The China Factor
Beijing's Expanding Engagement in Sri Lanka, Maldives, Bangladesh, and Myanmar
Shantanu Roy-Chaudhury
Über dieses Buch
India's relations with China are at a crossroads. Apart from examining the complex and dynamic bilateral relations, it is equally important to highlight the nuances of China's engagement with the countries in India's neighbourhood and understand the strategic implications that arise for New Delhi.
Shantanu Roy-Chaudhury's The China Factor explores Beijing's political, economic, and defence relations with Sri Lanka, Maldives, Bangladesh, and Myanmar, and weighs the dividends of the bilateral relationships to better comprehend the geopolitical subtleties in the region. The book subsequently draws out the implications for India, illuminates New Delhi's engagement with its neighbours, and suggests policy recommendations for a way forward.
Drawing from diverse sources, including government documents and literature from India, China, and the countries being studied, along with interviews with serving and former officials, The China Factor offers a detailed investigation into China's engagement with India's neighbourhood, which necessitates a deeper understanding as New Delhi manoeuvres the tectonic shifts in its external environment.
