military. In India our space programme for good reasons has focused almost exclusively on civil uses. In the process we have built up commendable capabilities. But we have failed to pay attention to global trends of the increasing importance of space assets and capabilities for defence and military purposes. In the process not only are we denying ourselves a crucial capability but are obviously lagging far behind countries like China not to talk of developed countries even in Asia. The near total absence of literature on the subject in the country is a silent testimony to this national deficiency. This book seeks to fill the existing vacuum about the exploitation of space for our defence in future an area that will assume increasingly critical dimension in modern defence and warfare. 254 pp.

Pakistan today political military and economic trends. Index. This book is an attempt to fill a critical void in our knowledge in understanding Pakistan's military which on one side began to dominate the power structure of the country and at another sought a unique strategy to apply force for ideological and political goals. Most of the scholarship has focused on the former and literature on the latter aspect is scant. This is understandable since few countries clearly spell out their military strategy. But as the victim of Pakistan's military strategy in its myriad dimensions of building it and using it for six decades it is incumbent for us to understand its dynamics in the past to identify the pointers for the future. Pakistan army has ruled the country for the major part of six decades directly and indirectly and this has inevitably led to its military strategy shaping the contours of Pakistan's strategic culture if not its grand strategy. Its strategy has relied heavily on irregular Guerrilla Warfare conducted as a Covert War (through Guerrilla Fighters terrorists and religious extremists etc.) and external support for building military power. And nuclear weapons reinforced the confidence and flexibility of tactics in the operational role of Covert war which more often than not has been baked at a selected time by overt military offensive. This comprehensive study of Pakistan's military and its strategy to pursue ideological and political goals in the future military and foreign policy of Pakistan would be of immense value to the professionals as well as those interested in national defence and military strategy. 296 pp.

The Defence budgeting system in Indian is not linked to the medium term planning and cannot therefore play a useful role as a management tool or help rational allocation of resources. How this link is established is elucidated in this book in a meaningful way through an interactive process. Even for better expenditure control the planning and management functions have to be made an integral part of the budgeting system. Reforms need to be brought about in the process of budgeting giving adequate attention to the planning phase for establishing goals and priorities for resource allocation. An analysis of the model of responsibility budgeting through New Management Strategy is a special feature of the book. Modernization and capability building of the armed forces are important goals of resource allocation for defence. For this purpose Defence Budgeting has to be linked to Long Term Defence Plan (LTDP) or the perspective planning. Drawing up LTDP requires strategic vision and clear policy goals. Adopting a business model of decision making for capability building has been advocated in this book. The long and medium term planning need comprehensive defence review. This is because capability based approach in planning begins by asking questions regarding what do we need to do rather than what equipments we need to replace. Capabilities are to be identified based on an analysis of operational requirements and tasks to be performed as has been undertaken by many western countries in the post cold war period. Only within such a framework can defence planning and budgeting aim at achieving efficiency and effectiveness and accountability of higher management for outcome can be established. The author stresses the imperative need for conducting such a defence review for establishing a framework as a major step towards achieving an effective defence. 398 pp.

This volume the sixth in the series on India's National security annual review comes to the conclusion that India's internal security is still the area of greatest concern. However India's external security environment has definitely improved with significant strides made in relations with all major countries. This is at a time when trends at the global level are none too happy. The big powers jostled for areas of influence. The threat of WMD proliferation remained unabated. International terrorism was not countered with any durable solution. Nevertheless India's stature grew. The first section of the book reviews the security environment of India in the preceding year. Among other things it closely examines the Indo US nuclear deal because of the importance of this initiative. There is a new feature in this volume an article assessing the performance of the country in security related technologies. The security situation within Pakistan and China has also been comprehensively reviewed. A very important feature of this volume is a revised and updated National Security Index 2006. In the second section an attempt has been made to examine some of the threats and challenges which the country might face in the future. It includes articles on the military doctrines of India the implications of China's rise Pakistan's missile programme the emerging threats from Bangladesh and the internal security challenges in the Northeast and Naxalite affected areas. The series is supported by the National Security Council Secretariat (NSCS) of India and the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) even though the views expressed in the book are not necessarily those of the NSCS or the CII. 608 pp.

