A paradigm shift in policy making in consultation with the people of NER and not through the prism of security concerns could make the North-East to be the gateway to South-East Asia .The chapters in this volume will give an overview of India's Act East Policy from economic and strategic perspective and enumerate on issues and areas whereby the North-Eastern states can effectively contribute to India's Act East Policy. The book will interest researchers and students of politics and economics and particularly those concerned with India's NER.
