Abstract
The United States, as articulated in the 2012 US Department of Defense Strategic Guidance document, anticipates that India will be both an active partner in helping provide security in the Indian Ocean Region (IOR) and an “economic anchor” that will sustain growth in South Asia. This paper seeks to identify and analyze Indian perspectives on the state’s expected role by assessing the perceptions of Indian foreign and security policy experts in areas such as the US “pivot” to Asia, the 2008 US-India nuclear agreement, India’s “Look East” policy, and other pertinent regional issues.
