Description

This book represents an effort to build on existing partnerships between African countries and India and to explore new areas of convergence for mutual engagement. It originated from the First India-Africa Strategic Dialogue hosted by the Institute for Defence Studies and Analyses, New Delhi in November 2011. It brings together Indian and African perspectives on global, regional and bilateral issues of strategic relevance to both sides. It also seeks answers to several bilateral and regional issues, such as: How  successful has UN peacekeeping been in resolving conflicts in Africa?  What are the causes of the rise of piracy in the Indian Ocean region and is a regional solution in sight? Since economic engagement has been seen as a crucial driver of relations between Africa and India, how can this cooperation be enhanced?  Does the Indian diaspora play an important role in strengthening the bilateral relations? It is hoped that this volume will help to further the reader’s understanding of the growing ties between India and Africa.
