Routledge Handbook of China–India Relations
The Routledge Handbook of China–India Relations provides a much-needed understanding of the important and complex relationship between India and China. Reflecting the consequential and multifaceted nature of the bilateral relationship, it brings together thirty-five original contributions by a wide range of experts in the field. The chapters show that China–India relations are more far-reaching and complicated than ever and marked by both conflict and cooperation. Following a thorough introduction by the Editors, the handbook is divided into seven parts which combine thematic and chronological principles:
- Historical overviews
- Culture and strategic culture: constructing the other
- Core bilateral conflicts
- Military relations
- Economy and development
- Relations with third parties
- China, India, and global order
This handbook will be an essential reference work for scholars interested in International Relations, Asian Politics, Global Politics, and China–India relations.
