This new and revised, second edition of the Routledge Handbook of China-India Relations provides a comprehensive, multi-disciplinary, and much-needed overview of relations between the two nations since 2020, marked by the Galwan Valley clash and ongoing border tensions.

Arguing for sustained leadership and a nuanced, scholarly understanding of both societies in order to foster stability and cooperation amid persistent rivalry, the book explores the bilateral relationship's scale, historical depth, and strategic complexity, emphasizing its global significance. Reflecting the consequential and multifaceted nature of the bilateral relationship, the book brings together twenty-seven original contributions by a wide range of experts in the field. The chapters demonstrate that China-India relations are more far-reaching and complicated than ever before, marked by both conflict and cooperation. Following a thorough introduction by the Editors, the handbook is divided into seven parts, which combine thematic and chronological principles into the following categories: historical overviews; strategic culture; core bilateral conflicts; military relations; economy and development; relations with third parties; and China, India, and global order. The chapters offer comparative analyses that highlight convergences and divergences in governance, strategic culture, and global order conceptions.

This handbook will be an essential reference work for scholars interested in International Relations, Asian Politics, Global Politics, and China-India relations.
