Us Imperialism in South Asia and the Persian Gulf by Sanjeev Kumar H. M. Pdf
This study discusses how the US has managed to sustain its dominance in spite of a constantly transforming global scenario, now characterized by powerful supra national actors as the European Union and rising powers like China. It is an attempt to understand United States' security and foreign policy embedded in the doctrine of bilateralism, largely situated in the regional security complex and mainly directed towards achieving its larger global objectives. This work considers two classic examples: US engagement in the Persian Gulf region through its strategy of Dual Containment toward Iran and Iraq; and its policy of maintaining a strategic balance in South Asia through greater security interaction with Pakistan which is coupled with the attempts at shaping a defence framework cooperation arrangement with India. In both cases, the US has intervened in the unstable security complex of two regions, both of which are infested with considerable degree of intra-regional bilateral security predicaments. The US has sought to manipulate this precarious situation by enhancing the vulnerabilities of the regions to outside intervention by supporting both against each other.
Insecurity Communities of South Asia and the Middle East by Majid Sharifi Pdf
This book critically examines how US foreign policy has produced a regional regime of instability and insecurity in South Asia and the Middle East. It focuses on three interconnected zones of conflict—Afghanistan and Pakistan in South Asia, Iran and the Persian Gulf states, and Iraq and its neighbours. In a comprehensive historical survey, this work compares the governing behaviour of these states with that of the West, where the American foreign policy establishment has, in contrast, pushed for investing in collective security. The author studies various events throughout history such as the Taliban regime; the US-led war in Afghanistan; the Obama administration and Pakistan; the first and second Gulf wars; the Arab Spring, and the rise of ISIS to present a theoretical analysis of Washington’s consistent pursuit of multibalancing and regime change wars in the region. An important critical assessment of Western foreign policies, this book will be indispensable for students and researchers of US foreign policy, defense and security studies, strategic affairs, politics and international relations, political economy, nation-state building, identity studies, globalization studies, Middle East studies, and South Asian studies.
The Persian Gulf and Pacific Asia by Christopher Michael Davidson Pdf
A plethora of economic, diplomatic, cultural, and other highly pragmatic linkages are making the 'Asianization' of Asia a reality. Davidson demonstrates how the powerful connections that are being forged by the very eastern and western extremities of the continent are poised to become a central pillar of this process.
Security Community in the Persian Gulf and South Asian States by Majid Sharifi,Vandana Asthana,Kristin Edquist,A. C. Shukla Pdf
The work focuses on the Persian Gulf and South Asian States (PGSAS), including Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran, and The Gulf Cooperation Council States. Recognized as the site for the rise of radical Islam, terrorism, inter-state wars, nuclear proliferation, and civil wars, the region has become a threat to global security. Yet, there still lacks an grand strategy to build a regional security community in the region, which should be treated as a political unit in need of stable and interdependent alliance. After discussing the concept of security community, the authors investigate the role of international institutions and U.S. policies in the (in)security of the region. It argues that the U.S. should invest in creating a security community in the region as it did in post War Europe, concluding that this would be a feasible and practical solution to current insecurity not only in the region but also in the world. Written by experts, this timely work will appeal to anyone studying issues of international security as well as the politics of South Asia and the Gulf States.
Security Community in the Persian Gulf and South Asian States by Majid Sharifi,Vandana Asthana,Kristin Alisa Edquist,A. C. Shukla Pdf
This study examines the increasing involvement, since the end of the Cold War, of the United States in the security of the Persian Gulf and South Asian states (PGSAS). By comparing policy objectives with outcomes, the project finds that U.S. policy requires strategic altruism rather than divide-and-conquer realism, because the unintended consequences of the U.S.'s approach have been the creation of a pervasive insecurity regime--not only for the region, but also for the United States. The authors examine the specific policy areas of military security, economics and development, and democracy and human rights, and suggest that the needs to U.S. reconceptualise its grand strategy for the region as a security community, with the region's specific characteristics carefully considered. Written by experts, this timely work will appeal to anyone studying international security and foreign policy, as well as the politics of South Asia and the Gulf States.

As we move towards a world without superpowers, the dynamics within and between regions are of growing significance. Against this backdrop, this book explores the links between South Asia and the Gulf, which have existed for centuries but are undergoing important shifts in the transition to multipolarity. With a special focus on India, Pakistan, Iran, Bangladesh, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Sri Lanka and Oman, this volume brings together scholars from across these regions to investigate what the decentring world order means for the relationship between South Asia and the Gulf. It employs Regional Security Complex Theory to examine the changing global patterns of power and their impact on the inter-regional patterns of amity and enmity between states in South Asia and the Gulf. It employs both constructivist and realist approaches, seeking to understand how power and social processes influence the political and security linkages between these regions.
