India's China Challenge: A Journey through China's Rise and What It Means for India
Author, journalist Ananth Krishnan's book fills critical gaps in our perception of how China perceives India today, and has done so historically.
Author, journalist Ananth Krishnan's book fills critical gaps in our perception of how China perceives India today, and has done so historically. He first moved to China in the summer of 2008. In the years that followed, he had a ringside view of the country's remarkable transformation. He reported from Beijing for a decade, for the India Today and The Hindu. This gave him a privileged opportunity that few Indians have had – to travel the length and breadth of the country, beyond the glitzy skyscrapers of Shanghai and the grand avenues of Beijing that greet most tourists, to the heart of China's rise.
This book is hiss attempt at unpacking India's China challenge, which is four-fold: the political challenge of dealing with a one-party state that is looking to increasingly shape global institutions; the military challenge of managing an unresolved border; the economic challenge of both learning from China's remarkable and unique growth story and building a closer relationship; and the conceptual challenge of changing how we think about and engage with our most important neighbour.
India's China Challenge tells the story of a complex political relationship, and how China — and its leading opinion-makers — view India. It looks at the economic dimensions and cultural connect, and the internal political and social transformations in China that continue to shape both the country's future and its relations with India.
Ananth Krishnan says, 'The coronavirus pandemic and the recent events on the border have reminded us, perhaps in the worst way possible, of how China impacts our lives. Unfortunately, it only seems to take a crisis for us to pay close attention to India's biggest neighbour. This is my attempt to unpack the country's changing political, economic and social transformations over the decade that I lived there, and to explain how China's rise impacts us in ways we often don't realise.'
