China has shown dramatic economic, and expanded its political influences at both regional and international levels. More importantly, it has accelerated its military build-up since the 1990s, and widened a gap between military capabilities of China and those of neighboring countries. In response to China's strengthening military power and capability, India, one of the most potential competitors for regional hegemony, is at a crossroads. How has India perceived China's remarkable military build-up? And, based on India's perception, how has it responded? This article argues that, relying on the logic of neorealism, India has seen China's military build-up as a significant threat to its national interest and security. After exploring India's strategies in response to China's strengthening military power, empirical analysis reveals that, facing a threat from China's growing military power, India's response could be characterized as internal and external balancing against China.展开更多

Modi's great power strategy is deeply influenced by the Indian realistic international political outlook and, to a certain extent, reflects the governing philosophy of the Bharatiya Janata Party. The great power strategy is Modi's governing foundation and governing style, embedding Modi distinctive personal style. Under the influence of the great power strategy, China and India have increased their economic cooperation scope, widening the forms of public diplomacy, with an obvious geopolitical collision; India is taking more measures to check China.展开更多
