The India-Pakistan Dispute Over Jammu And Kashmir And The United States
| Title: | The India-Pakistan Dispute Over Jammu And Kashmir And The United States | | Author: | Prithvi Ram Mudiam | | Publication: | Global Change, Peace and Security / Routledge, part of the Taylor & Francis Group | | Enumeration: | Vol. 15, No. 3, pp. 263 - 276 / October 2003 | | Abstract: | The audacious and devastating attacks by Islamic militants on the World Trade Center (WTC) and the Pentagon in the United States on September 11, 2001 constitute a watershed event in modern world history whose repercussions are still being felt everywhere. The subsequent attempts by the United States to build a global coalition against terrorism and the military action that it initiated in Afghanistan which saw the collapse of the Taliban regime in Kabul had far-reaching implications for the geopolitics of the region and far beyond. This paper, however, seeks to focus on the American decision to convert Pakistan yet again into a 'frontline state', this time in its fight against international terrorism, and the implications of this partnership for India-Pakistan relations, particularly their dispute over Jammu and Kashmir (hereafter 'Kashmir').
