Book Description
India s emergence as a confident and responsible nuclear nation has required careful crafting of its nuclear policies. After Pokhran II and the Chagai Hills tests, the South Asian security architecture and, with it, the whole matrix of nuclear diplomacy had undergone a paradigmatic shift. India s nuclear diplomacy too acquired a new prominence after these events. It was important for India to improve its bilateral relations with major powers for strategic reasons. At the same time, it needed to address the challenge of its burgeoning energy needs at home. "India s Nuclear Diplomacy After Pokhran II" presents an analytical, perspective-based and narrative exposition of the facts and issues involved in international nuclear gamesmanship, taking every care to maintain objectivity and balance. Flowing from years of intensive research and reflection, this book breaks new ground by focusing on India s nuclear diplomacy with the major global and regional powers, and the rationale of its stand vis-a-vis the NPT and CTBT. To reach out to the general reader, in addition to scholars of the subject, this book unravels the intricacies and technicalities of the post-Pokhran II diplomacy in lucid and comprehensible phraseology."

Indian Nuclear Policy
Author: Harsh V. Pant
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0199093830
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 166
Book Description
India has come a long way from being a nuclear pariah to a de facto member of the nuclear club. The transition in its nuclear identity has been accompanied by its transformation into a major economic power and underlines a pragmatic turn in its foreign-policy thinking. This book provides a historical narrative of the evolution of India’s nuclear policy since 1947, as the country continues its pursuit for complete integration into the global nuclear order. Situating India’s nuclear behaviour in this context, the book explains how India’s engagement with the atom is unique in international nuclear history and politics. Aided by declassified archival documents and oral history interviews, it focuses on how status, security, domestic politics, and the role of individuals have played a key role in defining and shaping India’s nuclear trajectory, policy choices, and their consequences.

Pokhran and Beyond

ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
This book examines India's nuclear position in the context of its domestic politics, exploring how the position challenges India's interests and values within the regional and international environment. It points to the militarization of Indian nuclear and space science, arguing that external pressures stimulated Indian nationalism and led to a dramatic change in Indian political and social thought about strategic affairs. Kapur asserts that the new Indian approach is to specify Indian strategic priorities and agenda, demonstrate political will by military and political action, bear and inflict costs on rivals, and engage the world through power politics rather than disarmament talks.
