Indian Nuclear Policy

Oxford India Short Introductions

Beschreibung

This short introduction provides a clear and succinct account of the evolution of Indian nuclear policy over six decades since Independence. Situating India's nuclear behaviour in its quest for global status, demands of national security, vagaries of domestic politics and the idiosyncrasies of the individuals who led its nuclear program, it explains how India's engagement with the atom is unique in international nuclear history and politics.
