520 _aNon-alignment is a new, post-war phenomenon in international relations. Yet some sixty and odd sovereign nations, about half of the world's, subscribe to this principle. It cannot be gainsaid that non-alignment has emerged as a major. force in international politics. v-Though a widespread movement in world politics, it remains sui Generisas a foreign policy mode. While son're of its features are universally common as happens in every genus, its characteristics vary from species to species. This book presents a study of the Indian species which, however, is especially significant as the first and the most important offshoot of the genus. At the same time it is a comprehensive study of India's foreign policy at work right from the formation of the first national government of the country closely to the date. The importance of the work lies in its scientific approach to the subject. Its analysis of the roots of India's non-alignment in about a generation's foreign policy thought of the Indian National Congress antidating the inception of the present foreign policy is the first of its kind and is fascinating in that. The quest of the meaning of India's non-alignment through the perusal of its development perceived in seven phases is based on a quintuple framework of analysis which the author has developed as a result of his pursuit of the contemporary theories of International Relations. In each phase of development non-alignment has been studied in terms of. domestic and external settings, the state of growth as a concept, the applied side and the reactions. The work halts at a note of suspense in the postscript. Examining the trends of the recent past, Dr. Mallik pertinently asks the reader to wait and see if they portend to erosion or renovation of non-alignment in India's foreign policy.
