Declassified documents are arguably the premier vantage for understanding global governance, current security concerns and the international market. The United States and India: A History through Archives includes papers from the Presidential Libraries—FDR to Carter, the White House, National Security Council, Office of Strategic Services, Central Intelligence Agency, selections from Foreign Relations Department`s Diplomatic Papers, reports of US Agency for International Development, Divisional Reports from the Department of State and cables from several US embassies.
The book explores the following topics: US Foreign Policy, US & UK relations, US & USSR in the near and Far East, Nehru, India`s Foreign Policy, India and Pakistan, and Aid. The volume is the first in a series to provide declassified documents spanning the Franklin D Roosevelt-Carter years. Other volumes in the series will examine India-China relations, India-Pakistan conflicts of 1965 and 1971, Kashmir, Nuclear Proliferation and the Soviet and Chinese influence on India-US relations.
