Masud Sarker meticulously charts the evolution of closer Indo-US relations during the administrations of George W. Bush and Barack Obama. The author employs a qualitative framework to elucidate these shifts and shed light on the factors that have contributed to the strengthened bilateral relationship, particularly in the aftermath of decades of strained relations between the two estranged democracies. The book compares and evaluates two key influences that shaped the rapprochement between India and the US: the 9\/11 attacks and the global structural changes that followed the Cold War. It assesses which of these influences has had the most significant impact on closer Indo-US relations over the past two decades. This book promises to be a captivating read, offering an in-depth analysis of Indo-US relations since India's independence up to the Obama administrations, based on extensive use of primary sources, including interviews with key individuals involved in US foreign policy-making processes. While the existing literature has primarily focused on the civil-nuclear deal as a pivotal moment in Indo-US relations, this book presents an alternative narrative for improving Indo-US relations in the 21st century and unravels the ongoing puzzle. Moreover, the author highlights the role of the Indian diaspora as a third party in strengthening Indo-US relations, adding an intriguing dimension to the discourse.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 581g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 237 x 157 x 25 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781666912760\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Masud Sarker","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44130902016250,"sku":"9781666912760","price":93.33,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1679474573079_book.jpg?v=1679997160","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/us-pivot-toward-india-after-911-from-a-dubious-relationship-to-a-strategic-partnership-9781666912760","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
