International Relations Theory and South Asia: Volume 2: Security, Political Economy [Paperback]

Bringing together scholarship from several South Asian countries, this volume understands conflict resolution and cooperation building in the region. The essays cover three inter related issues security; political economy domestic politics; and the construction of identities and normative frameworks.

They employ broader social science theorizing, particularly in relation to political economy, to go beyond conceptualizations based on international relations theory. The volume takes a fresh look at the inter relationships between issues and their analyses and eschews stand alone topics such as Kashmir, nuclear policies, or regional cooperation.

Combining theory with fieldwork, it provides diverse perspectives and arguments for a more nuanced picture of international relations in South Asia.
