India and Western Europe: Engagement, Contestation, Cooperation

Jain, Rajendra K.

Containing seventeen chapters, this volume critically examines Indian economic, political relations, and defence cooperation with major West European countries—France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom as well as Austria, Belgium, Greece, Ireland, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, and Spain from 1947 to the present. It contains five thematic chapters dealing with major topical issues on Indian and European approaches towards issues related to trade, Russian energy, migration, Internet governance, and the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor. Filling a long-felt gap in the available literature, this book examines mutual perceptions, the complexity, the elements of convergence and divergence as well as the challenges and prospects of India’s relations with Western Europe.
