With the process of democratic transition in Myanmar since 2011 and the ongoing Rohingya crisis, issues related to cross-border insurgency are one of the most important factors that determine bilateral ties between the two neighbouring countries. The volume discusses a diverse range of themes – historical dimensions of cooperation; contested territories, resistance and violence in india–myanmar borderlands; ethnic linkages; political economy of india–myanmar cooperation; and act East policy – to examine the prospects and challenges of the strategic Partnership between India and Myanmar, and analysis further possibilities to move forward. The chapters further look at cross-border informal commercial exchanges, public health, population movements, and problems of connectivity and infrastructure projects.
