Rezensionen

'We increasingly know how rising India views the world but not enough about how the world, especially the non-Western world, sees India. These timely essays, written by an array of regional experts, are a terrific addition to the scholarship on India's place in international life.' - Kanti Bajpai, Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, Singapore

'Dr Sullivan and her contributors are to be applauded for offering us these fresh and stimulating interpretations of India's role in global politics. The deliberate focus on non-Western views of India on issues that are of importance to these mostly middle-range states adds significantly to the growing body of work that rightly aims to promote an understanding of international relations and history that is truly global in focus.' - Rosemary Foot, St Antony's College, University of Oxford, UK

'The story of India's rise has so far been told by New Delhi and by Washington, or conveyed with their concerns in mind. This book lets us hear other voices - from Africa, East Asia, Latin America and the Middle East - speak about India's growing global ambitions. Innovative and sagacious, it is essential reading for all analysts concerned with how rising powers are shaping contemporary international relations.' - Ian Hall, Griffith University, Brisbane, Australia
