Description

This volume considers two major sets of external influences affecting South Asian politics: those external to South Asia, and those emanating from neighbouring states. Focusing on the way in which the big powers have acquired client states in South Asia as well as the way in which the South Asian states themselves have invited external powers to assist them, the contributors explore the security dilemmas confronting the region.
