Rudra Chaudhuri’s Forged in Crisis depicts how the relationship between India and the United States has evolved since 1947. Summary of the Book This title observes a series of crises that eventually led to extensive changes in India’s approach to the United States, outlining the contours of what is possibly the overbearing rapport between America and the global South. It offers a new interpretation of India’s progress in foreign affairs under the supervision of Prime Ministers like Nehru, Indira Gandhi, Vajpayee and Manmohan Singh. The author, based on his meticulous research, maps Indian negotiating styles and actions and how it fashioned informed decisions essential to its strategic interest. It depicts vividly India’s stances during some of the most important events: from the Korean War in 1950 to the many debates within the subcontinent on sending troops to Iraq in 2003, and from the loss of land to China and the ensuing talks on Kashmir with Pakistan in 1962-63, to the signing of a civil nuclear pact with Washington in the year 2008.
