During this period, India's democracy has flourished, surmounting many challenges even as multiple geopolitical fractures have plagued the world. Arjun Subramaniam offers a changing perspective of how India has approached the conduct of war and conflict in contemporary times. These include the 2016 cross-border strikes across the LoC (Line of Control) with Pakistan by the Indian Army's Special Forces, the face-off with the Chinese at Doklam in 2017, the preemptive punitive strikes by the Indian Air Force against terrorist camps in Pakistan in 2019, and the large-scale aerial engagement between the Indian Air Force and the Pakistan Air Force (PAF) the following day. Subramaniam includes a chapter on the development of India's nuclear capabilities, since nuclear posturing in the India-Pakistan context has given the US much to worry about in South Asia"--  |c Provided by publisher.
