SAARC and India: Policy Issues hinge on Security and Democracy

Author

Abstract

The entire project of SAARC is dependent on India’s capacity to bind the neighbouring states in multiple networks of ties to promote regional cooperation. India not only shares frontiers with all the SAARC countries, but also ethnic, linguistic, cultural and religious histories. If India can persuade SAARC members to view south Asia as a viable regional entity, it can promote projects of development cooperation. But that is easier said than done. For, the success of such an enterprise depends on how well the problems pertaining to security and democracy are addressed.
