Through the use of precise maps, tables, archival materials, and scholarly research, it unravels the transformation of an ambiguous frontier into a contentious border and explores the reasons behind its relative pacification despite remaining unresolved. Unlike previous studies, this book offers a theoretical framework to explain the challenges in resolving interstate border disputes. By examining a diverse range of key actors, including state leaders, governing organizations, and the State itself, it demonstrates that their interests often lie in maintaining the status quo rather than pursuing a resolution, perpetuating the intractability of the border dispute. Given the growing prominence of China and India as global powers in the twenty-first century, a thorough examination of their major points of contention is more pertinent than ever. This book serves as a valuable resource for scholars, policymakers, and individuals interested in understanding the complexities and dynamics of the Sino-Indian border disputes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 549g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 210 x 148 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9789811674495\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2022\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stephen P.