Recently Field Marshal SHFJ Manekshaw MC was asked who in his opinion had been the best general of the Indian army. Timmy of course he replied and expanded his remark further General Thimayya was not only a brilliant tactician and strategist but one whose vision went beyond everyone else's. The challenges he faced and his response to them were simply incomparable. It is amazing how Thimayya became an important actor in some of the major legacies of conflict of the mid 20 century Korea Kashmir the Chinese hegemony in Asia and Cyprus. He was the only Indian who commanded a brigade in World War II and later in Japan as part of the occupation force. He was the only Indian General who was invited to the Japanese surrender ceremony in Singapore and after whom a boulevard is named in Nicosia Cyprus and whose government also issued a special stamp in his memory. As Commander Punjab Boundary Force he handled the holocaust of partition and saved thousands of refugees it became such an achievement that made the famous poet Faiz Ahmed Faiz say in his praise Na Hindu Na Musalman Sirf insaniat tha Thimayya ka iman (Thimayya was neither Hindu nor Muslim. Humanity alone was his sole faith.). The war he fought in Kashmir against the British led Pakistani Army showed his strategic brilliance. As Chairman of the NNRC in Korea he earned what President Eisenhower called the respect of both sides by firmness and impartiality of his decisions in the face of conflicting pressures and moral view points. He became an instant celebrity. The biography would be of immense interest to historians defence and Thimayya admirers. 394 pp.

Index. In the midst of a deteriorating global security environment India has managed to strengthen its partnership with all major countries of the world. The essence of this partnership is defence cooperation military ties and cooperation in science and technology. India has made consistent progress in these areas with the the United States Europe and the Russian Federation. Even with China India has remained engaged in the fields of military and economic cooperation with the trade sector showing very promising results. It has further strengthened its ties with countries of East/Southeast Asia Central Asia and West/Southwest Asia particularly focusing its attention on defence cooperation energy security and trade promotion. It has taken new steps to deepen its ties with Africa and Latin America. But India is not completely free of anxieties with regard to external threats. The foremost of these is from China. The defense modernization of China aims at laying a solid foundation by 2010 making major progress by 2020 and being capable of winning informationized wars by 2050. Given this scenario China's procrastination is resolving the boundary dispute with India creates uneasiness in the Indian mind. Pakistan's proven hostility towards India is yet to be unproved. Pakistan has successfully used the instrument of terrorism against India. Multiple sources of power in Pakistan send confusing signals to India about Pakistan's intentions. Pakistani sponsored terrorism in beginning to be indigenized while its external sources of support remain intact and alive. Sadly India has not been able to cope with the challenges of internal security. Whether it is the dissidence and violence in Jammu and Kashmir or the insurgencies in the Northeast the progress towards conflict resolution is very slow. The Left Wing Extremism has expanded its ambit with every passing year. Islamic extremism is a new virus which if allowed to take roots in the Indian soil has disastrous possibilities. All these and other critical issues are discussed in great detail in this volume. 498 pp.

Some concluding thoughts/Manpreet Sethi. Appendices. Twenty years ago then Prime Minister of India Rajiv Gandhi presented an Action Plan at the Third Special Session on Disarmament of the United Nations. The Plan proposed a three stage schedule spread over 22 years to not only bring about universal elimination of nuclear weapons but also enable the creation of a secure and non violent world order. Unfortunately it proved to be an idea ahead of its time steeped as the world still was in Cold War realpolitik. Today retired deterrence practitioners military men policy makers and analysts worldwide are revisiting the concept of nuclear disarmament. An issue that had virtually disappeared from the strategic and intellectual radar over the last decade or so is being revived through government and non governmental initiatives. Meanwhile new nuclear dangers have added to the knottiness of long existing problems of horizontal and vertical proliferation. The articles contained in this volume encapsulate the current debate on why and how to move towards a world free of nuclear weapons. Presented at an international conference held in New Delhi the papers by leading experts from around the world question existing paradigms and explore new security architectures. None can set a date when the world might be rid of nuclear weapons but it can come about quickly if mindsets change. Ideas have the power to snowball into a force capable of bringing about a profound change and every revolution in history has taken its leaders by surprise. What is needed is the presence of a critical mass of decision makers and opinion shapers willing to think afresh. This book reflects one such attempt towards the goal of a nuclear weapons free world. 166 pp.

