India as an Emerging Super Power: Possibilities and Obstacles

Synopsis

Superpower is a state with a dominant position in the international system which has the ability to influence events and its own interests and project power on a worldwide scale to protect those interests.A superpower is traditionally considered to be a step higher than a great power. India is undoubtedly a tough country. But its very complexity, conflict and chaos make it at once very attractive and compelling.Over and above these achievements and potentialities for further acceleration, Indias greatest assets lies in what is termed, Soft Power. The term was first coined by Joseph Nye (Harvard University) to describe a countrys ability to alter the behaviour of others through attraction rather than military action (sticks) or economic incentives (carrots).This book is a presentation of certain studies which were made pursuing the status of India in the International scenario. The papers highlight different aspects which can contribute India to be a super power in the near future. The obstacles indicated by the studies if overcome, Indias position will be much better in the International Politics.
