United States Nuclear Strategy In South Asia

<p>The book The United States Nuclear Strategy in South Asia examines the key challenges facing global and regional nonproliferation policies with a focus on South Asia. It critiques inconsistent U.S. nonproliferation strategies that have inadvertently encouraged nuclear development in the region. The study explores shifts in U.S. policy toward India highlighting how American scholars and policymakers reinterpreted their stance leading to nuclear cooperation driven by U.S. national interests. It also discusses internal and external factors influencing nuclear proliferation in South Asia and analyzes the contradictory nature of U.S. nonproliferation goals including the impact of the Indo-U.S. nuclear deal on India's nuclear policy.</p>
