Book Synopsis Armed Coexistence by : Stephen P. Westcott
Download or read book Armed Coexistence written by Stephen P. Westcott and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-02-04 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first to comprehensively explore the origins and reasons behind the Sino-Indian border dispute’s intractability. Utilising an array of accurate maps, tables, archival and scholarly research, this book shows how an ambiguous frontier became a contested border and how it has become relatively pacified yet remaining unresolved. Unlike previous examinations, however, this book also provides a theoretically based explanation as to why it is so difficult for an interstate border dispute to be resolved. By examining a wide range of salient actors, from state leaders to the individual governing organisations to the State itself, it is shown that it is usually in their interest to maintain the status quo rather than seek some form of resolution, thereby ensuring that the border dispute remains intractable. With both China and India shaping up to be major powers throughout the twenty-first century, a detailed examination of the major issue of contention between them is more pertinent now than ever.

The other three parts explore important aspects of this overall process.
Book Synopsis June 2020 – Road to Galwan – From Where It Began by : Deepti Singh
Download or read book June 2020 – Road to Galwan – From Where It Began written by Deepti Singh and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2021-05-14 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soldiers when committed, can’t compromise. They do not let the task go until it’s been done which depicts their absolute loyalty towards the nation and the people. That was the spirit of the Colonel and his men who shattered the Chinese hegemonic ambition and desire to dictate dominance at fourteen thousand feet above sea level on 15 June 2020. The soldiers were engaged in a primitive fight on the world’s most treacherous battle ground where oxygen is sparse and lungs gasp for breath. History resonates itself; 58 years ago China played a similar game. The 1962 defeat was not easy for the young and proud nation. But this time, India is wary of the Chinese belligerence. The root of the clash can be found in the past. From there, the path is set to shape the future. How we communicated, what was said, did they fail to comprehend or did two fists close too early? All that is required is to go back into pages of history. Road to Galwan takes you through the gripping journey of putting the border dispute between India and China in the correct perspective. It recounts the events of the past and weaves through the current situation for a holistic viewpoint.

Book Synopsis Picturing China in the American Press by : David D. Perlmutter
Download or read book Picturing China in the American Press written by David D. Perlmutter and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2007-03-29 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Picturing China in the American Press juxtaposes what the ordinary American news reader was shown visually inTime Magazine between 1949 and 1973 with contemporary perspectives on the behind-the-scenes history of the period. Time Magazine is an especially fruitful source for such a visual-historical contrast and comparison because it was China-centric, founded and run by Henry Luce, a man who loved China and was commensurably obsessed with winning China to democracy and Western influence. Picturing China examines in detail major events (the Korean War and Nixon's trip to China), less considerable occurrences (shellings of Straits islands and diplomatic flaps), great personages (Chairman Mao and Henry Kissinger), and the common people and common life of China as seen through the lenses and described by the pens of American reporters, artists, photographers, and editors. Picturing China in the American Press is of great interest to both scholars of communications, Chinese history, China Studies, and journalists.

Book Synopsis China's Use of Armed Coercion by : James A. Siebens
Download or read book China's Use of Armed Coercion written by James A. Siebens and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-11-17 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes when, how, why, and to what effect China has used its armed forces in recent decades to coerce other actors in the international system. Over the past 20 years, China’s international status as a “great power” has become undeniable. China’s “peaceful rise” has included substantial investments in military modernization and an increasingly assertive regional posture. While China has not waged war since 1979, it has frequently resorted to what the U.S. State Department has referred to as “gangster tactics” – threats, intimidation, and armed confrontation – to advance its strategic aims. This volume illuminates the ways in which China has employed its military and paramilitary tools to coerce other states, and examines the motivations and specific foreign policy objectives that China has pursued using force short of war. The study presents new analysis of an original dataset on coercive actions undertaken by China’s armed forces, taking into account the political objectives pursued and the environmental contexts in which these operations occurred. It also presents a series of expert case studies addressing the most consequential examples of China using force to coerce in recent decades. The volume contributes to a more historically informed, empirically based understanding of great power competition. This book will be of much interest to students of Chinese security and foreign policy, strategic studies, Asian politics and International Relations.
Book Synopsis Kashmir' s Untold Story by : Iqbal Chand Malhotra
Download or read book Kashmir' s Untold Story written by Iqbal Chand Malhotra and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-09-18 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why has this state of siege in the Kashmir valley continued for 72 years since the Partition of India? What role has Pakistan played in it all of these years? And will there ever be a resolution to the militancy in the state? How will Islamabad get the forces of Islamic jihad-nurtured and based in Pakistan-to ever reconcile to the existing boundaries of J&K? How important is the ownership of the waters of the rivers of the Indus system for Pakistan-despite generous supplies under the Indus Waters Treaty-in determining an end to the siege within Kashmir? What are China's interests in J&K and how does the success of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) for oil and gas supplies hinge on Pakistan's occupation of northern areas of Kashmir? Why does the future survival and growth of the Chinese microchip industry depend upon the continuance of China's control of the waters and dams in the Indus river system? Kashmir's Untold Story: Declassified provides answers to these gripping questions and joins the dots in presenting the matrix of a consistent and compelling argument regarding the future of the state of Jammu and Kashmir. Today, the state's water resources are coveted by the beleaguered Chinese microchip industry and it appears that this is going to determine the continuing militancy in the state. Malhotra and Raza argue that China and its client Pakistan will actively back the militancy, come what may. Delving deeper, the book also reveals amazing insights into the Government of India's policy towards the state, right from 1889, when it first imposed central rule and dispossessed the rule of the then Maharaja, till date. Owing to its strategic location, the intrigues within the state and the machinations of its neighbours have resulted in the government directly administering its affairs, one way or the other, for the last 130 years. It is a riveting account of the history of Jammu and Kashmir, from the time of its political and geographic consolidation under Maharaja Gulab Singh to present-day India.

Download or read book In Service of Emergent India written by Jaswant Singh and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2007-09-21 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Service of Emergent India is an evocative insider's account of a crucial period in India's history. It provides an in-depth look at events that changed the way the world perceived India, and a unique view of Indian statecraft. As Minister of External Affairs, Defense, and Finance in the BJP-led governments of 1996 and 1998-2004, Jaswant Singh was the main foreign policy spokesman for the government of Atal Bihari Vajpayee during the 1998 nuclear tests by India and Pakistan, the hijacking to Kandahar, Afghanistan, of Indian Airlines flight IC 814, and the Kargil conflict between India and Pakistan, as well as other key events. In an account that is part memoir, part analysis of India's past and future prospects, Singh reflects on his childhood in rural Rajasthan at the end of the colonial period, his schooling and military training, and memories of Indian Independence and the Partition of India and Pakistan. He analyzes the first four decades of Indian nationhood under Congress Party rule, ongoing tensions between India and Pakistan, Sino-Indian relations, and post-9/11 U.S.-Indian relations.

This book was released on 2016-04-26 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How will China use its increasing military capabilities in the future? China faces a complicated security environment with a wide range of internal and external threats. Rapidly expanding international interests are creating demands for the People's Liberation Army (PLA) to conduct new missions ranging from protecting Chinese shipping from Somali pirates to evacuating citizens from Libya. The most recent Chinese defense white paper states that the armed forces must "make serious preparations to cope with the most complex and difficult scenarios . . . so as to ensure proper responses . . . at any time and under any circumstances." Based on a conference co-sponsored by Taiwan's Council of Advanced Policy Studies, RAND, Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, and National Defense University, The People's Liberation Army and Contingency Planning in China brings together leading experts from the United States and Taiwan to examine how the PLA prepares for a range of domestic, border, and maritime...
