Basrur, Rajesh M. and Cohen, Stephen Philip

Abstract
This book considers the nuclear futures of India and Pakistan, respectively. Noting the multiplicity of actors affecting India’s future nuclear posture, Basrur and Cohen propose three basic scenarios and then consider how variations in ten of the most important factors – including India’s relations with Pakistan and China, the role of the United States, and the number and types of nuclear weapons – could shape which of the three ideal-type scenarios India will most closely approximate.
