520 _aA pivotal work on international relations, China’s Nightmare, America’s Dream: India as the Next Global Power is about what India needs to do to evolve into a world power. Written in a lucid and conversant style, this book is a frank critique of India’s passivity in the conduct of its affairs, and a call-to-action for a more assertive India in every sphere. The book: 1. Outlines why protectionism, not free trade, might make sense in the future as an economic policy for India; and why Indian companies should stop wasting money on expensive foreign acquisitions 2. Projects how in the twenty-first century, India will be the most important market for American multinationals, more important than even China. 3. Weaves together analyses of history, economics, foreign policy, and social policy, to chart the past, present, and future of India’s rise to global-power status. 4. Reasons why India must resist China’s encroachment in its backyard, mainly in Sri Lanka. 5. Proclaims how the United States and India are the true heirs to the British Empire 6. Will interest experts and lay readers alike.
