Summary / Abstract (Note) | Thus, India has potential to be considered as an important power in the international system, but it is imperative for its policy makers to visualize them in proper perspective and realized them with skilful diplomatic maneuvering. For this it has to shun its defensive posture and reluctance to transform its capacities into capabilities. This can only be attained through its strong domestic input, along with enhanced external capabilities to engage its regional and global clout in its favour. Thus, India can neither achieve this status by just becoming a 'hard' or a 'soft' power alone, but can attain it by becoming a 'smart' power utilizing the virtues of both. |
