This Indian internal growth path is however highly dependent on global
peace and stability because if conflict breaks out at the systemic
level, this would have a devastating effect on international trade on
which India depends for much of its present economic development.
Therefore, India has a huge stake/incentive in maintaining a 'peaceful'
international order which can support and sustain its internal growth.
This requires an urgent rethink on some of the old concepts that has
dominated Indian strategic thinking like its 'non-alignment' based
foreign policy. While 'non-alignment' was a prudent policy for India to
adopt during the Cold War, when it had just emerged from colonialism
with a weak economy and polity, and therefore aligning itself with
either one of the superpowers created enormous challenges for the
construction of a confident self-image, such a policy will be
counter-productive to India in the present context. The India of today,
with a distinctive self-image, a growing middle class, an emergent
economy and growing military strength should actively 'align' with
like-minded countries and build partnerships in order to maintain the
present peaceful structure of international politics
