India’s dilemmas in an Asian century
The HinduIf 2022 was a momentous year for India and the rest of the world, 2023 is likely to further sharpen the geopolitical fault lines set in motion by the previous year. The geopolitical and economic rise of Asia coincides with several regional and global developments which have the potential to undermine the stability and prosperity India had hoped an Asian century would bring. A multipolar world/Asia with new and shifting alliances; formal, informal, secret, open and in-between pacts; and competing coalitions vying for dominance will invariably take away from the relative ‘stability’ of the current world order where the power of the U.S. is on the decline and that of China is on the rise. Delhi’s dilemmas New Delhi has consistently campaigned for a multipolar world where key Asian powers have a place at the high table of international politics. Third, if a bipolar world leads to great power accommodation between the U.S. and China, India’s situation could be worse off.
