A Pivot to India The US-India Strategic Partnership and Multipolarity in Asia

Abstract

The United States, as articulated in the 2012 US Department of Defense Strategic Guidance document, anticipates that India will be both an active partner in helping provide security in the Indian Ocean Region (IOR) and an economic anchor that will sustain growth in South Asia. This paper seeks to identify and analyze Indian perspectives on the states expected role by assessing the perceptions of Indian foreign and security policy experts in areas such as the US pivot to Asia, the 2008 US-India nuclear agreement, India's Look East policy, and other pertinent regional issues.
