Understanding the Emerging Contours of Power and Hegemony
Contemporary Geo-political Narratives
Angira Sen Sarma (Ed.)‚ Yury Byaly (Ed.)
Contemporary Geo-political Narratives
About the Book
India-Russia relations have withstood the test of time and both countries have remained important partners. Their bilateral ties had to be adjusted with the changing international milieu post Soviet disintegration. Today, the strategic partnership between the two countries covers a wide range of areas, including economic cooperation, science and technology, energy, space and defence, indicating the continuing strong ties between the two countries. The chapters in this volume discuss various issues of common concern like terrorism, radical Islam, non-proliferation, migration, climate change, drug trafficking and the international financial crisis. They also highlight the converging and diverging views of the two countries on global challenges like tensions in the Middle East and Afghanistan.
