Revisiting Contemporary South Asia Engelska 2012

This book is a collection of contributions by scholars and experts from different parts of South Asia and Europe on South Asia or issues related to South Asia as well as a result of a conference held in Bruneck (South Tyrol, Italy) organized by the Institute of Transnational Studies (ITS), Italy/ Germany during 2-4 December 2011. The volume is not only a comprehensive collection covering various dimensions of South Asian politics and security in the foreign policy and strategic context, but also provides an excellent summary of South Asia's current complexity as a region and its growth trajectory. Its strength lies in its inclusion of both South Asian and non-South Asian views, particularly from a distant European perspective. The book consists of narratives on security and political issues and facets that remain vital for both South Asia and its adjacent region.
