Indian Foreign Policy
"This is a remarkably well written, deftly argued and carefully researched volume on India�s foreign policy. It offers sufficient historical perspective, it examines India�s key relationships and it discusses India�s aspirations to and constraints on the rise to great-power status. Given the paucity of work on contemporary India�s foreign relations, Ogden's work constitutes a most welcome addition to the literature. Scholars, policy makers and journalists interested in the country�s foreign policy all stand to benefit from a perusal of this important book."
Sumit Ganguly, Indiana University
"Using four central themes as key to understanding the motivations of Indian elites in the realm of foreign policy, this lucid book provides a coherent narrative about the potential and challenges that confront India as it makes its way up the global interstate hierarchy. It is an important contribution not only to the study of Indian foreign policy but also to the way in which the subject is taught."
Harsh V. Pant, King's College London
"This is a valuable and much needed textbook that offers students of foreign policy an intelligent and balanced introduction to where India has been and where it might be going. It is up to date and contains helpful charts, tables, illustrations, maps and questions. It will prove a great aid in the classroom."
Rahul Sagar, Princeton University
"This book is bound to become the new standard textbook on foreign policy."
Political Studies Review
"This book is arguably the best introduction to Indian foreign policy available for readers today."
Pacific Affairs Review
