ABOUT THE BOOK
fjrigjwwe9r0pp_Books:Description
At first sight it seems that there is little in common
between the security dynamics of Northeast Asia and South Asia. They are
geographically situated in different parts of Eurasia. Their threat perceptions
are different, being informed by their unique historical experience. These
geo-strategic particularities have molded their security postures.
Both these regions are distinguished by
the presence of adversarial dyads- North Korea-South Korea and Pakistan-India.
These countries have single-mindedly pursued their quest for nuclear weapons,
except for South Korea, that was dissuaded in its own nuclear endeavor by the
by the United States.
