  • Introduction The structure of the rivalry In search of sea power Tacking to the blue waters Maritime nuclear power India's Pacific ambitions China eyes the Indian Ocean Circling the strategic islands Contesting the littoral Mitigating the security dilemma Ordering the Indo-Pacific Samudra manthan
  • "Rising China and emerging India are becoming major maritime powers. As they build large navies to secure their growing interests, both nations are roiling the waters of the Indo-Pacific -- the vast littoral stretching from Africa to Australasia. Invoking a tale from Hindu mythology -- Samudra Manthan, or, to churn the ocean -- the author tells the story of a Sino-Indian rivalry spilling over from the Great Himalayas into the Indian and Pacific Oceans. He examines the prospects of mitigating the tensions and constructing a stable Indo-Pacific order. America, the dominant power in the area, is being drawn into the unfolding Sino-Indian competition. Despite the huge differences in the current naval capabilities of China, India, and the United States, the author argues that the three countries are locked in a triangular struggle destined to mold the future Indo-Pacific."
