Moot to the book's architecture are the following questions: Are India's global policies in each of these fields shaped by institutions, driven by interests, or influenced by ideational factors? And to what extent are these factors primarily domestic, or do constraints, pressures, and expectations from the regional and global level of politics play a role as well? Looking at Prime Ministerial years of Manmohan Singh and Narendra Modi, the book examines India'sapproach to global governance and consequent policy-making in line with its own image and the world's image of India as a rising and global power.
