To define national security and uncover the underlying causes of inter-state strifes and subnational conflicts in various parts of the globe in cold war parlance is grossly inadequate and is also insufficient to combat the mounting challenges and threats stemming from catastrophic environmental degradation. Revisioning the conventional cold war understanding and logic, this book endeavours to unearth the predominant causes and factors, so far sidelined, of intra-state conflicts between Bangladesh and India, that is, environmental degradation and scarcity of renewable resources. It establishes the linkage between environmental degradation and inter-state conflict.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR Narottam Gaan
Narottam, Gaan, Ph.D. and D.Litt. has been teaching in political science in different colleges since 1978. Not being lured by the lucre of Allied Services (ICS) in 1983 he left the job to stay in the academic life. Publication of innumerable articles and papers in various journals in India and abroad, and five books including this stands as a testament to his scholarship and deep acquaintance with a wide ranging subjects. Privileged to visit Austria, Hungary, Slovakia and Croatia on an Austrian government scholarship, he attended many conferences and programmes abroad and awarded a Certificate of Achievement in International Studies from European University Centre for Peace Studies Stadtschlaining, Austria. His presnet post doctoral work on environment, security, development, peace and economic rethinking and various aspects of International Relation entities him to be one of the few celebrated scholars working in India. His next work, Environmental Issues and Challenges: A Critique on International Relation Theories, another feather in his cap of achievement, is demonstrative of his unceasing efforts and unflinching determination to scale the intellectual and academic heights. His new and unconventional ideas on a vast array of subjects ranging from national and international politics to humanity, environment, human rights, security, and development and getting coverage in the daily news papers and journals to the utmost appreciation of both the readers and the layman, show his deep sense of commitment to the subject and concerns with the critical problems plaguing the humanity at present and his being opened up to the inward traffic from other disciplines.