With the shift of global power from west to east we have entered the era of an Asia centred century. The rise of China and India the recovery and resurgence of Russia on one side and Japan on the other and the nature of the international order are leading to enormous changes. Changes in the military economic and political dynamics of Asia are accelerating. Historically changes in the international order and equations of power among nations have been almost inevitably accompanied by conflicts and wars. The challenge ahead of the international community in general and Asian Countries in particular would be how to ensure that this is avoided and competition so necessary to shaping the future is managed below the levels of armed conflict. This is crucial for most countries like India so that their comprehensive national development can progress without adverse developments. In order to work toward such goals it is necessary to look at security and military related issues as objectively as possible. This volume a resource base for the professional and the general reader is the second in the series of the annual publication of the Centre for Air Power studies under this title which aims to fill a critical information and knowledge gap in current strategic literature dealing with military strategy defence policies and trends in military capabilities that impact countries in Asia. In particular it covers some of the important areas that affect Asian Countries and the developments in Asian Countries with a focus on China India and Pakistan to provide the requisite regional balance. 292 pp.

Last word. Appendices. Akhaura was an important Pakistani Battalion size strong point located in the close proximity of Agartala the capital of Tripura state in Eastern India. The Meghna River made the Eastern sector in East Bengal very difficult to operate through owing to large water bodies and marshes. In fact operating from Tripura Lt Gen Sagat Singh's 4 Corp's plans were to liberate maximum territory east of the Meghna in the Liberation War in 1971. The possibility of getting to Dhaka across the broad expanse of the marshy terrain and the mighty Meghna seemed too far fetched but when it quite suddenly happened to come about it led to the stunning victory in the war. It began with the very convincing success of 57 Mountain Division in the capture of Akhaura. It was a set piece attack against a Pakistani battalion size strong point. This led to a sudden change in the direct thrust to the Meghna being adopted using the railway line on an embankment as its axis of advance. A quite unprepared 57 division with just two infantry brigades and no worthwhile bridging resources to overcome blown bridges made bold to go for the Bridge on the River Meghna leading to the most dramatic success story of the 1971 War. Gen Sagat seized the opportunity by employing helicopters to bypass Pakistani opposition and to dash to Dhaka the Centre of Gravity in the War. It was a stunning victory. In contrast the Pakistani higher leadership failed to protect Dhaka in the war. Indian and Mukti Bahani innovations led to a convincing success. The general population of Bangladesh and Dhaka in particular contributed most significantly to the stunning success. This account has been written 37 years after the Liberation War following a visit by Indian Veterans to Bangladesh in March 2008. Authenticity in battle narrations is difficult but in this book we have the step by step narration of the action of the opposite side obtained from the energy brigade commander's book East Pakistan to Bangladesh Brig Sadullah Khan's narration of the same events as seen by him which adds a unique flavour to the story. 182 pp.

ASEAN has been used by India as a springboard to reach out into the wider Asia Pacific region. India's early diplomatic initiatives and the various steps through which she graduated to the Summit level with ASEAN are thoroughly analysed in this book. Association with the ASEAN has enabled India to gain access to several regional and multilateral forums such as the ARF East Asia Summit and ASEM. As a matter of fact interaction with ASEAN has fuelled greater dynamism to India's regional multilateral in contrast to that by SAARC. Certainly the scope and level of India's involvement in ASEAN are greater than that with the South Asian regional forum. Summit status with ASEAN (ASEAN Plus One) has enlarged India's involvement in many sectors not just economic and political of the member countries. The India ASEAN Partnership Agreement (2004) laid out a broad canvass of intersectoral engagement between the parties. The book discusses the potentialities and limitations of the cooperative areas chartered by the partnership. This book is an exercise by regional specialists in assessing the different dimensions of India ASEAN relations. As Asia Pacific has become the foci of great power involvement one cannot ignore the relevance of such involvement to the India ASEAN relations. For dealing with ASEAN means engaging its individual member countries as well as those other powers and forums affiliated with that organisation. Hence India's relations with the individual countries ASEAN's affiliated bodies as well as the impact on India of great power relations say China with the ASEAN are broadly debated. Just as India's rapid engagement with ASEAN is a matter of concern to the regional powers New Delhi too would have equal reason to take cognizance of the role and relevance of other powers in ASEAN. The book attempts to deviate from an economic centric treatment of the India ASEAN engagement. Much of the existing literature overemphasized the economic content of the mutual intercourse. While trade and investment no doubt had been a core objective of the Look East drive into Southeast Asia the strategic dimension was not a secondary objective. Geo politics like geo economics as much was the driving force behind India's Eastern Drive. Henc.
