About this book
Owing to China's shrewd and strategic diplomacy, India has viewed China with suspicion, particularly since the 1962 war. Despite this, an in-depth understanding of the relationship between these two countries has rarely been presented. Certain events and incidents have triggered discussions and debates over the years, and these continue even today. However, the deeper dimensions of these developments have seldom been explored.
In this book, Vijay Gokhale, former Foreign Secretary of India and former Indian Ambassador to China, examines the negotiations between the two countries and the changes that have taken place in their diplomatic engagement.
From the period following India's independence to the present day, India and China have engaged in six significant rounds of diplomatic negotiations. Through an examination of these prolonged negotiations, Gokhale offers a critical analysis of India-China relations and also explores their contemporary state.
The author investigates the diplomatic strategies China employs while negotiating with India, the tactics and manoeuvres it adopts, and the instruments it uses to advance its interests. The primary objective is to help Indian officials gain valuable insights for future negotiations and to create greater public awareness about this important subject.
A book that analytically traces the constantly evolving relationship between India and China…
