In the wake of the international combat mission in Afghanistan, South Asia's security is becoming a factor of increasing importance both to local and more distant great powers: Pakistan, India, Iran, China and the US.

Recenzje

This volume makes a fascinating and interesting study. This is strongly recommended not only for researchers, academia, and graduate students but also for strategic analysts and public policy figures who are frantically engaged in exploring viable pathways to deal with core threats and risks facing South Asia and Afghanistan.
