The 21st century has witnessed dynamic transformations in global geopolitics, with emerging powers redefining the traditional contours of international relations. "Analyzing Global Geopolitical Power Shifts: The Role of India-Pakistan-China in a Changing World Order" delves into the intricate interplay between three pivotal nations—India, Pakistan, and China—within the framework of an evolving multipolar world. This edited volume brings together insightful perspectives from a diverse range of scholars, offering a comprehensive analysis of strategic, economic, and security dimensions shaping South and East Asia's geopolitical environment. Through seventeen meticulously researched chapters, the book explores critical issues such as India’s multi-alignment diplomacy, the implications of China’s assertive regional policies, the role of emerging technologies like Artificial Intelligence in security, and the strategic importance of regions like the Himalayas, Bay of Bengal, and South China Sea. Key themes include China’s Kashmir and hydro-politics, India’s defence modernization, the trilateral dynamics in space exploration, and evolving institutional frameworks such as the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation. It also ventures into areas often underexplored, including the impact of tourism in geopolitically sensitive regions and the Indo-Taiwan technology partnership. This book serves as an essential resource for academics, policymakers, strategic analysts, and students of international relations who seek a nuanced understanding of how India, Pakistan, and China are influencing and being influenced by global power shifts in the contemporary era.
