Item description from seller

Contents Acknowledgements. Introduction. 1. Catalyzing graduated modernization through diplomacy Nehru's Trek to Bhutan 1958. 2. Diplomatic advocacy in a crisis of mutual misperceptions negotiating the India China boundary question 1960. 3. Diplomacy for compensation for Indians negotiating with Idi Amin's government 1975. 4.

Diplomacy for equitable allocation on international riparian flows the sharing of the Ganga waters at Farakka 1976 1977. 7. Diplomacy between landlocked and unequal countries separating transit and trade with Nepal 1978. 8. Some unforgettable diplomatic contemporaries. Index. The book is a chronological compilation of the author's diplomatic experiences when during his foreign service career he was involved in seven unconnected negotiating responsibilities. No other officer was entrusted with comparable burdens but he acknowledges that they came to him by bureaucratic happenstance. Most negotiations were with unequal neighbours which required anticipating the perceptions (and misperceptions) of the sovereign partners. Suspicions justified or exaggerated of coercion and hegemonism had to be assuaged. Mehta also recalls the personalities of select colleagues and negotiating opposite numbers the ablest amongst whom was Chang Wen Chin his Chinese counterpart. According to Mehta dueling all day intellectually but toasting each other's nations after sundown symbolizes the unique calling of professional diplomacy. 296 pp.
