| Summary / Abstract (Note) | In the coming years, India's maritime-military power is likely to play an increasingly crucial role in shaping the geo-political, economic and security environment in the maritime-configured Indo-Pacific region. This paper aims to analyse India's maritime security strategy promulgated by the Indian Navy in October 2015. The analysis goes beyond the text of the document, to provide a more profound understanding of four key underpinnings of India's strategy: historical and societal factors, maritime geography, political geography/jurisdiction and the China factor. The analysis begins with examining the salient changes in India's maritime-strategic outlook since its first strategy document was published in 2007. |
