Enduring and Emerging Issues in South Asian Security examines a number of security and governance issues in South Asia and their implications for U.S. foreign policy in the region. The major enduring issues include India-Pakistan and India-China relations, conventional forces, and nuclear weapons. Key questions in these areas include the drivers and trajectory of the Sino-Indian rivalry; the reasons behind the India-Pakistan diplomatic talks and their breakdown; prospects for nuclear use and arms races; and how well Pakistan and India aligned with the U.S. on issues such as the war in Afghanistan and balancing a rising China. China’s role in South Asia also warrants examination.

Some underexplored issues include democratic backsliding in India, authoritarian hardening in China, and their international ramifications. Another set of issues relates to Pakistan: the impact of its political culture on democracy and the insurgency in the Baluchistan province. The authors also explore internal security challenges in Nepal, Bangladesh, and the Maldives. A comparative study of these cases offers lessons on countering violent extremism and conflicts related to issues of identity and marginalization.

With chapters written by academics and analysts specializing in these issues, this volume will provide all readers interested in South Asian security and U.S. policy in the region with new insights into these topics. It would be a useful resource for universities, departments of international relations, think-tanks, research organizations, and the policy community.
