Summary:The author argues that the traditional geopolitical and military analysis of national security neglects the most fundamental threat to peace in South Asia—poverty. He covers both the problems of economic development and geopolitical relations, both within the region and with major powers.

However, analysis of international relations in a peaceful world should also include possible areas of cooperation.
