The book examines the interaction between issues of internal politics and the external relations of states of the South Asian region. Contributors in their papers survey the manner in which issues of foreign policy and foreign policy interactions impinge on domestic politics and domestic policy processes. Some of the most serious foreign policy challenges in recent years have come from conflicts about the right of self-determination. Whereas formerly these conflicts were mainly associated with decolonization processes and contests for ethnic power-sharing in post-colonial states, they have now become the major problem of politics in the successor states of South Asia and elsewhere. The book also discusses the interpenetrated quality of international relations and domestic politics. Hitherto the literature dealing with this interaction has tended to concentrate on the impact of domestic politics and domestic structures of foreign policy. But the arrows flow both ways. They flow from domestic structure and policy toward international relations, and also from international relations toward domestic politics and structure. The book attempts to study the impact of it in the countries selected in the South Asia region.
