In an age defined by shifting alliances, emerging technologies, and contested borders, Global Affairs: Security, Strategy, and Conflict offers a sweeping and incisive analysis of the forces reshaping international stability. This book explores the evolving architecture of global security through a multidisciplinary lens, unpacking the doctrines, dilemmas, and dynamics that govern state behavior and strategic decision-making.

Key themes include:

  • International Security: A deep dive into the transformation of security doctrines, the role of multilateral institutions, and the delicate balance between deterrence and diplomacy.
  • Terrorism and Counterterrorism: Insight into the global fight against violent extremism, with a focus on adaptive threats, cyberterrorism, and strategic countermeasures.
  • Nuclear Proliferation and Nuclear Security: A critical look at the spread of nuclear capabilities, escalation risks, and control mechanisms, with focused analysis on South Asia, the U.S., Russia, Iran, and Ukraine.
  • Nuclear Politics in South Asia: Examines the strategic postures and crisis behavior of India, Pakistan, and China, highlighting deterrence dynamics and regional flashpoints.
  • Maritime Strategy and Geopolitical Competition: Explores cooperation and rivalry in the Arabian Sea, Indian Ocean, and Pacific Ocean, analyzing naval buildup, strategic chokepoints, and the contest for influence in vital sea lanes.
  • Theoretical and Historical Foundations: Integrates liberal, realist, and critical perspectives on security, linking political economy, structural violence, and global governance.

    • Supported by recent data, case studies, and a comprehensive glossary, this book is an essential resource for scholars, policymakers, and readers seeking to understand the strategic currents shaping our world in 2025 and beyond.
