Decoding China - Hard Perspectives from India

China’s remarkable ascent, marked by significant achievements along with deep anxieties and its quest to reclaim its ‘rightful role’ as the leading nation of the world, stands as the most consequential geopolitical development of the past forty years. Decoding China: Hard Perspectives from India explores this phenomenon through an Indian lens. Featuring insights from twenty-one prominent diplomats, military officials and scholars who have closely observed the ‘rejuvenation of the Chinese nation’ under Xi Jinping, the book provides rigorous, evidence-based and accessible evaluations of China’s internal and external dynamics, and India–China relations.
