Synopsis

Uncertain Eagle: US Military Strategy in Asia examines the military strategy of the United States and its impact on India and other countries in Asia. The United States is still the strongest power in the world, but major rising powers such as China, Japan and India have begun to exert greater influence and challenge to the USA in world affairs. Uncertain Eagle examines other challenges to the United States, such as terrorism, the threat of nuclear proliferation and 'loose nukes' in Iran, North Korea and Pakistan. Whether the United States will remain an active player in Asian military affairs or choose to be an active balancer, will have important implications for Asian stability and Indian security.
