Modi and the Reinvention of Indian Foreign Policy by Ian Hall
After coming to power in 2014, Narendra Modi unexpectedly set out trying to reinvent Indian foreign policy to align it more closely with Hindu nationalist ideology. This book examines the intellectual underpinnings of this attempted reinvention, its motivations, and its impact on the Modi government's desire to make India a 'leading power' in international affairs.
"This is essential readingIan Hall brilliantly links the domestic imperatives driving current Indian foreign policy to the challenges India faces in a rapidly changing world." Katharine Adeney, University of Nottingham
“Hall tells the story of an ambitious leader’s efforts to reinvent himself as much as his country’s foreign policy and demonstrates that this project of reinvention has clear constraints and costs for India both at home and abroad.” Kate Sullivan de Estrada, University of Oxford.
“This insightful book, in charting Modi’s endeavour to transform Indian foreign policy and politics in his own image, underlines the perennial dialectic between ideational and structural forces in international politics.” Rajesh Basrur, University of Oxford and Nanyang Technological University
