Abstract

The adage ‘big stick policy’ (in the sense of ‘speak softly but carry a big stick’, advocated by Theodore Roosevelt, 26th President of the USA), though buried by political scientists, is fast returning to the arena of international politics, with savvy moves being made by the new government of India. With the aim of neutralizing the influence and power of China in Asia, India is making swift changes under the govern of Narendra Modi to harness anti-Chinese waves. To substantiate this, there has been a flip-flop in traditional foreign policy. Globalization is facilitating a newfound synergy for India. The USA, which swayed under Chinese tempest during the last decade, is reasserting its ‘numero uno’ position now that its economy is in recovery mode. Naturally, India is the USA’s ally in alien Asia; however, India comprehends the USA’s perception of it’s growth story.
