Abstract
- The Indian subcontinent remains a chronically under-studied area of the world in US academic circles. This inattention is curious, since both Pakistan and India are emerging as critical partners in US policy, both states possess nuclear weapons, and the entire region is an enormous generator of violent religious and ethno-nationalist non-state actors. T. V. Paul's The India-Pakistan Conflict: An Enduring Rivalry and Rajesh Basrur's Minimum Deterrence and India's Nuclear Security both make important contributions to current scholarship. Each book applies broad theoretical frameworks--enduring rivalries and deterrence theory, respectively--to the specific conditions of the subcontinent, buttressed by compelling empirical evidence and a rich dose of regional and cultural context.
