Book excerpt: South Asia has inherited a volatile ethnic and social mix that generates powerful political unrest between the nations of the region. Within this setting India continues its quest for regional great power status. This volume asks whether India can continue to build on its military base and extend its strategic reach, or whether the problems of a troubled nation and neighbourhood act as a restraint on these aspirations. If it does eventually achieve these aims, what kind of power is it likely to be?
