Summary

This volume, the first of its kind, discusses the rationale behind the decision to conduct nuclear tests and the subsequent impact on the South Asian region and the Gulf. It offers the perspectives of India, Pakistan, China, and the Gulf countries, and examines the theoretical framework of balance of power politics. These questions are of enormous significance given the current levels of tension in the Indian sub-continent.
