A study of India’s post-independence defence policy and industrial capacity
Covering the period from 1947 onward, this study examines the domestic forces shaping Indian defence policy, with particular attention to the often-overlooked years between 1947 and 1962. It pairs policy history with an assessment of the country’s defence industrial base, framing procurement and strategic planning as products of wider national ambitions. The book advances the author’s argument that the pursuit of great-power status, more than affordable security, has guided India’s defence-policy choices. Published in 1994, it offers a historically situated examination of strategy, institutions, and military-industrial development.
