That gap has been filled by this volume edited by Amit Ahuja and Devesh Kapur, two scholars with outstanding credentials, covering the institutional, doctrinal, organizational, and other aspects of this contentious subject. The volume thus takes an integrated view of India's internal security. Its strength lies in its reliance on data, the coherence of its arguments, and the reliance on academic disciplines honed in other contexts. All in all, a significant book on an important subject that will become ever more relevant as the pace of change in India accelerates in years to come. * Shivshankar Menon, Former National Security Advisor and Foreign Secretary, Government of India *\u003cbr\u003eThe carefully researched essays in this book document the decline in many measures of internal violence in India but also disturbing changes in the use of force by the state. It should be read by any person interested in India today. * Stephen Peter Rosen, Harvard College Professor and Beton Michael Kaneb Professor of National Security and Military Affairs, Harvard University *\u003cbr\u003eThis is an extraordinarily good volume, bringing together experts on all aspects of India's internal security: from its expanding private security businesses, to its overstretched police forces, to the complex structures through which India's political, military, and intelligence leaders respond to internal security challenges. This volume goes far beyond description, to analyze the larger strategies behind these responses, and the ways in which India's internal security state affects Indian democracy, federalism, and the rights of all its citizens. Indispensable. * Steven Wilkinson, Professor of Political Science, Yale University *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eList of Figures  List of Tables  Acknowledgments  Abbreviations and Acronyms  Contributors    Chapter 1 The State and Internal Security in India  Amit Ahuja and Devesh Kapur    Chapter 2 Internal Security and India's Constitution  Raeesa Vakil    Chapter 3 The Persistence of the AFSPA  Anubha Bhonsle    Chapter 4 Role of MHA in Internal Security  Shakti Sinha    Chapter 5 Public Finances of Internal Security in India  Nirvikar Singh    Chapter 6 India's Internal Security in Comparative Perspective  Paul Staniland    Chapter 7 India's Internal Security Doctrine in Practice  Sushant Singh    Chapter 8 Military in Internal Security  Amit Ahuja and Srinath Raghavan    Chapter 9 Role of Central Armed Police Forces (CAPF) in India  Yashovardhan Azad    Chapter 10 The Indian Police: Managing Dilemmas of Internal Security  Akshay Mangla    Chapter 11 Riots \u0026amp; Rapid Action: The Special Wing of the Central Reserve Police  Nirvikar Jassal and Hanif Qureshi    Chapter 12 Protective Labor and its Correlates: A Statistical Portrait  Paaritosh Nath and Arjun Jayadev    Chapter 13 India's Intelligence in Internal Security  Saikat Datta    Chapter 14 Included but not Equal?
