Das Gupta and Lorenz M. LüthiAbingdon, Oxon :Routledge,2017.1 online resource (269 pages) illustrations, maps"A Routledge India original"--cover.1-138-69320-0 pt. 1. Bilateral perspectives -- part 2. International perspectives -- part 3. Domestic perspectives.The Sino-Indian Border War of 1962 forms a major landmark in South Asian, Asian and Cold War history. Among others, it resulted in an unresolved conflict permanently hindering rapprochement between China and India, the establishment of the Sino-Pakistani axis, the deepening of the Sino-Soviet split and had a lasting impact on Indian domestic affairs. This book draws on new documentary evidence to re-evaluate perceptions, motivations and decision-making processes of both antagonists, but also of third powers immediately affected by the conflict. It also investigates the effect on India's internal politics, its Constitution, the Communist Party of India and the fate of Indians of Chinese origin. Finally, it analyses how the conflict is viewed in India today and its ramifications for India-China relationship. A major intervention in the Asian historical landscape, this book will be indispensable to scholars and researchers of modern history, especially of modern South Asia and China, international relations, defense and strategic studies, international politics and government. It will also be useful for think-tanks and government agencies.WarWarHistory19th centuryCongressesChinaRelationsIndiaIndiaRelationsChinaWar.WarHistory355.0NQ 9040rvkNQ 9030rvkDas Gupta Amit R910312Luthi Lorenz M.1970-431237FlBoTFGFlBoTFGBOOK9910149371403321The Sino-Indian war of 19622037476UNINA
