Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. India is poised to play a significant role in the 21st century multipolar world. The fulcrum of geostrategic power play is shifting towards the East, where China and India together account for more than one third of humanity and more than a quarter of global trade. Security threats abound in the contemporary world, which could either be overt or covert, and may manifest in the external or internal dimensions. They may be from hostile States or non-State actors, and could be military or economic or both. The scourge of terrorism and radicalization has now diffused widely like a hydra-headed monster. Threats to Nations' Internal security are therefore more devious and worrisome than external aggression. Hence, security against the wide array of threats also has to be multi-dimensional to cover all bases. In the emerging geopolitical environment, it is imperative that India takes a holistic view of all the challenges in its internal and external dimensions. It needs to urgently evolve a coherent National Security Doctrine and strategy to meet those challenges effectively. The National Security Paradigm proposed in the book is a comprehensive conceptual model that integrates all dimensions in the Nation's internal and external environments that have a bearing on National security. Although the model can be applied generically, it has been adapted to India's context. Based on it, an in-depth anaysis is carried out of all the elements that impact India's security. Internal security has been analyzed through the prisms of National will and ethos; Political stability and morality; Social cohesion; Economic strength with inclusive growth; and Integrity of institutions. Based on a comprehensive review of the Global geopolitical environment, India's external threats are analyzed under the dimensions of National Security Doctrine and strategy, Military power, Defence budget, Military-industrial complex, Foreign policy and Soft power. Internal stability, social cohesion and inclusive growth, along with a strong National ethos provide the strong foundation that boosts India's strength and capability to ward of all external challenges. Citizens and Soldiers are together in this mission to make India strong internally as well as against external threats. Together they are keeping India's tryst with destiny.
