This book examines India’s Look East policy and its ramifications within a broader framework of development of global logistics and governance. India’s Look/Act East policy was developed for bridging Southeast Asian nations through Northeast India. The volume brings together various themes like cartographies of connectivity in the Asian context; logistics and the reshaping of global governance; role of Bangladesh in India’s Act East; the city of Kolkata and its ports; the spatial dynamics of trade, capital and conflict; social governance in Nagaland and Manipur; borders, mobility and India’s northeast; to converge various elements of this new connectivity within India’s logistic visions and shows the increasing significance of infrastructural alliances in Asia.
