What will the foreign policies of China and India look like in the future? What should they look like? And what can each country learn from the other? Bridging Two Worlds gathers a coterie of experts in the field, analyzing profound political thinkers from these ancient regions whose theories of interstate relations set the terms for the debates today. This volume is the first work that systematically compares ancient thoughts and theories about international politics between China and India. It is essential reading for anyone interested in the growth of China and India and what it will mean for the rest of the world.Great transformations ;4.Diplomatic relationsfast(OCoLC)fst01907412Politics and governmentfast(OCoLC)fst01919741IndiaForeign relations21st centuryChinaForeign relations21st centuryIndiaPolitics and government21st centuryChinaPolitics and government21st centuryChinafastIndiafastforeign policies; China; IndiaDiplomatic relations.Politics and government.327.54051Acharya Amitavctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbAmes Roger T.ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbBell Daniel A.ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbBell Daniel A.edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBhargava Rajeevctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbDatta-Ray Deep K.ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbFangyin Zhouctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbHaixia Qictbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbJin Xuctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbOlivelle Patrickctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbPardesi Manjeet S.ctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbShahi Deepshikhactbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbSingh Upinderctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbSinha Kanadctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbXuetong Yanctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbYujia Zhaoctbhttps://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctbDE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK996509971303316Bridging two worlds3401709UNISA
