Rise of China: A Military Challenge to India

About this book

China is at the cusp of becoming a global superpower in the next two decades if its economic rise continues uninterrupted. However, economic growth has not found answers to the geographic, demographic and social faultlines within China. China's neighbourhood is turbulent and has been throwing up new challenges with the potential to create instability within the region. The maritime conundrum, in spite of the port strategy to develop bases in the Indian Ocean Region, will persist and the policy of debt trap has exposed the real intent of colonisation through the Maritime Silk Route. The resurgence of a state can be considered holistic only if the people become partners in governance and share power. With the return of the one-man rule, sharing of power with the people is unlikely to happen any time soon in China. Unresolved border disputes and competing interests between India and China have the potential of military conflict. Development of comprehensive military capabilities, from a dissuasive posture to deterrence, is an objective that India must aim for before the capability gap becomes too wide.The book comprises 10 chapters and the author has critically analysed the faultlines of China and the trajectory it has taken to achieve the status of a global superpower. It will be a good reference volume for academicians, policy-makers and military professionals to suggest the future course of actions for military capability development.
