Arming Without Aiming: India's Military Modernization
ISBN: 9780815722540 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. India has long been motivated to modernize its military, and it now has the resources. But so far, the drive to rebuild has lacked a critical component--strategic military planning. India's approach of arming without strategic purpose remains viable, however, as it seeks great-power accommodation of its rise and does not want to appear threatening. What should we anticipate from this effort in the future, and what are the likely ramifications? Stephen Cohen and Sunil Dasgupta answer those crucial questions in a book so timely that it reached number two on the nonfiction bestseller list in...
