ANALYSIS
The scope and drivers of Indian
military modernization

obsession for power, be it economic, military or in power over opinion. Realists
say, ―Power is the currency of politics‖. Power is reflected through a number of
ways and means including economic and military strengths that enable a country
to maneuver aptly in international politics. Military modernization is the best way
of exhibiting military might. Whenever discussions of military modernization
arises one particular country, China, takes the lead. China‘s aspirations for
military modernization being reinforced by its phenomenal economic power and
its drive to attain a great power status stemming from its nationalistic fervor as
rooted in its history, fits into the power politics of the security calculation of the
Asia-Pacific region. Until recently, another aspiring regional player of South
Asia, India, is also flexing its military muscles which also call for proper
attention.
