Heading East: Security, Trade and Environment between India and Southeast Asia, by Karen Stoll Farrell and Sumit Ganguly

Heading East, Security, Trade and Environment between India and Southeast Asia, co-edited by Sumit Ganguly and Karen Stoll Farrell, consisting of 11 chapters and one introductory note by the editors, broadly deals with India’s Look East/Act East Policy (LEP/AEP). More specifically, the book assesses the origin of this policy, its evolution and several aspects of India’s trade arrangements (both bilateral and regional or multilateral), connectivity, security dynamics and river water sharing concerns, particularly related to North-East India and its immediate neighbours Myanmar and Bangladesh.
