Theorizing Indian Foreign Policy
Examined from a non-Western lens, the standard International Relations (IR) and Foreign Policy Analysis (FPA) approaches are ill-adapted because of some Eurocentric and conceptual biases. These biases partly stem from: first, the dearth of analyses focusing on non-Western cases; second, the primacy of Western-born concepts and method in the two disciplines. That is what this book seeks to redress.

The Justification of War and International Order
In the past few decades the understanding of the relationship between nations has undergone a radical transformation.
