INDIA RISING IRSA C

This book strives to understand India's approach to global governance by way of systematically considering three potential factors - ideas, interests, and institutions - that have an impact on India's foreign policy-making on the global level. They examine possible explanations for India's varying compliance with global regimes and for its varying contributions to the development and change of those regimes in eight issue areas: non-proliferation, maritime security, counter-terrorism, cyber-governance, democracy promotion, climate change, trade policy, and development cooperation.
