Taming The Dragon : China India And The World Of 21St Century

<p>Over the past half a century Asia has experienced unprecedented levels of growth. China and India have successfully capitalized on this wave by becoming the largest and the third largest economy respectively. For both the nations economic prosperity has translated into a potent weapon for expanding their geopolitical influence. Unfortunately this has given birth to a new breed of rivalry between the two powers. After a long period of uneasy cooperation tensions have since begun to reemerge. In Asia China seems to be unstoppable. It is on a bullying spree in its backyard and the U.S.A the only country capable of stopping it right now has adopted a protectionist stand under its new and erratic President Donald Trump. But in doing so the U.S is leaving behind a huge void which can only be filled by India. The victims of Chinese expansionism are looking towards her for help. Will India be able to fill this void? Will it be able to put a full stop to China's unjust imperial ambitions? Only time will tell.</p>
