Publisher's Synopsis
The Journal of Defence Studies is now in its twelfth year of publication. Beginning as an annual issue in 2007, it was later expanded to a quarterly as it filled an obvious gap in defence and military studies in India. The
past 12 years have seen us publish articles on a variety of subjects and also expand the scope of the journal to cover the strategic and security studies domains, as these are not entirely divorced from defence studies. Our aim has been to encourage and facilitate deeper analysis and discussion on defence and military issues and, as much as possible, present an Indian perspective on the same. It is only pertinent that deeper engagement
and research on defence and military studies, and strategic and security studies take place in India and we hope, in the coming years, to bring that to both a specialist and non-specialist but informed audience.
