About the Book
Nepal is geo-strategically located between the two main drivers of the new Asian Century – India and China. While China has already reserved a seat at the global high table, India will soon reclaim its place there. Both India and China will reshape the global political, economic and strategic order in days to come. Nepal, being situated between these two giants, will have larger implications as recently, both, stood eyeball to eyeball on the issue of Doklam. In this context, the book aims to understand the complexities and contradictions in Nepal’s foreign policy in the changing global power structure and posits Nepal’s relations with the great powers.
The book consists of 11 chapters by scholars from India, Nepal, US and Australia on Nepal’s relations with regional and great powers such as India, China, Australia, US, France, UK, Germany and European Union.
