Abstract

In the wake of its independence in 1947, India pursued a foreign policy based on nonalignment and with mixed outcomes. For the most part the policy alienated the country from much of the Western world. Nonalignment came under considerable stress in the wake of the Sino-Indian border war of 1962 but was not wholly abandoned. Only in the aftermath of the Cold War did the country end its commitment to this principle and adopt a more pragmatic foreign policy.
