Northeastern India And Its Neighbours: Negotiating Security And Development (Transition In Northeastern India)

India's Northeast has for long been fraught with internal security threats, economic underdevelopment, political volatility, and social unrest. This book makes an important breakthrough in evaluating the complexities of these challenges. It explores, through extensive fieldwork, the critical link between development and security within the context of the cross-border space shared with China, Myanmar, Bangladesh, Bhutan, and Nepal. It proposes forging economic initiatives and collaborations as a sustainable solution to the threats plaguing the region including security issues, illegal migration, illicit trade, militancy, drug trafficking, and ethnic conflicts.--Page 4 of cover.
