For
a
country
that
has
fought
five
wars
and
is
hemmed
in
by
nuclear-armed
states,
India
surprisingly
does
not
have
a
formally
declared
national
security
strategy.All
the
major
powers
of
the
world
publish
documents
that
spell
out
their
national
interests,
identify
their
threats
--
political,
economic,
diplomatic
or
with
regard
to
security
--
and
draw
up
policies
to
deal
with
them.
The
absence
of
a
similar
doctrine
makes
India's
defence
policy
look
ad
hoc
and
creates
the
impression
that
the
country
is
unprepared
to
realize
its
global
ambitions.The
New
Arthashastra
is
a
path-breaking
attempt
to
recommend
a
national
security
strategy
for
India.
It
does
the
difficult
groundwork
for
India's
political
leaders
and
policymakers
by
bringing
the
best
names
--
from
within
the
community
as
well
as
from
the
armed
forces
and
academia
--
to
the
ideating
table.This
collection
of
twenty
essays
covers
a
wide
range
of
topics:
nuclear
deterrence,
defence
spending,
the
domestic
production
of
weapons,
and
bracing
for
the
wars
of
the
future
that
will
be
fought
in
space
and
cyberspace.
Most
important,
it
presents
a
roadmap
to
address
India's
chief
concerns:
Chinese
assertiveness
and
Pakistan's
unrelenting
proxy
war.Informed
by
the
expertise
of
analysts
with
inside-out
knowledge
of
their
domains,
The
New
Arthashastra
offers
enduring
and
practical
insights
to
strategists
and
lay
readers alike.
