India's Search for Power: Indira Gandhi's Foreign Policy 1966-1982: Indira Gandhi's Foreign Policy, 1966-82

India's Search for Power is a scholarly and analytic assessment of Indira Gandhi's foreign policy during her two tenures in power (1966-77 and 1980 to date). Dr Mansingh has provided a well balanced and comprehensive account of the structure and effects of her foreign policy which goes a long way to becoming the definitive study of the subject. In his foreword Selig Harrison described the book as 'a significant contribution to the literature on South Asia, one that will be of enduring interest to students of India's foreign policy as well as to those interested in the larger problems of relations between developed and developing countries.' Surjit Mansingh first examines Indira Gandhi's foreign policy legacy, and the way in which she modified it. Major foreign policy objectives, and the instruments at Mrs Gandhi's disposal in achieving those ends are also outlined. In the final chapter the book examines Mrs Gandhi's economic diplomacy and India's relationship with institutions such as the World Bank, the IMF, and the EEC. Surjit Mansingh.
