  • "Changing Patterns of Warfare between India and Pakistan analyzes evolving doctrines and new and disruptive technologies (including nuclear deterrence), and how these impact the conflict dynamics between India and Pakistan. The conflict dynamics have shifted from major and minor wars to insurgencies and surgical strikes which points towards an increased frequency of crises and a reduction in the scale of violence. New technologies such as nuclear submarines, aircraft carriers, ballistic missile defence (BMD) systems, multiple independently targetable re-entry vehicles (MIRVs), anti-satellite weapons (ASAT), hypersonic missiles, cyber technologies, Artificial Intelligence and lethal autonomous weapons (LAWS) have all complicated crisis dynamics. Further, the employment of India's compellence strategy is an indication of a change in its nuclear postures that indicates smart strikes are now more likely. The phenomenon of surgical strikes makes it unclear how disruptive technologies will gain direct/indirect future military control, hence challenging the deterrence stability between India and Pakistan. Against this backdrop, the authors evaluate the ways and means by which crisis and deterrence stability is achieved between India and Pakistan, and predict how this conflict may develop in the future. This book will be of interest to all those researching and working in the fields of security studies, strategic studies, nuclear policy, deterrence thinking and proliferation/non-proliferation aspects of the nuclear weapons programme within South Asia. It will also be relevant for the academic community, policy makers, diplomats, members of INGOs/NGOs, professional research institutes and organizations working on Indo-Pakistan relations."
