Soft cover. Condition: New. On 7 October 2023, Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel that claimed many lives and has led to a devastating, retaliatory war in Gaza. Even as the death toll mounts every day, the world remains divided in its support of Israel or Palestine. With the US proposing 'a new Middle East', an idea that found significant international support, the war has cast a shadow of doubt over the future of the region. The Abraham Accords of 2020 saw four Arab countries normalize their ties with Israel, laying the foundations of the new regional realignment. But these shifts ignore West Asia's 'original sin'-the unresolved question of Palestine. Based on his multiple reporting visits to the region and dozens of interviews, Stanly Johny traces the roots of the conflict and unpacks the complex geopolitical systems that are involved. He also examines India's evolving policies on Israel-Palestine, its diplomatic history in the region and its current interests. Original Sin is a new, definitive study of West Asia that is essential for anyone who wants to engage with the current war.…

Hardcover. Condition: New. America's withdrawal from Afghanistan was a historical event that left a lasting impact on both Afghanistan's future and on Asian geopolitics. It also brought China into focus. This book traces the emergence of China as a key player in Afghanistan, and the evolution of China's Afghan policy with a focus on its relations with the Taliban. This emergence amid the US exit is a potentially game-changing development for the region, even if questions remain about Beijing's appetite to step in to fill the void and the limits of its ambitions. The book will examine what Beijing's interests are and the drivers of its foreign policy, and specifically how its new Silk Road project, the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), is shaping China-Afghan relations. It will delve deep into the evolution of the BRI and how Afghanistan has emerged as a key focal point on the corridor heading west from Xinjiang. The book will also look at the Xinjiang factor, drawing on the authors' travels to China's western frontiers, as well as the internal dynamics that are pushing Beijing's westward march. It will examine the rise of the East Turkestan Islamic Movement and the terror groups that are leading to an increasingly securitized approach to China's western regions and beyond, including with possible Chinese plans to deploy special forces along the China-Afghan border areas in the Wakhan corridor and Badakhshan region. China's Afghan engagement is also deepening the 'all weather' alliance between China and Pakistan, with Beijing increasingly leaning on Islamabad, particularly in its outreach to the Taliban and elements in Afghanistan long supported by the Pakistani state, a perennial source of tension between Islamabad and Kabul. The book will look at how both countries are approaching the Afghan issue and the implications for India, especially Kashmir.…

Hardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. The rapid rise of the Islamic State in Iraq and Greater Syria was almost like a fairy tale. A group that was unheard of in early 2013 captured territories as big as Great Britain by 2014 June, effectively erasing the border between Iraq and Syria. It announced a Caliphate, drew in thousands of fighters and supporters from across the world, including India, launched attacks in nations from Brussels to Bangladesh and earned loyalties of local militant groups in conflict-ridden states such as Nigeria, Libya, Afghanistan and Pakistan. By the end of 2014, ISIS had transformed itself into a global force of terror. ISIS Caliphate tells the story of this phenomenon. Based on primary sources and interviews, the book explores the geopolitical, organisational and ideological roots of ISIS and narrates how the group has spread its wings from its core in Iraq and Syria to the peripheries of India and Pakistan.
